0010144: Baroness of another town promoted to duchess upon fortress being elevated to a duchy
My fort was a barony.
One of my citizens inherited the title of baroness of another town somewhere else (a name different to my fort).
They were then granted a slot on the nobles menu and demanded an office, etc., in addition to the actual baroness of my fort.
I'm not sure if that's a bug in and of itself or not.
Anyway, after my fort became a duchy, their title went from "baroness of (Othertown)" to simply "duchess".

It could be that their barony also became a duchy at the same time? But it seems suspicious. And anyway, why don't they have the name of the duchy after "duchess".
It seems to me that she was elevated to a duchess when my fort became a duchy, despite having been the baroness of another town that had the status of barony.
No tags attached.
