			==Style==
			Although the typical style of a count or countess is "His Lordship" or "Her Ladyship," in 2022, the [[Countess of Benton]] was inducted as a member of the [[Royal Family of Westarctica]] with the style "Her Illustrious Highness." This was done to accord her special status as the mother of [[Grand Duke Travis]]. It mimics the style of German noble families at the grade of count and also by cadet members of some princely German families from the early 1800s until the 1900s.

	Like a Marquis or a Baron, Counts are to be addressed as "Your Lordship/Ladyship" and "His/Their Lordship" or "Her/Their Ladyship" (in the third person) in written correspondence and formal address.		Like a Marquis or a Baron, Counts are to be addressed as "Your Lordship/Ladyship" and "His/Their Lordship" or "Her/Their Ladyship" (in the third person) in written correspondence and formal address.

			==Usage in Westarctica==
			From 2001 - 2004, when [[Westarctica]] was known as the [[Achaean Territory of Antarctica]], the title of Count was not used. Instead the British equivalent of Earl was bestowed upon only two individuals. However, [[Countess Radlinski]], the first noble to bear the title in any form, was made a countess on 28 January 2002. In the British system, there is no female equivalent for Earl, and the Countess was a fan of Dracula, so it seemed appropriate to grant her that title.

			In 2004, [[Grand Duke Travis]] revised the titles of the [[Baronage]] and converted the two existing Earls to Counts. He also demoted the Duke of Walgreen to the become the [[Count of Kohler]].
