When your fortress meets the requirements the Template:L will approach you about becoming a barony. You will then have the option to promote a dwarf of your choice to the rank of baron, which will occur some time later.

Since the baron is being promoted from within, s/he will not be an immigrant, and thus no baron consort will accompany her/him. Also, the arrival/promotion of the baron will not necessarily usher in the Template:L.

Some have met the requirements and not received the option to promote a dwarf to a baron, this is a bug.^Bug:519

This bug can be avoided by putting off the meeting with the liaison (e.g. by keeping the mayor busy or locking him up in a room) until the trade caravan has left. source

Requirements

According to Toady [1]

• Have a caravan leave when your pop is 20
• Exported 10k wealth
• Created 100k wealth
