Therefore currently, the Emperor is "His Imperial Majesty, Michael I, Emperor of the Grehkian Empire" and shall be spoken to as "Your Imperial Majesty", where as Prince Askarn Iltaran would be "His Imperial Highness, Askarn I, Prince of the Grehkian Empire, Margrave of Ossmat" and Prince-Regent Nidor Lionheart would be (until the need for the Prince-Regent again) would be "Your Imperial Highness, Nidor I, Prince of the Grehkian Empire (as not currently active as Prince-Regent), Duke of Ossmat"
But if you take Marcus Turner, a retired Duke but a regional Lord, he would be "Marcus, Duke of Old Grehk, Margrave of Vozzessdor" and Count Kyler would be "Count Kyler of Mekoter" but if retired would be "Lord Kyler of Old Grehk"
