According to Wikipedia (based on several reliable books and articles) makes it clear:

Prince
Duke
Marquess
Count
Viscount
Baron
Knight
Ecuyer

So HH the Prince of Ligne outranks the Duke of Arenberg in Belgium.

Does HSH The Duke of Arenberg outrank HH The Prince of Ligne because a duke outranks a prince?

or

Does HH The Prince of Ligne outrank HSH The Duke of Arenberg because a Highness outranks a Serene Highness?
