The Ríog of Gaellicia is the head of state of the United Kingdom of Gaellicia. Ríog translates most accurately to monarch. The term is gender-neutral and is used to describe both male and female rulers. The position of Ríog is not hereditary. An individual is selected for the position from a pool of candidates put forward by clans. Candidates complete a series of trials known as the Taghadh na Teine, the trial by fire, before a final decision is made by a council of clan elders. The current Ríog is Bricius IV of the Clan Urquhart. Each clan has a unique method for determining its leadership and inheritance structures.
