Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren,
I recently received your answer to my request to become part of ze Rheinland Adel. It fills my heart wiz pride, honor and a good dose of personal satisfaction to receive such an important responsibility from ze Rheinland Government. At ze same time, I have a healzy respect for ze tasks zat I'll have. I already know zat it won't be an easy walk in ze park. After all, ze Lüneburg system (and wiz it, ze penal colony Hammersee) has been, since ze Second Treaty of Nevers, signed on 31. Mai 827, recognized as Rheinland house system. One of ze first problems, zat will occur, will be, to win ze common mob for my assignments. Ze cause of zis is simple:
No proper Adelstitel granted:
Ze Nobility Paragraph of ze Kaiserreich Rheinland clearly states:
(06-05-2020, 07:38 AM)Kaiserreich Rheinland Wrote: Being a noble of ze Rheinland Empire means recieving a defined part of our land, a title and ze allowance to add ze "von" before your lastname.
How should I expect people following my lead, if I cannot tell zem how to address me? How should I even know, what tasks are expected from me?
Zat's ze problem for not sticking to constitutionally defined terms. While "Stellvertreterin Direktorin" sounds fancy and important, it only describes ze actual term. Direktorin is ze head of a public institution or certain authorities, we already have a word for zis: Governor
And as I've to act as deputy for ze current one, who is appointed by ze current senat (see Holstein Accords §2.1.1), I have to point out, zat ze most system governors in Rheinland possess ze title of an Erzherzog.
Are my tasks limited to Hammersee or do zey include ze complete Lüneburg system?
I saw, zat some tradelanes are in a horrible condition and they might be vital to fulfill my tasks...
as you are still new to your title, you will be forgiven for making demands of this office. As you well know with your unfettered access to the records of our citizens, many of the Niederer Adel do not possess any title but the hallowed "von", and you should have been satisfied with the same.
However, in the interest of improving your prospects, I have personally petitioned the Kaiser to grant you a title. Henceforth, you will be known as Freifrau Renate von Bommel, with your additional occupational titles to be entered before ze "von". I earnestly hope zat this intervention will be answered in kind, by the effective discharging of your new duties concerning Hammersee.
At this time, there is no possible question of governorship. You are still new to your position and indeed the ranks of the Adel. Continue to impress me, your superiors, and of course, the Kaiser - and you will find that this office is not ungrateful.
im Dienste seiner Exzellenz,
Kurfürst Volker von Koch,
Hoher Kanzler

Sehr geehrte Lordschaft,
please accept my apology as I'm not used to ze conventions when dealing wiz Rheinlands nobilities.
She shows a miserable attempt to make a curtsey.
I sincerely zank your great generosity for granting me ze Adelstitel of a "Freifrau".
May I request you offer some training or provide a guide, when it comes to dealing wiz Rheinland nobles, as zis might become handy to prevent such faux pas in future?
I also zank you about reminding me about ze details of ze nobility paragraph:
(06-05-2020, 07:38 AM)Kaiserreich Rheinland Wrote: Impersonation of Rheinland nobility such as using ze 'von' nobiliary particle wizout ze recognition of ze Kaiser is a crime and will lead to a harsh punishment for ze individual violator.
Wiz ze given, unfettered access to ze records of our citizens, I can now ensure no person ever will violate our laws regarding zat matter again.
For ze sake of paperwork, it would be very helpful, if you find ze time to add my husband, son and me to ze list of ze recognized persons and families of ze Kaiserreich Rheinland.
