How does the order of Royalty go?

Question

I know it goes King, Queen, Prince, Princess, Duke, Duchess, Count, Countess. Is there any more then that?

Answer 1

You need to clear up some of your information. There are royals and then there is the peerage. A royal can be both.

King/Queen Regnant

Queen Consort/Prince Consort (spouses of the monarch)

Prince/Princess

All of the above can bear royal versions of the peerage titles:

Royal Duke/Duchess

Royal Marquess/Marchioness

Royal Earl/Countess

Royal Baron/Baroness

A good example of this is Charles,Prince of Wales who is also Duke of Cornwall, Duke of Rothesay, Earl of Carrick and Baron Renfrew, Lord of the Isles, and Prince and Great Steward of Scotland.

Those are the royal titles.

And following these titles are the non-royal aristocrats the non-royal dukes,marquesses,et cetera.

That is as far as royalty goes.  Although minor members of the royal family may be addressed Earl, Viscount, Lord, or Lady (in that order of precedence).
