Was he duke of Reval (town) or Revalia (county) ??

No one knows exactly. He is said to have been installed as duke of or in Estonia, by his father. He held for some time his fief in Estonia, but was compelled to flee, and settled to his lands in Blekinge. In some sources he is as much as "Duke of Estonia". But Reval is more often written as his title. Also when he had fled Estonia and was in Blekinge, it seems that he used titulary as Reval's duke. Marrtel 00:17, 12 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
