Noble Multiplicity Act: 3855

Lawbook: III. H.
H. Multiple Titles of Nobility.

1. No Shirithian shall rule over more than one subdivision with a single exception. In the event that a subdivision is without a ruling Noble, the ruling Noble of the subdivision above it shall take rule over the vacant subdivision. The citizens of the subdivision shall have one Shirithian week to decide upon a new ruling Noble, after which time, the subdivision goes under the direct control of the Kaiser until a new Noble is appointed.
2. A Shirithian is allowed to hold titles in fiefdoms other than their own as long as these are below the rank of Lesser Noble. There is no restriction on the number of these titles they may hold as they do not affect the Imperial Government of Shireroth.
Shall become.
H. Multiple Titles of Nobility.

1. No Shirithian shall hold multiple titles of nobility at or above the rank of Lesser-Noble, except when said titles are in a direct line of precedent within a single Duchy or fief.
2. A Shirithian is allowed to hold multiple titles below the rank of Lesser-Noble even if said titles are not in a direct line of precedent within a single Duchy or fief.
Just cleaning things up. The old rules are awkward and don't fit that well with the currect system. This still allows someone to be a count in 2+ duchies. Just not a Baron or duke in two different places.

Section 2 is unnecessary. Anything not prohibited is allowed.

And yet we have a habit of getting into arguments about it...

Yes, because people insist on arguing points of law without any knowledge of the Shirerithian legal system.
