I can think of at least three types of honour that the Queen of England has total or functionally total control over (in one case I am thinking of a now dormant convention, but one that would not depend upon any formal Government approval to resurrect). Given peers have no legislative power in Talossa - or indeed any power - this is much more like the OM in the UK. No need for Governmental mucking about.

I think it's fair to say there were some strange and unpleasant things in the Kingdom during that 07-11 period - I say that with some unfortunate personal experience! But yes, if one looks at "relative vibrancy", that period - up to and including the Early Reunision Days - do now seem like halcyon days of energy and engagement.

(I remember I was given a guest account at the old Republic forum. I don't really remember why I was welcomed!)

This seems like a good one to seek advice on from Government legal officers.
