Politics and government
The Commonwealth of Arizona is organized as a popular monarchy, in which the King derives his just Powers and Legitimacy from the Consent of his People. In the Commonwealth of Arizona, the King is answerable to his people, and he reigns so long as he maintains the confidence of his people. However, unlike popular monarchies elsewhere, the King is styled not as the "King of the Arizonans", but as the "King of Arizona".

Etiquette
Vampire society in Arizona is formal and egalitarian. Unlike monarchies among humans, vampiric monarchies do not confer any titles of nobility. Rather, vampiric monarchies connotate a place of honor and esteem vested in the monarch by his or her countrymen: The titles of King and Queen are egalitarian, much like "President", "Governor", and "Prime Minister" among humans.

In Arizona, as in most other vampire kingdoms, all vampires other than the monarch are styled Sir or Madam, while the monarch is styled using a variant of Sir/Madam, namely Sire in the case of the King, and Lady in the case of the Queen. These titles serve no purpose other than to denote positions of trust and honor.
