Royal Titles and Nobility Ranks in a Monarchy
A monarchy is a government ruled by a king or queen, or their equivalents in other cultures, but it can get a bit confusing. But Infoplease is here to help you out!

Running on dumbfuck juice for a long while at work now, so I kind of just post this.
Scenario:
MC and gang reached a small town where they stopped a rape of a village girl from happening by the hands of the baron's son. Before the supposed trial of the criminal, MC goes to look for the victim who was adament to testify against the baron's son because she is the only one left in the house (parents died a while ago) and therefore the blackmail from the baron isn't enough to scare her. Cue MC finding her ravaged corpse in the destroyed house and soldiers out of nowhere wanting to arrest him for the charge. Meanwhile at the courthouse, the judge has decreed that the baron's son is innocent and that the gang is the one causing the problem and should be prosecuted instead. While the baron and his son smirk at how things turned out, MC burst into the courtroom and just start killing the guards as he rushes to kill the son. The baron turns out to be just as powerful, if not more than MC as he is capable of stopping MC's rampage and even turning things to a standstill. While the son jeers at the MC, he fails to notice that one of MC's gang has a bow and got shot in the head. Needless to say, the baron is angry and tries to get the guards to kill the MC and gang. Cue deus ex machina with MC having a telephone to call for backup from an earl of a different country.
If there is any way for the earl to butt in, please answer. Because I had tried to use shit like blackmailing to send troops down to wipe the baron's estate out and then bribe him with gold and even the stupid me thinks that it is a stupid idea.
Also, while writing this it reminded me of an old story from China, about the son of an old general going to a rural province for travel.
The general is old, like, 60 to 70 plus and he finally has a son. Then the son got married and the wife got pregnant and they decided to go to the rural province for the festival celebration.
Shit goes south when one of the local gangsters decides to tease the wife and the husband went and beat him up as a lesson. The slightly bruised gangster comes back with his friends and beat him up until he is near death's door. As the man is getting wheeled into A&E, the gangsters rush to stop him from getting any treatment by the doctors over there, even threatening to burn the hospital down. The man then died and his wife ends up having a miscarriage.
The old general, upon hearing this atrocity, tries to get his army to go after the hooligans, but the government stops his actions as it might cause disorder within the provinces. The gangsters are not even caught because of the general lawlessness and they even taunt the general to come into their territory "so that they can teach him what they taught his son". There are also lewd remarks insulting the wife by the gang members just to provoke the old man more.
