Thomas II of Piedmont → Thomas, Count of Flanders — He is generally known as "Thomas II [of Savoy]", but this is incompatible with our current guidelines, since that title implies that he was the second Thomas to rule Savoy, but though he ruled it as regent he was never Count of Savoy. He was also not the second Thomas of Piedmont, as the current tiile implies. He was the first ruler of Piedmontese apanage. He was the Count of Flanders jure uxoris for seven years, and this the highest title he ever held. It is the first title of this article (I believe) and it is the best option.

Support That makes perfect sense. I considered moving the article myself. Surtsicna (talk) 19:30, 1 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Support Count of Flanders is a higher title. But just to say Thomas II was the second ruler of Piedmont with the name Thomas. His father Thomas I was also rulers of Piedmont, along with Savoy. Seperation of a state or the creation of a state doesn't necessarily implied that regnal numbers restart, ie. Castile-Leon and the UK.--Queen Elizabeth II's Little Spy (talk) 00:19, 3 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
