It's really fascinating that the UK reached the zenith because of its Queens and not kings. Elizabeth I, Victoria, Elizabeth II (not area, but modernisation and economy). In fact the British Empire was at its peak during Victoria's reign!

We have such a strong legacy of female royals 💪 Don't forget: Boudica - the legend speaks for itself. She's like the first thing I remember learning about history in school. Lady Æthelfæd of Mercia - lead her army into battle and is believed to have been the same model of her father, our only 'Great' Empress Matilda - beloved in the HRE and ultimately won the pyrrhic Anarchy Mary 1 and Anne - massively need a historical rewrite as their legacy isn't as justified or complimentary as it ought to be. Mary 2 - meh 🤷🏼‍♂️ Jane - poor bitch 😔 🧎‍♀️🪓

Fun fact: Denmark has never had pure agnatic primogeniture; several times we ran out of heirs entirely, and had to go back to a female line to find someone. The Glücksburg family, for instance, which took over with Christian the 9th in 1863, inherited their claim to the Danish throne through his wife, not through him.
@emeilowep
@emeilowep Год назад
The marriage was only part of his claim. He was also was closely related to the former king through his mother's line and had close relations and a high status within the kingdom and most importantly, he was Duke of Schleswig, Holstein and Lauenburg (something that mattered a lot in the times leading up to the Schleswig wars). We did have pure agnatic primogeniture for most of our history since Frederik III. Only exemption after that was Christian IX. Before Frederik III it was officially an elective kingdom.

@@emeilowep strictly speaking, Kongeloven (The Law of Kings), which determined exactly who could inherit and in what order, includes female lines, but sets them after male lines, so even after F3, it wasn't pure agnatic, the female descended lines were considered viable heirs if no one else could be found.
@emeilowep

@@KittTheHistorian but we didn’t run out of male heirs several times. Only happened once since the introduction of the Lex Regia in 1665. Before that it was elective so female lines were considered only because there wasn’t a strict line of succession. But you are correct that the Lex Regia was not strictly agnatic though it didn’t allow for female monarchs.
@KittTheHistorian
@KittTheHistorian Год назад
@emeilowep considering that Kongeloven was the legal basis for the rule of every subsequent king, it doesn't really matter that we didn't run out of heirs, the law was still in effect, which meant that though it was agnatic in practice, the monarchy was not truly agnatic in nature. Considering people were prosecuted according to other sections of this legal text (Griffenfeld and Struensee most notably), it is accurate to say that its other sections, regardless of whether they were actively used, were equally legally valid.

Well technically the Spanish monarchy used male preference primogeniture from 1516, when Juana succeeded to the throne of Aragon upon her father's death but switched back to agnatic when the Bourbons came to power in 1700. It then adopted male preference again in 1833 when Ferdinand VII died , leaving behind 2 daughters and no sons, in order for the Spanish crown to remain in that dynasty...which actually caused rival claimants rising up to contend Isabella II's claim.

I am Spanish and I know how and why that law change never happened. By the Spanish law, changing the succession law would mean changing the Spanish constitution and for the constitution to change it needs like two thirds of the parliament to agree, then a general election and then a referendum for the population to vote if they want or not that law to change. With the Spanish monarchy not being, at the time, as popular as others, the government thought it was not a good idea to organise a referendum on the monarchy, even if it was to give full rights to girls in the succession. I kinda like your pronunciation of Infanta. And of Irene. We pornounced it Ee-reh-neh. I wonder if Margaretha's father would have named her Christina or Christiana if he had known that she'd be Queen.

I would like to note that the King of Sweden was not opposed to absolute primogentiture. He WAS against making it retroactive. His son had already been titled as Crown Prince, and he didn't think it was appropriate to take it away from him. If they had introduced the bill before his son was born, when the titles wouldn't have needed changing, he wouldn't have had an issue.
@SilverSoulxd
@SilverSoulxd 10 месяцев назад
Correction about the spanish succesion order: Princess Leonor is the heir to the throne, she already has the title of Princess of Asturias. The thing is, even if a male son was born, there is nothing on our Constitution that says the title of Prince/Princess of Asturias can be revoked. If I remember correctly, there should be a vote in the Congress if that was the case, but being honest, we are in 2023 and our Princess is highly loved and admired, so I don't think anyone would want to replace her as heir to the throne. In fact, it would be a little hard to do it, it's a tough process (don't want to get into technicality of it). So yeah, 99% sure she would remain the heir even if Felipe VI had a son.

But it also means changing these laws with the general approval of parliament or of the people. Even some 'absolute' monarchs (like Henry VIII) had to angle what they want done in a way that would also benefit the aristocracy, who often are the foundations of the power bases of rulers. If the change is popular enough, they can definitely do so - but if a wayward, entitled and rash prince wanted their way on something that ticked off other lords, they could find themselves at a possibility of being deposed if they pursue it long and doggedly enough.

One small point. Neither Princess Ragnhild nor Princess Astrid hold any ducal titles whatsoever. There are no royal dukes in Norway, and the state dosen't recognize any form of nobility (with the singular exception of those bearing either diplomatic credentials or the recognition of a foreign court). Their proper titles are: Her highness Princess Ragnhild, Mrs. Lorentzen and Her highness Princess Astrid, Mrs. Ferner. They both married commoners and lost the prefix "Royal" (as in Royal highness). I believe both their husbands were somewhat prominent buisness people, if memory serves. Princess Ragnhild served as first lady of Norway for a time. Following the deaths of her mother, Princess Märtha, and her grandmother, Queen Maud, about two decades prior. She and her husband would eventually move to Brazil, as I understand it.

Well, I got here early. Always love your uploads 👋 14:58 This isn’t entirely true. Spain switched to agnatic primogeniture between the reigns of Philip V (the first Bourbon) and his great-grandson, Ferdinand VII, where it was then switched back to allow his infant daughter, Isabella, to succeed him. Also for anyone wondering, the Dutch royal family is in the line of succession through Queen Wilhelmina’s husband, Duke Henry of Mecklenburg-Schwerin, as he was a descendant of George I’s only daughter, Sophia Dorothea. 25:05 This prospect ended with the Franco-Monégasque Treaty of 2002, due to UN objections over the explicitness at which Monaco’s sovereignty could be violated by France.

The Constitution did say the succession was restricted to Juan Carlos' "sucesores" but there is no clarification if that means direct descendants or not. If not, then there's also a question about whether Juan Carlos' sisters renunciations were valid first, as they renounced their claims before the new 1978 constitution. If they are included, then their descendants would follow Irene. There isn't any certainty about whether the Duke of Calabria's descendants are actually in line.

She was instead given the following titles: Plenipotentiary Madame and Intermediary and guardian of the entire kingdom of Denmark. Mighty Madame and rightful Intermediary of Norway Plenipotentiary Madam and Right Intermediary of Sweden. The reason why we today acknowledge her as Margrete the I of Denmark, Norway and Sweden (yes, them too), is because of Queen Margrethe the II. When she was about to be proclaimed Queen on January 14th 1972, she was the first official Queen Regnant in all of Denmark’s history, and had she gone with tradition, she would have been supposed to just take the Regnal name Queen Margrethe, no number. Because a monarch is not numbered in real life, until there is a second of that name. The Danish line of Kings have a few of these, the most recent was King Hans (John in English), who reigned from 1481-1513, between Kings Christian the I and II. But Queen Margrethe made the decision to honor her namesake’s well known legacy, that hadn’t been recognized with the actual title of Queen Regnant in her lifetime. And she was instead given the honor of henceforth being known as Margrete the I, with Queen Margrethe the II’s decision to be proclaimed as such.

There was also a semi agnatic primogeniture that allowed women to succeed only when the male line was entirely extinct. Until 1887 the Netherlands had that as did Portugal and Saxony. Then there was succession by Pragmatic sanction in which one or more daughters were declared male for the purposses of succession, when the male line threatened to become extinct. This was done in Austria when Maria Theresa succeeded and in Luxembourg when William IV was succeeded by his daughters.

2:18 The primogeniture rules are used as in tradition as people wanted the royal houses to remain intact for a long time. People also wanted the royal houses to be patrilineal, as it makes sense that the heir to the throne should be part of the king's royal family, as the king has a higher royal ranking than a queen (that's why we have queen consorts but no king consorts, yet...). Therefore, agnatic primogeniture and absolute patrilineal dynasties are basically like twins, as they get along together smoothly until the end of time. The royal houses only change when the king dies without an heir. In male-preferenced primogeniture, the royal house always changes whenever a queen marries her prince consort. The new royal house will be the prince consort's royal family, so male-preferenced primogeniture and patrilineal dynasties still get along, but they may reach arguments along the way whenever a queen is crowned the monarch. Absolute primogeniture and absolute patrilineal dynasties are basically enemies, as implementing absolute primogeniture while keeping the dynasties patrilineal involves changing the royal house, theoretically, once every 2 generations (assuming all queens marry their KING consorts this time), which forces the dynasty to adjust to matrilineal once a queen is crowned. That's why King Charles III belongs to the House of Windsor, and not the House of Mountbatten. If Queen Elizabeth II died while the primogeniture is still male-preferenced, the UK monarchy will get a chance to rule under the House of Mountbatten.
@_levi07
@_levi07 Год назад
But we have had king consorts in history; e.g Queen Isabella II of Spain, Francis, Duke of Cadiz, is known to have used that title. Also the patrilineal issue is a great point, however you will realise that most monarchs in Europe today are very much cognatic descendants of their ancestors.
@davidmb1316

Prince Philip was only a Mountbatten (Battenberg) due to his mother so that's technically also a matrilineal dynasty. Patrilineally, Philip, Charles, William and George belong to the House of Glücksburg.
@Zadir09
@Zadir09 11 месяцев назад
The UK solved this problem when King George V issued letters patent which declared that the royal house would forevermore be “Windsor”, no matter what. King and Queen Regnant are equal in rank. A King consort makes no sense as the word “King” is equivalent to that of “Queen Regnant”, just without the “Regnant” attached as it is already included in the definition of King. And the titles are really irrelevant and are granted today at the Monarch’s pleasure. For instance, Prince Philip wasn’t actually a Prince as it is a landed title attached to a principality, he was given the title Prince out of kindness.

Lilian was a Walesish commoner and a divorcee.

Carl XVI Gustav of Sweden is arguably not in line for the British throne because his mother, from which he derived the claim, married in contravenence of the Royal Marriages act. That Act is now defunct but it's successor does not restore the descendants of those who previously failed if they could reasonably have known about the provisions of the defunct Act. Which could be expected of the daughter of a British Prince.
