==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. | |||
