Castes and Classes in the Gate Kingdom

==Top Nobility & Titles==
The nobility of the Gate Kingdom consist of several families of very big size. These families are known as Samed and consists of about 90% of the elite.  They hold the following titles in order of power and rank:
Wérgom (King and Warlord, elected by the High council, hereditary by custom) 
Habul (Only 3 Habuls currently exist, one for the north, one for the east and one for the west. It is a very prestigious title held only by the very elite of Gate Kingdom society.) There is currently one Habul, Helgher Tharki of Rodmuthia.
Karls (Province governors, taxes the land and are thus wealthy. Karl is a title for life but not legally hereditary. However in fact it actually is as the Karl will lobby for his son to take his place and usually is successful. For the Wérgomea to deny heredity succession would be seen as an insult, and depending on the situation, could be seen as radical.)
Marl (Foreign Karl, governs as province as a king that swears fealty to the gates and enjoys higher autonomy then Karls but gets no influence over foreign policy and needs to provide troops) 
Semus (The head of the City Council. There are one council per city)
==Lower Nobility & Knights==
