The Court of Oren was the standing system of courtiers and councilors that resided within the imperial palace of the Holy Orenian Empire & Orenian Kingdom beside the ruling house, the latest- and final -being the House of Novellen. The court was a vital part of Orenian society and had been for centuries, being a hotspot of cultural enterprise and the upkeep of high society. However, it was also a point of great controversy and criticism since the Dawn of Oren as a result of the pomp and exclusivity exuded as a place of strict hierarchy between noble and commoner that was rivaled by little other courts. A strong court had been an integral part of a strong government since the times of the Horen Restoration, when the palace morphed into a center of activity, and a performance of power and unity. Throughout orenian history, there had been countless court reformations, declines, scandals and etc, that had happened in the courts, with more recent periods seeing a stagnancy in the functions of court positions.

Notable courts included that of John III and his consort Julia of Furnestock's, which was a court that holds remembrance in history for its exhibitions of art and power. Another would be that of the Emperor of Man, Augustus and his consort Helen of Carolustadt's, with the presence of Maria Viktoria of Krajia, a beloved socialite who molded the courts and fashions of Renatus at her will.
