My vision for the nobiliary activities of The Augustan Society, Inc., include:
==[[Royalty & Nobility Committee]]==
The Royalty & Nobility Committee is composed of the [[Royalty & Nobility Committee Chairman]], the members chairmen of other committees assigned to the Royalty & Nobility Department, such additional members as the Chairman sees fit, and the [[President]] and [[ConsulsHeadquarters Staff]] as ex officio members.
The Chairman is named by the President and serves at his pleasure. The members are named by the Chairman, and serve at his pleasure.
All activities of the Royalty & Nobility Department fall under the control of this Committee unless the [[Board]] or Chairman has created another Committee and charged them with responsibility.
