Originally, the term aristocrat was used to describe the young men of the ruling class in Athens, Greece, who lead their armies with their swords down. It later passed into usage as an alternate word for the "nobility" of the Middle-Ages, and is today recognised as the description of a descendant of one of 7,000 families with hereditary titles in Britain and other European countries that still acknowledge hereditary titles.[1] As a Knight[2] and Lord[3], Fleet Admiral Hood can be considered an aristocrat.
