If you were offered the chance to go back in time and become a noble from the 1100's would you do it and if yes what rank would you be willing to settle for (Count, Duke, king ect.)

No, I rather like central heating/ac, electricity, the internet, refrigeration, preserved foods, and not being obligated to go to war every couple years.

That being said, if I had no choice i'd go for Duke as it seems the most comfy
>be related to King without all of the scary uncertainty of being the King
>a lot of land for income and cheeky things to patronize like monasteries and maybe a university

Nigger shit was more complicated that nuclear physics. This ain't some anime where the loser goes to elf-girl world and his useless skills become his greatest strength. I'd run the nation into ruin in one day, be stuck in a marriage with a bitch I don't like, and probably be assassinated by my brother who was cucking me with the bitch I don't like.

Fucking yes. As long as I had at least as much land as, say, Liechtenstein, I'd be happy.

In the 12th century? I would only if I was in the Byzantine empire. I wouldn't care about any title as long as it wouldn't be Basileus
Grayson Thompson
That happened to Iceland, too.

There were not many dukes in the 1100's. And a Duke (or even a King) was not necessarily stronger than a Count.
The Count of Toulouse and the Count of Flanders who participated in the First Crusade were richer than the King of France (who didn't participated in the First Crusade) or the Duke of Normandy and about as rich as the Duke of Lorraine (a German Duke).
Mason Garcia
If 12th century, then somewhere in Northern Scandinavia as a baron/count.
It was somewhat "peaceful".
