House of Novellen (1814 - 1849(?))

The First Grand Duma was declared in 1837 and elected Franz Nikolai as Duke of Adria despite it being enfeoffed in the titles of the Orenian emperor. In retaliation, Emperor Philip II granted his son the Duchy of Adria as a titular title, sparking a time of tension between the Raev houses and the Petrine people.
