The Barony

What is a Barony?

A barony is an Amtgard chapter larger than a Shire and smaller than a Duchy. Generally average attendance for a Barony would be around fifteen to twenty people on a weekly basis. A barony must hold an average attendance of 15-20 people during a six month period in order to retain it's status.

What can a Barony do?

A Barony is typically allowed to give ladder awards up to the 4th level. A barony is not allowed to bestow titles of nobility.

Leadership

The elected leader of a Barony is a Baron. Other offices that may or may not be filled due to the needs of the park are Baronial Regent Baronial Prime Minister or Chancellor and Baronial Champion. Most of these offices are voted on, with the exception of the Baronial Champion, who is chosen by right of arms.

Elections

In most places candidates declare and then a Quals is held. Qualifying candidates are then voted on by either the dues paid populous or all in attendance, depending on the rules of the park.
