===Origin===
Principalities come from Colossians 1:16, which mentions that God is the creator of thrones, dominions, principalities, and powers; this is interpreted by some as referring to kinds of angels. This is reinforced by the Catholic angelic hierarchy, where they are referenced to be at the top of the Third Sphere of angels.<ref>https://www.ewtn.com/catholicism/library/angelic-hierarchy-9897</ref> Principality's original Latin name, ''principatus'', is also translatable to "Princedom" or "Ruler".
Principalities are one of the ranks in the hierarchy of angels according to Pseudo-Dionysius in ''On the Celestial Hierarchy''. The name is derived from Ephesians 1:21, which mentions that God is far above all principality, [[power]], [[Virtue|might]], and [[dominion]]; and from Colossians 1:16, which mentions that God is the creator of [[throne]]s, dominions, principalities, and powers. The angelic hierarchy is accepted by the Catholic Church and the Eastern Orthodox Church, where Principalities are referenced to be at the top of the Third Sphere of angels.<ref>https://www.ewtn.com/catholicism/library/angelic-hierarchy-9897</ref> Principality's Latin name, ''principatus'' (translated from the Greek ἀρχή ''archḗ'', "sovereignty; authority"), is also translatable to "Princedom" or "Ruler".
 
Isidore of Seville claims that principalities earned their name because "they charge the angels below them with fulfilling the divine ministry."<ref>{{Cite Book|chapter=Book VII: God, angels, and saints (De deo, angelis et sanctis)|book=The Etymologies of Isidore of Seville|publyear=2006|author=Barney, Stephen A; Lewis, WJ; Beach, JA; Berghof, O|publisher=Cambridge University Press|edition=1st|page=p. 161|isbn=978-0-511-21969-6}}</ref>


Principalities are portrayed as angels that are responsible for ruling, leading, and guiding people, groups, and institutions, especially the Church. They also preside over groups of lower level angels, specifically Archangels and Angels. Principalities primarily take orders from Dominions, the leaders of the Second Sphere.

Principality is a Demon in the Megami Tensei franchise.

Profile

Origin

Principalities are one of the ranks in the hierarchy of angels according to Pseudo-Dionysius in On the Celestial Hierarchy. The name is derived from Ephesians 1:21, which mentions that God is far above all principality, power, might, and dominion; and from Colossians 1:16, which mentions that God is the creator of thrones, dominions, principalities, and powers. The angelic hierarchy is accepted by the Catholic Church and the Eastern Orthodox Church, where Principalities are referenced to be at the top of the Third Sphere of angels.[1] Principality's Latin name, principatus (translated from the Greek ἀρχή archḗ, "sovereignty; authority"), is also translatable to "Princedom" or "Ruler".

Isidore of Seville claims that principalities earned their name because "they charge the angels below them with fulfilling the divine ministry."[2]

Principalities are portrayed as angels that are responsible for ruling, leading, and guiding people, groups, and institutions, especially the Church. They also preside over groups of lower level angels, specifically Archangels and Angels. Principalities primarily take orders from Dominions, the leaders of the Second Sphere.
