Customs, Courtesies and Styles of Adress

If in doubt of how you should address your superiors or comrades (ICly), then look no further! Proper styles of address, greetings, and acknowledgements are listed below.

Greetings to citizens by rankEdit
When addressing a citizen of the Imperium it is customary to use the formal introduction in the beginning and then fall back on informal references.

Styles of AddressEdit
Styles of Address are used to announce the presence of individual members at a gathering or for reference in formal writing. Examples of a Style of Address would be:

"His Royal Majesty, King Zaheer Sadek Son of Karrim, of Midicoil, Fourth Descendant of Sadek, King of the Kingdom of Codia, of the Kingdom of Codia."

This style has various elements that are the framework for all styles:

Honorific + Name (Rank proceeds the name if they are nobles) + Parent/Legacy + Where they are in the line of decedents + highest title + subsequent titles (The word "and" proceeds the final title) + of the Kingdom of Codia

Further examples:
 * 1) Her Royal Majesty, Queen Jaevri Minoru Sadek, Daughter of Aredous,of Minoru First descendant  Queen of The Kingdom of Zaddja and Codia, of the Kingdom of Codia.
 * 2) Sir, Tidon Hansen, Son of Hans, of Hansen, Fourth Descendant, Hirdman of Zaheer and Commander of the First Army, of the Kingdom of Codia.

Etiquette and Protocol specific to the Monarch
For example, an Codian military commander wishes an audience with the Monarch. That officer should request permission from his superior who will then request permission of the noble responsible for him. The noble may approach the hall of the Monarch via his Steward to schedule the audience.
 * 1) The Monarch's Throne is never to be touched without His Majesty's permission.
 * 2) The Monarch's quarters are never to be entered except by summons of the Monarch. Only members of the Royal Family, the Hirdmen, Councilors and the Knights of his detail or his padawans are exceptions to the rule and even then such intrusions on the Monarch's majesty should be rare.
 * 3) The Monarch is never to be spoken to unless He addresses you first or acknowledged you in a meeting. The exception to this rule are members of the Royal Family, the Hirdmen, Councilors and the Knights of his detail or his padawans.
 * 4) To speak with the Monarch you must schedule an audience with his office via his Steward. Only citizens with the rank Courtier or above my contact the Monarch for purposes of an audience or any business. Any citizen not of those ranks should arrange audiences with the chain of command.
 * 1) Never immediately turn your back on the Monarch. If you are dismissed you are to bow, step back a few steps and then turn your back.
 * 2) Never approach the Monarch too quickly. This can lead to a Knight cutting you in half.
