In early , counts palatine served as stewards of royal territories in the absence of the Holy Roman emperors. Instead of remaining near the person of the king, some of the counts  palatine were sent to various parts of his empire to act as judges and  governors, the districts ruled by them being called palatinates. Being  in a special sense the representatives of the sovereign, they were  entrusted with more extended power than the ordinary counts. In this way came about the later and more general use of the word "palatine", its  application as an adjective to persons entrusted with special powers but also to the districts over which these powers were exercised.
