Si quisbusvis curiis publicis imperii dux Austrie praesens fuerit, unus de palatinis archiducibus est censendus, et nichilominus in consessu et incessu ad latus dextrum imperii post electores principes obtineat primum locum.

Etymology
archi- (“arch-, highest”) + dux (“duke”). First attested in the 10th century in reference to Bruno the Great, who ruled simultaneously as an archbishop and a duke, but only current after revival by Rudolf IV of Austria in a forged document, the Privilegium Maius (1358–1359), to justify claims of precedence over other princes of the Holy Roman Empire.
