Succession to the Gelonian throne

Jump to navigation Jump to search

Succession to the Gelonian throne is determined by descent, gender, legitimacy, and religion. Succession is governed by the Constitution of Gelonia , which established the Monarchy of Gelonia utilizing the male-preference cognatic primogeniture succession laws of the House of Rouanti. The Constitution restricts succession to legitimate descendants of Arthur Rouanti (Arthur X in pretence) that are members of the Church of Gelonia.

King Arthur XI is the sovereign, and his heir presumptive is Lena, Princess Royal.
