Nobility of Nouvelle Alexandrie

The nobility of Alduria-Wechua is composed of persons who possess the legal status of hereditary nobility according to the laws and traditions of the Federation of Alduria and the Wechua Nation and its monarchy. The nobility also includes those who hold personal nobility as bestowed by belonging to one of highest orders of knighthood of the Federation, namely the Order of the Golden Sun, the Order of the Realm, and the Order of Manco Capac. A system of titles and honors of Alduria-Wechua that constitute it make up its nobility. Some nobles possess various titles that may be inherited, but the creation and recognition of titles is legally a prerogative of the King of Alduria-Wechua.

Noble titleholders are subjected to taxation. King Manco Capac I has also conferred titles to recognize those whose public service, artistic endeavors, personal achievement, philanthropy, and others who have been deemed to have benefitted the Federation and its people.
