Margrave
From Wookieepedia, the Star Wars wiki.
Margrave was the title of the hereditary monarch of Togoria. The Margrave was always a male, who lived as a nomadic hunter just as other Togorian males did. His only distinction was that it was a great honor to be invited to pitch a tent with his camp.[1]
The female population was ruled by either the Margrave's mate, or his closest female relative. She lived in the planetary capital, Caross.[1]
In 10 BBY, the Margrave invited Han Solo to live on Togoria permanently, to thank him for helping Muuurgh and his mate Mrrov. This was an honor given to few non-Togorians.[2]

[edit] Behind the scenes
The title of Margrave was used as a rank of peerage in parts of continental Europe, especially in the former Holy Roman Empire. Margraves ranked above a Count, but below a Duke.
