>Duke of the Flies

You clearly don't understand how the aristocracy works. A duke is higher than a simple "lord." Thus, Duke of the Flies would be a step above Lord of the Flies.

>> No.1804782

>>1804779
Oh, apologies. Besides, the aristocracy is a silly and outdated system anyway, I live in the UK and could not give two shits about the monarchy and the aristocracy.

>> No.1804784

>>1804782
I appreciate the system regardless. Still, I see what you were trying to do. It's not a big deal, but duke is pretty much as high as you can get in the English aristocracy, beside actual royalty.

>> No.1804788

>>1804784
Why do you appreciate it? It's a vestigial reminder of the time when an essentially oligarchical society pissed all over us serfs.

I like Medieval culture and a part of me enjoys the last vestments of it. I will admit that in the next fifty years, I believe it will no longer exist--in England.. The monarchy might persist beyond that. Kingship is much older and I think appeals to be people on a much deeper level than a system of hierarchy based on who your father happened to be. Still, even countries without official titles hold to notions of aristocracy, so it might hold on longer than I think. Frankly, I like a system that says so-and-so is better than me because he can trace his lineage back five hundred years rather than one that says Joe Nobody is better than me because his daddy was a director in the forties.
