What are medieval estates?
The word estate has different meanings. One way the word is used is to refer to the real landed possessions of a person. The typical estate of a lord was one or more manors. Another way the word is used refers to a group of people forming an important social order. We often see reference to three estates, the clergy, the nobility, and people of lesser rank. The people of lesser rank are often referred to as commoners, but this is not technically correct, as most members of the nobility were also commoners.

What was the rank of a lord?
It was the highest. The lord was the one who made all the rules, and everyone had to follow them. ----- A lord did not have a specific rank. The younger sons of an Earl, for example, were called lords, but they were commoners and did not necessarily have any rank of nobility at all. A man titled Lord Chamberlain did not necessarily have a noble rank either, though he had a high position. The lord of a manor was likewise not a person who necessarily had a specific rank, and was most likely a commoner. A person could be a knight without being a lord, but a person could also be a lord of a manor without having a rank as high as knighthood.
Who has titles of nobility?
No one, the founding fathers outlawed the ability to give anyone title of nobility, because they wanted the people to have the power, not just one person. (president isn't a title of nobility?) Improved from: welll, im not sure. I was actually looking around for this answer, but i believe nobody has titles of nobility? this may be really stupid but can someone please improve this answer. THANKS :) J.R.

What class was eligible to become a knight in The Middle Age?
Members of the royalty and nobility often became knights, but they were not the only ones. In fact, most knights were commoners. Remember, however that most members of the nobility were commoners. Anyone who was not royal, a peer, or the heir apparent of a peer was a commoner, so the younger son of a duke was a commoner. Since anyone who had a manorial estate, or in the family of such a person, was considered a member of the nobility, there were many commoners who were of the nobility. Knighthood itself was a rank of nobility. Most knights were the younger sons of nobility, trained over a long period by a knight. But the business of choosing who was to be trained was up to the knight, and no one was technically excluded on the basis of class. There were a number of boys who were accepted to be pages and squires who were sons of merchants or scholars. There was no law I am aware of, aside from custom, that prevented a knight from accepting the son of a serf as a page. In fact, the word knight derives from a Germanic word meaning boy or servant. Additionally, the creation of a knight was discretionary on the part of a monarch. Knighthood could be conferred on a person who was not trained to be a knight at all. There are many instances recorded of such practice, and there were orders of knighthood made up of people who were chosen entirely on the basis of performance in battle or even on the basis of acts of mercy not connected with military situations. One order of knighthood in Catalonia, called the Order of the Hatchet, was made up entirely of women who had fought in a battle, regardless of rank. The women had all the privileges of knights.
