    It’s a fairly common title, so you should know what it is if you were born West of Turkey.

      Ah, you see I was born east of Turkey where titles mean nothing despite being part of the Commonwealth.

      Bud, the US literally outlawed aristocratic titles. And good riddance to them. The only time a US citizen sees a word like ‘marquis’ is in a world history class in college.

        Which shows how poor your public education is. The monarchy was disbanded in Brazil in the year 1889; We still learn about it in grade school history.
