'''IMPERIAL DECREE 943: Imperial Duchy of Brookshire'''<br><br>

The [[The Kaiser|Kaiser]], as ruler of this [[Imperial Republic]], only enjoys zir ancient autocratic prerogative within the [[Subdivision#Imperial Dominions|Dominions]] of [[Shireroth]]. And some of those Dominions are the personal domain of the most trusted and loyal Shirerithians. Aside from [[Shirekeep]] and the [[Skyla Islands]], the Kaiser has few locations to rule as Kaisers are meant to, with absolute and divinely ordained control.

Therefore, I do hereby separate several eastern subdivisions from the Dominion of [[Lichbrook]]: Overdolor, [[Monty Crisco]], [[Kralizec]], and [[Musica]]. The two islands of [[Ž ]]and [[Azarea]] are also separated from Lichbrook.

Overdolor, Monty Crisco, Kralizec, Musica, Ž, Azarea, and the Skyla Islands are reincorporated into an [[Subdivision#Imperial Dominions|Imperial Dominion]], to be known as the Imperial [[Duchy]] of [[Brookshire]], ruled directly by the Kaiser.

The Imperial Duchy of Brookshire will serve as the Kaiser's 'personal imperial state' to be used by the Kaiser and the [[Imperial Household]] to enrich, expand, and enlarge the power, wealth, prestige, and glory of the Kaisership.

The Kaiser may appoint a Governor to administer Brookshire. The [[Prefect of Shirekeep]] shall have the same rights and responsibilities over the [[Skyla Islands]] as that office has over the City of [[Shirekeep]].

Altea Lomax is appointed as the first Governor of Brookshire.

The title "Duke of Brookshire" is added to the Kaiser's titles. The Kaiser may also grant this title to zir heir.

IN WITNESS OF THE SUBLIME MAGNIFICENCE OF OUR LORD THE RADIANT SUN WHEREOF<br>
We have caused the Seal of the Steward to be affixed to this Decree which We have signed with Our Hand.<br>
Given at the [[Raynor's Keep|Keep]] this 10th Day of Laemill in the year after the death of Norton one thousand six hundred and fifty.
