Daniel, there are clowns. 
Yeah, the point was correct, even if part of the statement was false.

Typically, in Western European nobility, the rank, from top to bottom is:

Emperor
King
Prince
Duke
Marquis
Count/Earl
Viscount
Baron
Knight

There were other titles, as well, but that's what I would consider the basic structure. And of course, not all sovereign nations had Emperors, so without anyone with that title, the King would be at the top of the aristocracy.
