The Earl of Canterbury is a very rich man who is married to a lady they are both very silly and lack intelligence. Earls are given there names for noble birth by Anglo-saxons similar to the old Norse (Scandinavian) word Jarl which meant chieftain which means they rule certain pieces of land in the kings stead Earl do not have the power to invade and so are only caretakers of the land. In middle ages over in Scandinavia it became fashion to change the title to duke. An Earl is very ridiculas in what they wear bit like jedward's hair or lady gaga and Katie Perry's choice in clothing. The Earl of Canterbury can be described best as a drama queen. Although posh he can be mistaken for gay as he wears a ridiculas head piece fluffed up shoulder braces and earings and other jewels often wore by a lady.
