The Marquis of Provence is a historical title associated with the region of Provence in southern France. This title was held by noble families who governed the area during the medieval period and beyond. The title reflects the feudal system, where land and power were often concentrated in the hands of a few aristocrats. The title became particularly notable in the 15th century when it was linked to the House of Anjou. The Marquis of Provence played a significant role in the political landscape of France, especially during the time of the French Revolution, when many noble titles were abolished.
