Crabryan Alman nobility (Pacifica)
Crabryan Alman nobility refers to the nobilities of Alman-speaking regions of Crabry, namely in the territories of today's Kliegme and Tepertopia. The nobilities of the region developed somewhat independently from one another, which created different noble traditions.
Kliegmean Alman nobility
The Kliegmean Alman nobility was a privileged social class that existed in Kliegme, specifically in what is today the Alman Autonomous Oblast. These families came into prominence following the arrival of Alman-speaking settlers from what is today Weisserstein to Karnetvorian Crabry in the Xth century.
Kliegmean Alman nobility is sometimes divided into two categories: the Old Estates (alte Landgute) and New Estates (neue Landgute). The Old Estates are nobilities which originated from today's Weisserstein, while the New Estates are nobilities who were elevated to the position by the Karnetvorian authority or by their vast estates.
Today, the Alman nobility of Kliegme no longer retain any specific privileges. However, due to the nature of the Alman Autonomous Oblast, the old Estates retained their influence in the Oblast's political, economical, and social structure.
