Talk:Steward (office)

Untitled
"As Norway was a separate kingdom with its own laws and institutions, it was arguably the most influential office in both Denmark-Norway and in the Swedish-Norwegian realm second to that of the king" - where is the logic in this sentance? it's said that "as Norway", meaning, "when Norway" so I take as "after Norway" - was separated and no longer part of a union with Denmark or Sweden it (the statholder office) was the most influential office in the Denmark-Norway and in the Swedish-Norwegian realm, but Norway is already separted from them so I don't know what to get of it.

The last three section are absolutly horribly written.

Article seems to mix up several different roles/concepts.
The lede defines "steward" as a type of governor/regent/viceroy, and says it is derived from the title of a household manager. But all the examples of jobs actually titled "steward" (Lord Steward, Lord High Steward, Lord High Steward of Scotland) are all either the original household manager, or something else entirely. All the examples of governors/regents don't actually use the title "steward", just something that is at best etymologically related to it (in the case of the Dutch Stadtholder), or completely unrelated).
