Due to the lack of any class of nobles in the present-day Inquisition, usage of these terms varies a lot depending on the historical and geographical context. In the Chlouvānem territories, historically there have been many different noble ranks with various designations, as each broad region had its own terms and conventions. The term ''ėmīlāmita'' (derived from ''ėmīla'' "tiger") is used for nobility in this historical context only. There is no broad term for "nobility" today (''pūgāsilāṇa'', "ensemble of kings", comes closest) and the terms are either those borrowed from Skyrdagor or - increasingly - the original designations are simply adapted and kept as such. | |||
* ''pūgāsis'' — king, queen (< [[Skyrdagor|Sky]]. ''pyl gavszi'' "king of all", originally the Emperor of Greater Skyrdagor). The most common term used for present-day royalty, including all Evandorian countries which still have a monarchy. | |||
* ''pūs'' — king, queen (< Sky. ''pyl'' "king"), used exclusively for Aksalbor and Arkjatar (the only former Greater Skyrdegan countries which have royalty). | |||
* ''šåkham'' — king, typically used for most historical Chlouvānem kingdoms in the Plain. | |||
* ''šåkhisseh'' — queen, typically used for most historical Chlouvānem kingdoms in the Plain. | |||
