Duchies and dukedoms are two completely different concepts. ｀｀

Even though there is little difference in hard indicators such as area, population, and even military strength, the title of the lord is also the same as "duke" or "grand duke", but the duchy is an independent country, the top administrative system on the big 6, and the duke is a vassal of the state, subject to the rule of people, and loyal to people.

Just like the former Duchy of Anlan, Grand Duke Onessa can associate with King Nacini on an equal footing, while Duke Drano is a courtier of Snowton and must obey even if he is dissatisfied with his orders.

The difference lies in the "establishment of the state".

After going through this procedure, the duke can be officially promoted to the principality, and the original grand duke will be promoted to the lord of the country, so as to obtain the same status as the rulers of other countries on the big 6.

Sounds good, but there are few kings who are willing to take the initiative to give the power of "opening a government and building a country" to their dukes and lords. After all, no one is willing to weaken their strength and do such a good thing of adult beauty. Therefore, in the history of the Big 6, it was basically the powerful duke lords, the weak kings were held hostage, and even the emperors issued this kind of edict, so as to break away from the original kingdom and achieve the founding hegemony.

However, it is obvious that King Nacini is not weak, on the contrary, he is now unprecedentedly strong, and his control over the empire has also reached a fairly high level.

Therefore, everyone in the field, including Count Dalges, who knelt down to listen to the seal, turned their eyes on Nacini and waited for his explanation.

And he only used a simple sentence to answer everyone's questions.

"If the north and the south are unified, I will be the emperor. ”

The young King Snowton, standing on a ten-foot high platform, lightly left such a sentence. So all the confusion vanished. All doubts turned into joy, and inside and outside the square, whether nobles or commoners, generals or soldiers, all roared for the king's iron-blooded pride. Applause.

Above the Big 6, there are many countries, and the titles are also very different. According to the usual convention, the big 6 can be called the emperor, the dominant party can be called the king, the one who has more than 500 miles of torn soil can be called the duke, and again, it can only be called "city" or "leader". Steal a corner of peace, and die at dawn and night.

According to this standard, in the history of 10,000 years, the only people who can be called "emperors" are the Elven Empire 10,000 years ago, and the subsequent rise of the Magic Empire, only these two examples, and no rest.

After this. The Holy See of Light had drawn up a strategy for the "Empire of Light", and Snowton was equally ambitious. Therefore, the name of the country was set as "empire", but the north and south were deadlocked, so Snowton's successive rulers only dared to call "king", but did not dare to be crowned emperor.

Now the North and the South are facing each other. It has been a thousand years, and in addition to Snowton, Buyada, as well as Sethstian, have also changed their country names to "Emperor". His ambition is clear. Of course, they are not even as good as Snowton, so they are only called "empires", but they are essentially at the level of kingdoms.

The only exception comes from the Holy Duchy of Ian, which is essentially a kingdom but is automatically relegated to a "principality", and it seems that the power of religion is truly extraordinary.

Having said that, since King Nacini is full of confidence and is about to be promoted from "king" to "emperor", it is not a big deal for one of his dukes to be promoted to the next level at the same time. What's more, Delanor is a family of founding dukes and has sufficient qualifications, and the relationship between Althea and the king is even more extraordinary, as long as Queen Catherina doesn't say anything, no one else has the right to blame.

Allegri, who stood on the sidelines, looked at Nacini's sculptural face, but felt that he was doing more than just saying it.

Could it be that the king is worried that after Catroman rises to prominence with the help of the Southern Expedition, it will be unfavorable to Athea?

He sighed softly, lowered his head, and continued to study the staff in his hand.

"Arrogance!"

In front of the White Tower, under the flower tree, Innedir flicked his sleeves and was furious, "The north and the south are unified, and I will be the emperor", when this sentence came out of Nacini's mouth, he felt deeply that he was offended.

The princes and magnates and clergy next to them all looked at their noses and noses, and were silent. Within the "Holy Alliance", the prestige of the archbishops of the Holy See is extremely high, almost no different from the emperor, and what is even more terrifying is that they are the only people who can interpret and convey the "divine will", almost all of them are peerless powerhouses, which makes people respect and fear.

Of course, reverence is one thing, and obedience is another. Compared with their own interests, these princes and magnates dare to turn their backs on even the gods, let alone just a spokesperson.

Seeing that there was no answer around him, Innedir became even more annoyed, and his face, which had always been as warm as jade, showed a rare flush.

"The archbishop is at ease for the time being," Finally, a chubby priest came out and gave him a step down, "The parade should be about to begin." ”

Innedil let out a light breath and temporarily suppressed the churning emotion. He knew that it was not good to be angry like this, but when faced with this group of wine bags and rice bags, he always couldn't hold back.

"By the way, Todd, how is the rebuilding of the New Army of Light going?" asked Innedir, who had regained his composure, in a slow voice. The elite hunters that Todd brought back are now the backbone of the New Army of Light, and in order to improve the efficiency of preparing for war, he assigned them to be in charge of the rebuilding of the army.

"The establishment has been basically restored, and the number of newly replenished soldiers has reached ninety percent," the chubby Todd stepped forward and reported respectfully, "In just three months, they will be able to have initial combat effectiveness, and if there is the cooperation of the priest troops, the combat effectiveness of the new army in the defense battle will not be much worse than that of the elite troops." ”

"Well done. He replied in a practical and detailed manner, and Innedil nodded approvingly. It seems that within the Holy See, there are still people with real talents and learning.

Todd retreated to his seat and quietly wiped the sweat from his forehead, it seemed that what he had memorized yesterday had really worked.

"The parade began. I don't know who it was, but I reminded me softly. The eyes of everyone in the audience looked at the fluctuating light curtain at the same time.

After the canonization ceremony, King Nacini briefly summed up a few words and ordered the parade to begin. The earth-shattering war drums, the sound of the sound, the horn of Qingyue, echoed endlessly, and this much-anticipated highlight was finally staged.

At the same time, the four platforms in the middle of the square have also changed slightly.

They stood on either side of the high platform where King Nacini was, and there was no one on them, and there was no special arrangement, but now, with the sound of trumpets and war drums, a banner suddenly rose on the platform on the left.

On the other hand, a flag embroidered with galloping horses. (To be continued!)
