Concerning the bill overall, I think it is unique.

I like the idea, but one major problem immediately jumps to mind. There would be nothing to prevent a republic from adopting the "The state grants hereditary and life titles of nobility" variable, or a supposed-monarchy from making "The state does not grant or recognize titles of nobility" the law of the land.

That isn't exactly a problem with the law, though, is it? I mean, it may not happen in real life but what's to stop a republic government from inventing their own "title of nobility" style system? Or a monarchy from being banned by a parliament from granting titles?

It'd be unique when compared to RL, but that isn't always a problem.

I think it might be worth to add an option saying that only the hereditary Head of State is allowed to grant titles of nobility.

This would make my life in Solentia much easier. Can I bump it?
