Kolios' nobility exists in a structured hierarchy. This exists in four tiers, the highest of which is the Principality. This level exists with all districts reporting directly to it. Each individual district can be broken down further, depending on the level. For example, Duchies can be subdivided into three or four Margravates. Margravates can then be divided into three or four Baronies. Sulli and Sheridan are unique in that there are no intermediaries between them and the Princess of Kolios. This mediatisation is not required, and is added at the discretion of the Princess.

Shortly after abdicating from the throne of the Empire of Agber, Princess Arlene announced that the Duchy of Fryar would be opened up for mediatisation, along with possibly "filling out" the room for new nobles under the structure of the Duchy of Cramer. In total, this will allow for up to five new Margravates and twenty-two new Baronies.

This mediatisation will be abolished as part of Margrave Jordan's planned changes when he takes the throne. It will be replaced by a system that is intended to blend aspects of traditional nobility with a meritocracy via relegation as a component of inheriting noble titles.

The Sanctified Order of the Crucifix originated as a Koliosian award. The order was converted to one for the Empire of Agber in 1998. This order is limited to 24 persons and has a single rank (Knight/Dame). Members of this order were encouraged to wear a crucifix in their day to day lives, while a red sash and breast star are worn for ceremonies and formal affairs. The order was returned to Koliosian control in 2020.

Margrave Jordan has stated his intent to reassign control of the order to his noble house when he takes the Rose Throne, as part of his eforts to secularize the Koliosian Government.
 
A third order was announced in early 2021: The Order of the Rose Throne, it is unclear if the announcement constituted an official establishment or not. As of 16 August 2021, no awards of the order have been bestowed, and no further development has been announced by Princess Arlene.
