Titles and Ranks

Traditional rank amongst Internetian citizens is rooted in the formation of Chivalric ranks. Although they vary over time and among geographic regions (for example, one region's Speaker might be equal to another's Chairman of the House), the following is a reasonably comprehensive list that provides information on both general ranks and specific differences.
