'''Westarctican Arms''' refers primarily to the national coat of arms. To a lesser degree, the term can be used to refer to the arms of individuals, as they exist under the grants and rules of [[Heraldry in Westarctica|Westarctican heraldry]].

Arms for [[Peerage of Westarctica|peers of Westarctica]] are created by the [[Ellsworth King of Arms]].

Peerage of Westarctica

2026-06-08T00:38:49Z

Krigsvold: /* Dukes and Duchesses */ Added Rees

[[File:Peers Collage 2025.jpg|600px|thumb|Collage showing a small selection of Westarctica's peers as of 2025]]
The '''Peerage of Westarctica''' comprises all noble titles created in [[Westarctica]] from 2004 to the present day. The institution is technically older than Westarctica itself, having come into existence when the first noble titles were created for citizens of the [[Achaean Territory of Antarctica]] in 2001, although most of these early titles were abolished in 2004.

Peers are recognized as having a voice in the nation's public debates, and their opinions, advice, and counsel, when offered, are to be taken into consideration by the [[Grand Duke of Westarctica|Sovereign]] (who may or may not follow this counsel, but is expected to at least hear and weigh it).

In 2023, management and oversight of the Peerage of Westarctica was brought under the [[Royal Household of Grand Duke Travis]].

==History of the Peerage==
The Peerage of Westarctica has been known by several different names since its creation.

During the era when Westarctica was known as the [[Achaean Territory of Antarctica]], the collected nobles were simply known as "the Nobility." In 2002, when the [[Achaean Royal Charter]] was decreed, the name was formalized as "the [[Baronage]]." This name was retained in the [[Grand Ducal Mandate]] of 2004. The Mandate also retired the title of "Earl," and those holding the rank were renamed "Counts."

In September 2012, when the first [[Charter of Westarctica]] was decreed, the nobles were labeled simply "nobility," however, in the second revision of the Charter, only a month later, [[Grand Duke Travis]] first added the word "hereditary" to the article on nobility. From this time forward, the group of nobles became known as the "Hereditary Nobility."

In July 2018, on the advice of the [[Royal Council]], Grand Duke Travis renamed the body of nobles the "Peerage of Westarctica." This was done to accommodate the many newly created Life Peers.

From 2 February 2021 - 4 July 2023, Grand Duke Travis suspended the sale of peerages, but continued to grant them to deserving supporters.

==Peerage Members==
A Westarctican Peer is any member of the Peerage.

The peers include all nobles, from the [[Grand Duke|Sovereign]] (Grand Duke or Grand Duchess) through [[Baronet|baronet/baronetess]]. The Sovereign may place greater value on the opinions of higher ranking peers before lower, as the former usually have more invested in the country's overall well being and future, but the thoughts of every peer are of considerable value and many of the country's [[Baron|barons]] have exercised greater influence over national policy than some of its [[Duke|dukes]] and [[Prince|princes]].

===Life and Hereditary Peerage===
A peer may be created for life or may be hereditary. A life peer is entitled to and holds their assigned rank from the moment it is received until death, unless the title is revoked for some reason by the Sovereign. A hereditary peer, on the other hand, is allowed to pass the title to their heirs, as they wish. In other respects, a life peer and a hereditary peer are indistinguishable in terms of rights or privileges, including the [[Order of Precedence in Westarctica|Order of Precedence]].

==Authority==
===Font of Honor===
The reigning Sovereign alone has the authority to grant peerages, and may do so for any reason. Peerages are bestowed by the Sovereign at their discretion. They may decide to confer with advisors on the suitability of a person, or on the specific rank to be bestowed. For example, [[Grand Duke Travis]] has asked for input from the [[Prime Minister of Westarctica|Prime Minister]] before making appointments on more than one occasion.

===Changes to the Peerage===
At the discretion of the Sovereign, the rank of a peer may be changed (either promoted or demoted) or an entire rank may be eliminated and its members assigned to a new rank. This happened, for example, with the rank of Westarctican [[count|earl]], a currently-defunct form of peer.

Peerage of Westarctica

2026-06-08T00:37:08Z

Krigsvold:

[[File:Peers Collage 2025.jpg|600px|thumb|Collage showing a small selection of Westarctica's peers as of 2025]]
The '''Peerage of Westarctica''' comprises all noble titles created in [[Westarctica]] from 2004 to the present day. The institution is technically older than Westarctica itself, having come into existence when the first noble titles were created for citizens of the [[Achaean Territory of Antarctica]] in 2001, although most of these early titles were abolished in 2004.

Peers are recognized as having a voice in the nation's public debates, and their opinions, advice, and counsel, when offered, are to be taken into consideration by the [[Grand Duke of Westarctica|Sovereign]] (who may or may not follow this counsel, but is expected to at least hear and weigh it).

In 2023, management and oversight of the Peerage of Westarctica was brought under the [[Royal Household of Grand Duke Travis]].

==History of the Peerage==
The Peerage of Westarctica has been known by several different names since its creation.

During the era when Westarctica was known as the [[Achaean Territory of Antarctica]], the collected nobles were simply known as "the Nobility." In 2002, when the [[Achaean Royal Charter]] was decreed, the name was formalized as "the [[Baronage]]." This name was retained in the [[Grand Ducal Mandate]] of 2004. The Mandate also retired the title of "Earl," and those holding the rank were renamed "Counts."

In September 2012, when the first [[Charter of Westarctica]] was decreed, the nobles were labeled simply "nobility," however, in the second revision of the Charter, only a month later, [[Grand Duke Travis]] first added the word "hereditary" to the article on nobility. From this time forward, the group of nobles became known as the "Hereditary Nobility."

In July 2018, on the advice of the [[Royal Council]], Grand Duke Travis renamed the body of nobles the "Peerage of Westarctica." This was done to accommodate the many newly created Life Peers.

From 2 February 2021 - 4 July 2023, Grand Duke Travis suspended the sale of peerages, but continued to grant them to deserving supporters.

==Peerage Members==
A Westarctican Peer is any member of the Peerage.

The peers include all nobles, from the [[Grand Duke|Sovereign]] (Grand Duke or Grand Duchess) through [[Baronet|baronet/baronetess]]. The Sovereign may place greater value on the opinions of higher ranking peers before lower, as the former usually have more invested in the country's overall well being and future, but the thoughts of every peer are of considerable value and many of the country's [[Baron|barons]] have exercised greater influence over national policy than some of its [[Duke|dukes]] and [[Prince|princes]].

===Life and Hereditary Peerage===
A peer may be created for life or may be hereditary. A life peer is entitled to and holds their assigned rank from the moment it is received until death, unless the title is revoked for some reason by the Sovereign. A hereditary peer, on the other hand, is allowed to pass the title to their heirs, as they wish. In other respects, a life peer and a hereditary peer are indistinguishable in terms of rights or privileges, including the [[Order of Precedence in Westarctica|Order of Precedence]].

==Authority==
===Font of Honor===
The reigning Sovereign alone has the authority to grant peerages, and may do so for any reason. Peerages are bestowed by the Sovereign at their discretion. They may decide to confer with advisors on the suitability of a person, or on the specific rank to be bestowed. For example, [[Grand Duke Travis]] has asked for input from the [[Prime Minister of Westarctica|Prime Minister]] before making appointments on more than one occasion.

===Changes to the Peerage===
At the discretion of the Sovereign, the rank of a peer may be changed (either promoted or demoted) or an entire rank may be eliminated and its members assigned to a new rank. This happened, for example, with the rank of Westarctican [[count|earl]], a currently-defunct form of peer.

===The "Old Guard"===
Starting in 2012, nobles who had received their titles prior to [[Grand Duke Travis]]' 2006 abdication from the throne became informally known as the "[[Old Guard]]" out of respect to their long service to [[Westarctica]].

His Serene Highness '''Prince Thomas''' (Thomas Williams), Duke of Waite, is a member of the [[Peerage of Westarctica]] and serves as [[Minister of Citizenship]] on the [[Royal Council]].

== Princely Elevation ==

On 2 November 2025, by Royal Decree RD-2025-003, the Duke of Waite was elevated to the rank of Prince and thereafter styled His Serene Highness Prince Thomas. The elevation formed part of the Anniversary Honors granted by [[Grand Duke Travis]].

He continues to hold the peerage title Duke of Waite.

Prior to joining [[Westarctica]], Williams was briefly enthroned as Prince of Eden, a [[micronation]] founded on ecological principles. The stated mission of the Principality of Eden was to promote environmental awareness and community-building.

Following his ennoblement in Westarctica, the Principality of Eden was discontinued.

== Career in Westarctica ==

In January 2025, Williams contacted [[Grand Duke Travis]] to inquire about supporting Westarctica’s ecological mission and volunteering his services.

He was subsequently granted the title Count of Recely, named for [[Recely Bluff]]. Shortly thereafter, he was elevated to the rank of [[Duke]] with the title Duke of Waite, named for the [[Waite Islands]] and nearby [[Cape Waite]]. His former subordinate title was then granted to his wife, Delilah Williams, who became Countess of Recely.

In March 2025, following a quarterly meeting of the [[Royal Council]], he volunteered to serve as [[Minister of Citizenship]], a position responsible for reviewing and approving citizenship applications.

In July 2025, after the reactivation of the [[Civilian Corps]], he was appointed Commissioner of the Civilian Corps.

His Grace, the '''Duke of Waite''', Thomas Williams, is a member of the [[Peerage of Westarctica]], and the [[Minister of Citizenship]] on the [[Royal Council]].

==Prince of Eden==
Prior to joining [[Westarctica]], His Grace was briefly enthroned as the Prince of Eden, a [[micronation]] based on ecological principles. As stated online "our main goal is to help spread awareness to remote areas, and grow our kingdom into a great community."

After receiving a title in Westarctica, the Principality of Eden was discontinued.

==Career in Westarctica==
In January 2025, Williams contacted [[Grand Duke Travis]] to inquire about donating to [[Westarctica]] and volunteering to help the ecological mission of the nation. At this time, he stated: "I've been following Westartica for years. You are my personal hero for what you do."

He subsequently was granted the peerage title Count of Recely, so-named for [[Recely Bluff]]. Shortly after, he was elevated to the rank of [[duke]] with the title Duke of Waite, so-named for the [[Waite Islands]] and nearby [[Cape Waite]]. His [[subordinate title]] was then granted to his wife, Delilah Williams, who became the Countess of Recely.

After the quarterly [[Royal Council]] meeting in March 2025, His Grace volunteered to serve in the vacant post of [[Minister of Citizenship]], a vital government position which involved processing and approving new citizenship applications.

In July 2025, after the decision was finalized to resurrect the dormant [[Civilian Corps]], the Duke of Waite seemed like a natural fit to assume leadership as Commissioner of the Civilian Corps.

His Lordship, the '''Count of Krigsvold''', birth name '''James Patrick Howard II''', is a peer in the [[Peerage of Westarctica]]. Since 9 June 2025, he has served in the [[Royal Household of Grand Duke Travis]] as the [[Ellsworth King of Arms]] and is responsible for producing grants of arms to the peers and knights of [[Westarctica]]. The count is the patron of the [[Count of Krigsvold Fellowship]] and head of the House of Basu-Howard.

==Biography==
His Lordship was born on 16 December 1979 in Dayton, Ohio. After two years in a dual enrollment program with Miami University, he transferred to the University of Maryland, College Park, where he completed a Bachelor of Science in mathematics in 2002. He later pursued a Master of Public Administration at the University of Baltimore, completing it in 2008. In 2014, Howard earned a Ph.D. in public policy from the University of Maryland, Baltimore County.

In some ways, His Lordship's life parallels that of German polymath Athanasius Kircher, not only in the breadth of their educations, but also in their career paths as teachers, mathematicians, and philosophers. He has stated: "As an educator, I see myself as a lifelong learner, always seeking out new knowledge and innovative teaching strategies to improve my practice."

===Career as data scientist===
Howard is a data scientist at the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory (APL). His work includes developing artificial intelligence models for infectious disease forecasting, evaluating the use of augmented reality in mission planning, and analyzing blockchain applications in national security and government services. He has co-authored publications on the suitability of blockchain technologies for program management and security contexts. Additionally, he has discussed the application of analytics in public health contexts, such as predicting restaurant health inspection outcomes, in interviews and podcasts.

He is the author and maintainer of the phonics package for the R programming language. Howard also developed Freegrep, a BSD-licensed implementation of the Unix grep utility, which he created over a weekend in July 1999 at the age of 19. Freegrep has been included in several operating systems, including FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, Minix, Haiku, macOS, and iOS.

Since 2010, Howard has served as adjunct faculty at the University of Maryland Global Campus, where he teaches mathematics and statistics courses, including college algebra, finite mathematics, calculus, quantitative reasoning, and business statistics. He has also taught public administration and policy analysis at institutions such as the City University of New York's Baruch College, Central Michigan University, and the University of New Mexico. He also taught public finance and financial management at the University of Baltimore.

From 2003 to 2012, Howard worked at the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System as a scientific computing consultant, where he contributed to research and policy-related computing initiatives. He later served as an external consultant to several U.S. federal agencies, including the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, the Executive Office of the President, and the Department of Homeland Security.

===Civic and volunteer service===
[[File:Howard Mars.png|400px|thumb|The Count of Krigsvold speaking to the Mars Society in 2015]]
From 2005 to 2011, His Lordship served on the Columbia Association’s Budget and Financial Advisory committees, serving as chair of both committees during multiple terms.

He was appointed to the Board of Appeals in Howard County, Maryland, in 2011, serving until 2021. In 2011, Howard voted in favor of a decision allowing Frisky's Wildlife and Primate Sanctuary to continue operating in western Howard County, despite neighborhood complaints and zoning challenges. The case attracted public attention due to the presence of capuchin monkeys and other exotic animals and raised questions about the limits of conditional use in rural residential zones. In 2013, the board faced scrutiny after a hearing was rescheduled with minimal public notice, prompting accusations of violating Maryland’s Open Meetings Act. Howard publicly defended the Board’s procedural actions but later supported administrative reforms to improve transparency. In 2015, he joined the board majority in granting AT&T approval for the construction of a 145-foot cell tower in Fulton, overruling significant neighborhood opposition.

Howard has served in the Maryland Defense Force (MDDF) since 2006 and was promoted to the rank of captain in 2013.

===Political career===
In 2018, Howard ran for the Maryland House of Delegates in District 12 as a Democratic candidate in the primary, a multi-member district covering parts of Howard and Baltimore counties. He was one of eight candidates competing for three seats and received 1,283 votes, approximately 3.9% of the total, but did not advance to the general election. In 2020, he appeared on the Democratic primary ballot as a pledged delegate candidate for Senator Elizabeth Warren in Maryland’s 7th Congressional District for the Democratic National Convention. Although Warren had suspended her presidential campaign by the time of the primary, Howard remained on the ballot and received 3,623 votes.

==Career in Westarctica==
On 28 November 2024, Howard was granted the [[peerage of Westarctica|peerage title]] Baron of Matikonis, so-named for [[Matikonis Peak]]. A week later, he was granted a second title, that of Count of Krigsvold, so-named for the [[Krigsvold Nunataks]]. At this time, Baron of Matikonis became his [[subordinate title]]. His daughter also received the peerage title Baronetess of Wolfhelm.

In his capacity as Head of the House of Basu-Howard, His Lordship awarded [[Grand Duke Travis]] a knighthood in the Order of the Peacock in 2025.

He gained the [[subordinate title]] [[Mount Rubin de la Borbolla|Count Rubin de la Borbolla]] in July 2025, so-named for [[Mount Rubin de la Borbolla]]. His Lordship was also honored as a Companion in the [[Noble Order of Westarctica]]. At this time, his two children were granted the [[courtesy title]]s Baronet of Gallón and Baronetess of Savomini.

===Count of Krigsvold Fellowship Patron===
In December 2024, His Lordship expressed interest in becoming the patron of the Westarctica Conservation Scholarship. After discussions with Grand Duke Travis, he subsequently pledged $1,000 to increase the annual award amount and slightly refine the grant requirements. The scholarship was re-named the [[Count of Krigsvold Fellowship]] in honor of His Lordship's funding pledge. The grant was first awarded in May 2025.

===Ellsworth King of Arms===
On 9 June 2025, the count was appointed to the office of [[Ellsworth King of Arms]] and given the task of heading the [[Westarctican College of Arms]], the institution which is responsible for creating arms for Westarctica's peers and knights.

His Lordship, the '''Count of Krigsvold''', birth name '''James Patrick Howard II''', is a peer in the [[Peerage of Westarctica]]. Since 9 June 2025, he has served in the [[Royal Household of Grand Duke Travis]] as the [[Ellsworth King of Arms]] and is responsible for producing grants of arms to the peers and knights of [[Westarctica]]. The count is the patron of the [[Count of Krigsvold Fellowship]] and head of the House of Basu-Howard.

==Biography==
His Lordship was born on 16 December 1979 in Dayton, Ohio. After two years in a dual enrollment program with Miami University, he transferred to the University of Maryland, College Park, where he completed a Bachelor of Science in mathematics in 2002. He later pursued a Master of Public Administration at the University of Baltimore, completing it in 2008. In 2014, Howard earned a Ph.D. in public policy from the University of Maryland, Baltimore County.

In some ways, His Lordship's life parallels that of German polymath Athanasius Kircher, not only in the breadth of their educations, but also in their career paths as teachers, mathematicians, and philosophers. He has stated: "As an educator, I see myself as a lifelong learner, always seeking out new knowledge and innovative teaching strategies to improve my practice."

===Career as data scientist===
Howard is a data scientist at the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory (APL). His work includes developing artificial intelligence models for infectious disease forecasting, evaluating the use of augmented reality in mission planning, and analyzing blockchain applications in national security and government services. He has co-authored publications on the suitability of blockchain technologies for program management and security contexts. Additionally, he has discussed the application of analytics in public health contexts, such as predicting restaurant health inspection outcomes, in interviews and podcasts.

He is the author and maintainer of the phonics package for the R programming language. Howard also developed Freegrep, a BSD-licensed implementation of the Unix grep utility, which he created over a weekend in July 1999 at the age of 19. Freegrep has been included in several operating systems, including FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, Minix, Haiku, macOS, and iOS.

Since 2010, Howard has served as adjunct faculty at the University of Maryland Global Campus, where he teaches mathematics and statistics courses, including college algebra, finite mathematics, calculus, quantitative reasoning, and business statistics. He has also taught public administration and policy analysis at institutions such as the City University of New York's Baruch College, Central Michigan University, and the University of New Mexico. He also taught public finance and financial management at the University of Baltimore.

From 2003 to 2012, Howard worked at the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System as a scientific computing consultant, where he contributed to research and policy-related computing initiatives. He later served as an external consultant to several U.S. federal agencies, including the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, the Executive Office of the President, and the Department of Homeland Security.

===Civic and volunteer service===
[[File:Howard Mars.png|400px|thumb|The Count of Krigsvold speaking to the Mars Society in 2015]]
From 2005 to 2011, His Lordship served on the Columbia Association’s Budget and Financial Advisory committees, serving as chair of both committees during multiple terms.

He was appointed to the Board of Appeals in Howard County, Maryland, in 2011, serving until 2021. In 2011, Howard voted in favor of a decision allowing Frisky's Wildlife and Primate Sanctuary to continue operating in western Howard County, despite neighborhood complaints and zoning challenges. The case attracted public attention due to the presence of capuchin monkeys and other exotic animals and raised questions about the limits of conditional use in rural residential zones. In 2013, the board faced scrutiny after a hearing was rescheduled with minimal public notice, prompting accusations of violating Maryland’s Open Meetings Act. Howard publicly defended the Board’s procedural actions but later supported administrative reforms to improve transparency. In 2015, he joined the board majority in granting AT&T approval for the construction of a 145-foot cell tower in Fulton, overruling significant neighborhood opposition.

Howard has served in the Maryland Defense Force (MDDF) since 2006 and was promoted to the rank of captain in 2013.

===Political career===
In 2018, Howard ran for the Maryland House of Delegates in District 12 as a Democratic candidate in the primary, a multi-member district covering parts of Howard and Baltimore counties. He was one of eight candidates competing for three seats and received 1,283 votes, approximately 3.9% of the total, but did not advance to the general election. In 2020, he appeared on the Democratic primary ballot as a pledged delegate candidate for Senator Elizabeth Warren in Maryland’s 7th Congressional District for the Democratic National Convention. Although Warren had suspended her presidential campaign by the time of the primary, Howard remained on the ballot and received 3,623 votes.

==Career in Westarctica==
On 28 November 2024, Howard was granted the [[peerage of Westarctica|peerage title]] Baron of Matikonis, so-named for [[Matikonis Peak]]. A week later, he was granted a second title, that of Count of Krigsvold, so-named for the [[Krigsvold Nunataks]]. At this time, Baron of Matikonis became his [[subordinate title]]. His daughter also received the peerage title Baronetess of Wolfhelm.

In his capacity as Head of the House of Basu-Howard, His Lordship awarded [[Grand Duke Travis]] a knighthood in the Order of the Peacock in 2025.

He gained the [[subordinate title]] [[Mount Rubin de la Borbolla|Count Rubin de la Borbolla]] in July 2025, so-named for [[Mount Rubin de la Borbolla]]. His Lordship was also honored as a Companion in the [[Noble Order of Westarctica]]. At this time, his two children were granted the [[courtesy title]]s Baronet of Gallón and Baronetess of Savomini.

===Count of Krigsvold Fellowship Patron===
In December 2024, His Lordship expressed interest in becoming the patron of the Westarctica Conservation Scholarship. After discussions with Grand Duke Travis, he subsequently pledged $1,000 to increase the annual award amount and slightly refine the grant requirements. The scholarship was re-named the [[Count of Krigsvold Fellowship]] in honor of His Lordship's funding pledge. The grant was first awarded in May 2025.

===Ellsworth King of Arms===
On 9 June 2025, the count was appointed to the office of [[Ellsworth King of Arms]] and given the task of heading the [[Westarctican College of Arms]], the institution which is responsible for creating arms for Westarctica's peers and knights.

His Lordship, the '''Count of Krigsvold''', birth name '''James Patrick Howard II''', is a peer in the [[Peerage of Westarctica]]. Since 9 June 2025, he has served in the [[Royal Household of Grand Duke Travis]] as the [[Ellsworth King of Arms]] and is responsible for producing grants of arms to the peers and knights of [[Westarctica]]. The count is the patron of the [[Count of Krigsvold Fellowship]] and head of the House of Basu-Howard.

==Biography==
His Lordship was born on 16 December 1979 in Dayton, Ohio. After two years in a dual enrollment program with Miami University, he transferred to the University of Maryland, College Park, where he completed a Bachelor of Science in mathematics in 2002. He later pursued a Master of Public Administration at the University of Baltimore, completing it in 2008. In 2014, Howard earned a Ph.D. in public policy from the University of Maryland, Baltimore County.

In some ways, His Lordship's life parallels that of German polymath Athanasius Kircher, not only in the breadth of their educations, but also in their career paths as teachers, mathematicians, and philosophers. He has stated: "As an educator, I see myself as a lifelong learner, always seeking out new knowledge and innovative teaching strategies to improve my practice."

===Career as data scientist===
Howard is a data scientist at the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory (APL). His work includes developing artificial intelligence models for infectious disease forecasting, evaluating the use of augmented reality in mission planning, and analyzing blockchain applications in national security and government services. He has co-authored publications on the suitability of blockchain technologies for program management and security contexts. Additionally, he has discussed the application of analytics in public health contexts, such as predicting restaurant health inspection outcomes, in interviews and podcasts.

He is the author and maintainer of the phonics package for the R programming language. Howard also developed Freegrep, a BSD-licensed implementation of the Unix grep utility, which he created over a weekend in July 1999 at the age of 19. Freegrep has been included in several operating systems, including FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, Minix, Haiku, macOS, and iOS.

Since 2010, Howard has served as adjunct faculty at the University of Maryland Global Campus, where he teaches mathematics and statistics courses, including college algebra, finite mathematics, calculus, quantitative reasoning, and business statistics. He has also taught public administration and policy analysis at institutions such as the City University of New York's Baruch College, Central Michigan University, and the University of New Mexico. He also taught public finance and financial management at the University of Baltimore.

From 2003 to 2012, Howard worked at the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System as a scientific computing consultant, where he contributed to research and policy-related computing initiatives. He later served as an external consultant to several U.S. federal agencies, including the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, the Executive Office of the President, and the Department of Homeland Security.

===Civic and volunteer service===
[[File:Howard Mars.png|400px|thumb|The Count of Krigsvold speaking to the Mars Society in 2015]]
From 2005 to 2011, His Lordship served on the Columbia Association’s Budget and Financial Advisory committees, serving as chair of both committees during multiple terms.

He was appointed to the Board of Appeals in Howard County, Maryland, in 2011, serving until 2021. In 2011, Howard voted in favor of a decision allowing Frisky's Wildlife and Primate Sanctuary to continue operating in western Howard County, despite neighborhood complaints and zoning challenges. The case attracted public attention due to the presence of capuchin monkeys and other exotic animals and raised questions about the limits of conditional use in rural residential zones. In 2013, the board faced scrutiny after a hearing was rescheduled with minimal public notice, prompting accusations of violating Maryland’s Open Meetings Act. Howard publicly defended the Board’s procedural actions but later supported administrative reforms to improve transparency. In 2015, he joined the board majority in granting AT&T approval for the construction of a 145-foot cell tower in Fulton, overruling significant neighborhood opposition.

Howard has served in the Maryland Defense Force (MDDF) since 2006 and was promoted to the rank of captain in 2013.

===Political career===
In 2018, Howard ran for the Maryland House of Delegates in District 12 as a Democratic candidate in the primary, a multi-member district covering parts of Howard and Baltimore counties. He was one of eight candidates competing for three seats and received 1,283 votes, approximately 3.9% of the total, but did not advance to the general election. In 2020, he appeared on the Democratic primary ballot as a pledged delegate candidate for Senator Elizabeth Warren in Maryland’s 7th Congressional District for the Democratic National Convention. Although Warren had suspended her presidential campaign by the time of the primary, Howard remained on the ballot and received 3,623 votes.

==Career in Westarctica==
On 28 November 2024, Howard was granted the [[peerage of Westarctica|peerage title]] Baron of Matikonis, so-named for [[Matikonis Peak]]. A week later, he was granted a second title, that of Count of Krigsvold, so-named for the [[Krigsvold Nunataks]]. At this time, Baron of Matikonis became his [[subordinate title]]. His daughter also received the peerage title Baronetess of Wolfhelm.

In his capacity as Head of the House of Basu-Howard, His Lordship awarded [[Grand Duke Travis]] a knighthood in the Order of the Peacock in 2025.

He gained the [[subordinate title]] [[Mount Rubin de la Borbolla|Count Rubin de la Borbolla]] in July 2025, so-named for [[Mount Rubin de la Borbolla]]. His Lordship was also honored as a Companion in the [[Noble Order of Westarctica]]. At this time, his two children were granted the [[courtesy title]]s Baronet of Gallón and Baronetess of Savomini.

===Count of Krigsvold Fellowship Patron===
In December 2024, His Lordship expressed interest in becoming the patron of the Westarctica Conservation Scholarship. After discussions with Grand Duke Travis, he subsequently pledged $1,000 to increase the annual award amount and slightly refine the grant requirements. The scholarship was re-named the [[Count of Krigsvold Fellowship]] in honor of His Lordship's funding pledge. The grant was first awarded in May 2025.

===Ellsworth King of Arms===
On 9 June 2025, the count was appointed to the office of [[Ellsworth King of Arms]] and given the task of heading the [[Westarctican College of Arms]], the institution which is responsible for creating arms for Westarctica's peers and knights.
