Yeah, if you wanted something a bit more legit, https://www.highlandtitles.com/ offers to become a „Lord/Lady of the Glen“™️. And they are open about it being just for fun. They state:
**You will be addressed by your choice of Laird, Lord or Lady of the Glen by us and within our 300,000+ strong community. Please note you cannot buy a noble title. This is for enjoyment purposes only. *You obtain a personal right to a souvenir plot of land. Highland Titles remains as the registered landowner and manages the land on your behalf.But you get a nice printout and some trinkets as well…
I got two of those for my Birthday years ago. In that year I did a roadtrip with friends around Scotland and visited "my" small plot of land and hugged "my" tree. It was a fun present to get my friends to call me lord the whole trip.
Also, as far as I remember it was a nature reserve too. and because it was divided into thousands of tiny plots it would be near impossible to buy the whole land and destroy the forest.
You only "own" that plot of land in that company's register. If they even keep that. As far as Scottish law goes, the entire land is just one plot, owned by the company.
It's illegal to sell such small plots, so it's literally impossible to actually, legally, purchase a plot of land that small.
They are the only owner and can sell all of it
