Use dmy dates date April 2012 From the early Middle Ages up until early Modern world modern times , the nobility was the true basis of power for the English crown. The peerage was where the king would turn for military, judicial and administrative purposes, and the ruler who ignored his nobility, like Edward II of England Edward II , did so at great risk to his position. The peerage can perhaps best be compared to the Cabinet government cabinets of modern day Prime Ministers or Presidents, though their power and responsibilities were much wider. The emergence of Parliament of England Parliament did not seriously erode the power of the nobility until, at the earliest, the 17th century. Below can be found lists of the Peerage of England and Ireland during selected years of the Middle Ages. Though this approach naturally will exclude certain important individuals, the lists still work as snap shots of the elite of the nation at regular intervals during the Middle Ages. Up until 1340, when the first duke dom was created 1337 , the lists only include Earl s. From 1390 Marquess ates are also included 1385 , and from 1450 Viscount cies 1446 . For practical reasons a cut of line has been made, excluding Baron ies.
