===== Reinvigoration of the Principality =====
 
==Duchies of Pavia==
The Duchies of Pavia represent the land of the highest ranking nobles in Pavia bar the Crown Prince. Duchies are created from a majority vote of the Privy Council, however the Crown Prince controls expansion of the Duchies as the sole arbitrator of the Crownland territories. Dukes retain final-say over their land, with each Duchy acting as a de-facto self governing region of Pavia, with the ability for it's own rules, governance and way of life. Splits in the culture and evolution of the typical Pavian architecture is encouraged within Ducal land as a manner of promoting a diverse set of regions across the Principality. Duke hold the ability to grant portions of their held land to lower nobility, enshrining citizens as 'landed nobility'. These nobles have powers over their own territory much like a Duke possesses however they lack the same protections, as their title may be stripped, and their lands reabsorbed at any time by the reigning Duke.
 
All Duchies hold their own flag, title, and coat of arms which are designed by the Bureau of Semiography, these titles, COAs and flags last for as long as the current Duke stays in power, with the emblems shifting as the incumbent house changes. Every Duke of a Pavian Duchy is the original ruler since it's creation via the Magna Pavia or the Privy Council, meaning there are currently no secondary inheritors as of October 2022.
 
Duchies may be dissolved through a majority plus one vote of the Privy Council, with these votes the ruling Duke is stripped of their title, and their lands are absorbed back into the Crownland territories. It is generally accepted that Dukes that are removed from power keep any landed or unlanded titles they hold in other Duchies in Pavia.
