The International Commission on Nobility and Royalty
(See Additional Articles below)
Welcome
Introduction to the Commission's Website 
All the major legal principles that promote genuine and authentic nobility, royalty and
chivalry are contained in the following new two volume book. Note what is says in the first
paragraph of the Foreword:
The whole field of nobility and royalty is in disarray and confusion. It is rife with
falsehoods, misguided experts, phony princes, and counterfeit chivalric orders. Besides the
numerous scams and charlatans that exist, there is a widespread misunderstanding of the
international and natural laws that govern dynastic rights. This is a field that is truly
divided. This sad state of affairs need not continue. If international law is honored,
revered and respected, then everything can be set in its proper order. The grand key to this
needed unity is the rule of the just, time-honored laws that already exist.
The author is Dr. Stephen Baca y Kerr, JD, LLM, MAT, former special counsel to the Imperial
and Royal House of Habsburg, Professor and Dean of the Law School at the International
College of Interdisciplinary Studies. His book is The Entitlement to Rule: Legal,
Non-Territorial Sovereignty in International Law and it is a masterpiece. Note
excerpts of what people have said about it:
"It is written in a clear and compelling manner. It is hoped that more and more people
will become familiar with the laws of justice contained in this book." (Thubten
Samphel, director of the Tibet Policy Institute of the Central Tibetan Administration and author
of the book Falling Through the Roof, Dharamshala, India)
"It is magnificently done and of great worth." (Adalberto J. Urbina Briceno,
Sc.D., Professor Head of the Public International Law Chair of the Catholic University Andres
Bello- Caracas)
"It is a goldmine of references and is a valuable account of a [thought provoking] . . .
and poorly understood area of law." (Rev'd Professor Noel Cox, LLM, MA, MTheol,
Ph.D., LTh, FRHists, Barrister, Aberystwyth University, New Zealand)
"Dr. Kerr has put together a book that is a "one of a kind" providing what is
needed to perpetuate the rights of deposed sovereignty. For all those interested in the
legal future of nobility and royalty, this is a very important, scholarly and insightful
book to read." (LaWanna Blount, Ph.D., F.Coll.T, vice president and professor at
the American College of Interdisciplinary Sciences, Como, Mississippi, USA)
"Dr. Kerr's book . . . is one of those . . . path breaking works that throws new light
on a field of study . . . on the complex legal and philosophical sinews that keep alive
[deposed] monarchies. . . . This type of writing fills a huge gap within the royal studies
field. . . ." (Dr. Diana Mandache, historian and author, Budapest, Romania)
"The author obviously has a deep understanding of international law and how it relates
to deposed monarchies and exiled governments. The content is well structured and well
written. I accept this book as conforming to the highest academic standards expected of a
master scholar and practitioner." (Alexander Arapov, Sc.D., Professor of the
Department of Philosophy and Sociology of the All-Russian State Distance-Learning Institute of
Finance and Economics, a branch of the Financial University of the Russian Federation)
"This has been the most interesting and helpful book I have read in the field of
nobiliary law as well as international law . . . . It exemplifies the highest level of
scholarly content, clarity and depth of inquiry yet presented on this profound and important
subject." (Prof. Dr. Mirjana Radovic-Markovic, Academician, Institute of Economic
Sciences and Faculty of Business Economics and Entrepreneurship, Belgrade, Serbia)
This unique book is being offered for free because of its singular importance to the field of
nobility and royalty. Go to the website: www.the-entitlement-to-rule.com.
The International Commission on Nobility and Royalty presently consists of over 60
members and contributors and seven board members and officers. This includes some scholars and
experts in the field of nobility and royalty and a working association with four royal  houses. No one is paid -- everything is done voluntarily. This association
is organized to benefit society with what we consider to be of great worth and value. We average
about at least 5,000+ hits a day. (See our " Public
Newsletter") Our main goal and purpose is education to dispel the
various misunderstandings that exist about Constitutional Monarchy, Royalty, Nobility and
Chivalry, and show how it is really a shining gift that benefits those countries that either
adopt it or preserve it.
In fact, research has shown that those countries that have constitutional monarchsgenerally have
the best economies, wealth, prosperity, freedom and stability on the earth.
The Problem and the Purpose
The International Commission on Nobility and Royalty was originally conceived to protect
the field of nobility and royalty from modern day pirates who impersonate, and by their
fraudulent declarations defame and denigrate those who hold authentic titles and valid claims.
Education through articles are the chief means the Commission will use to defend and preserve
the field from the menacing forces that are presently besieging it and denigrating its members.
Regrettably, there are literally thousands of people with phony titles of nobility, who claim
royal or noble descent. They are masquerading as genuine title holders throughout the earth.
Some thirty or more foul organizations are deceifully pumping out hundreds of counterfeit title
holders, and at least forty plus self-appointed phony orders of chivalry exist -- giving out
imitation knighthoods rather than authentic ones. By the turn of the century, this kind of fraud
has more than quadrupled. The problem is, not only are they fake, but title inflation cheapens
the greatness of those who are real, and hold authentic titles and genuine honors.
Another way this hurts what is real, is that number of these self-deceived impersonators believe
they are suddenly high class and give out bad examples, which makes what is real look bad. That
is, instead of being unpretentious and dignified, they are, to some degree, showy, high minded
and haughty, which behaviour turns people off; such that, those who deal with them tend to
consider all title holders with distain as snobby individuals. The legitimate nobles are not
this way, but it is often quite difficult to discern the actual and real from the fakes without
specialize knowledge -- hence, the existence and importance of this website.
 Others claim illustrious ancestors based on nothing more than family fairy tales
or vague legends passed down through the generations, or because of unscrupulous greedy men who
sell unproven pedigrees on the internet to the unwary and unguarded.
In general, internet fraud is a frightening and growing problem. The Internet Crime Complaint
Center reports over $500 million worth dalors worth of fraud in 2010. This huge amount only
expresses what has been complained about to the authorities. Much more fraud actual occurred --
probably seven to eight times as much, but was never reported. This kind of crime is rampant and
epidemic. It also exists in the field of nobility and royalty.
It is a very sad and undeniable fact that we live in a day of increasing frauds, bogus titles
and scoundrels who plunder and take advantage of the innocent and the ignorant. Hence, there
really needs to be a practical and effective organization designed to help protect the public
and safeguard it from the lies and deceit of the self-proclaimed title consultants, fake
knighthoods and unaccredited genealogists.
Another threat to the field is the domestic or nationalistic belief that any title of nobility
given by a former sovereign house in current times is for private use only and has no worth or
value, because no government will recognize it. However, under international law, deposed royal
houses are legally sovereign and therefore can preserve those rights by obedience to the laws
that can preserve it intact from generation to generation. (Please see the article DEPOSED SOVEREIGNTY AND
ROYALTY: how to preserve it and how to lose it)
The International Commission has been organized as a private, non-public organization. It was
with the idea in mind of protecting the public like a professional association or licensing
board would. It has not been set up to expose false nobility or make believe titles, but to
educate people so they can recognize counterfeiters as some create impressive websites, and
mislead very skillfully.
We have the ambition of making it eminently obvious to all people that constitutional monarchy
is a choice that has brought prosperity and stability to most of the richest and most democratic
nations on earth -- nations that are doing an unusually good job of protecting our most precious
of rights as human beings -- principles such as life, liberty and the free pursuit of happiness.
In order to be effective in combating the identified threats to nobility and royalty and in
promoting the immense potential for good that monarchy can create, we invite people everywhere
to become members though donations to enable us to fulfill our important purposes.
To become fully operational, to accomplish our mission, to make a real difference in the world,
we need your support. No one makes a salary in this organization. Everyone is a volunteer from
the president on down. Every little amount contributed means that we can expand and enlarge our
operations to measure up to the immense task that is before us. Your help is needed and wanted.
Please make the future brighter and contribute.
How to Identify a Scam and Thus Protect Yourself
 There are plenty of scammers or self-deceived people out there on the worldwide
web. Part of our focus is on those selling fake titles or knighthoods or who impersonate what is
real and genuine. Please see the articles " Fake Titles and
Counterfeits," " Title of Nobility
Scams," and " Orders of
Chivalry" for information on how to recognize if a person or
organization is bogus or real.
 " If the offer of an "opportunity"
appears too good to be true, it probably is." Follow common business practice. For
example, a legitimate business rarely conducts in cash on a street corner.
 Know who you are dealing with. If you have not heard of a person,
so-called prince or order of chivalry that you intend to do business with, learn more about
them. Depending on the amount of money that you intend to spend, you may want to visit the
business location, check with the Better Business Bureau or consult with your bank, an attorney,
the police or the FBI fraud center.
 Make sure you fully understand any business agreement that you enter
into. If the terms are complex, have them reviewed by a competent attorney.
 Be wary of businesses that operates out of post office boxes or mail
drops and does not have a street address. Dealing with persons who do not a telephone line or
are not licensed with the city and state in which they operate or have no other solid and
reliable ways of contacting them are questionable.
 We have been members of two organizations to assure the public we are
what we claim to be and do our best to be reliable, honest, sincere and true to our proclaimed
purposes.
 If you have questions about a self-proclaimed prince, royal or noble
house, or order of chivalry, make inquiry, investigate them, do your homework, read the relevant
articles, but please do not let yourself be taken in by any questionable operation no matter how
authentic and genuine they present themselves to be. Remember that only the " truth can
make you free." (John 8:32) Free from very costly and humiliating mistakes.
A Mark of Distinction
Ethical conduct is a core value --- fundamental and basic to everything we stand for.
Our motto is "built on solid evidence." In other words, we are an evidence
based society. Everything must be factual, accurate and true. To do otherwise is to violate the
whole purpose of our existence. We were created for the express purpose to promote the ideals of
what is both true and real, as well as valid and authentic, in the important fields of monarchy,
nobility and chivalry.
 Our Code of Conduct provides essential guidelines and obligations to the
highest standards of ethics. Not only to comply with the law and common decency, but in good
faith to do our very best to be outstanding, cost/effective and reliable in all our dealings.
We have, therefore, as a business belonged to " Chamber of Commerce on the Web,"
which is " The Seal of Integrity in Online Business" for over eight years.
"T he Chamber of Commerce on the Web" may be contacted at admin@chamberofcommerce-ontheweb.com (Chamber
of Commerce, 2013: http://chamberofcommerce-ontheweb.com)
The sole purpose of our membership in the Chamber was to provide an environment in which a
claimant or client could be confident, assured and correct in trusting us to do what we say we
will do.
In addition to proving ourselves to be a business organization of integrity, while operating as
a for-profit business, the Commission achieved the highest rating of an "A+"
while we operated as a business through the "Better Business Bureau®In Northern
Nevada." That is, on a scale of A+ to F, the commission received the following:
"BBB® Non-Accredited A+ Rating"
However, since the International Commission is no longer a business, but has downsized to a
become a strictly voluntary service organization, continuing as a though we were a business,
make no sense.
We will, of course, continue to serve the best that we can and uphold all our former standards
for truth and integrity.
The positive honors we have achieved in the past will be continued. Ideals and ethics are
important to us and will continue to be a guiding factor in all our decisions. It is central to
all that we do.
