I've been investigating the Empire of Brazil as research for a certain monarchical America timeline I might be doing at some point, but there's something I'm not too sure about.
I was just wondering whether anyone knew what privileges were given to the Brazilian nobility, if any? I understand the structure of the nobility, but I can't find anything that says for sure whether the titles were empty, or whether nobles recieved some form of privileges or payment from the state for their noble titles. Does anyone here know?
Thanks in advance!
