Succession Law

heir_selection

Every Government has a Succession Law which defines which Character shall be the next Ruler once the current one dies or abdicates.

Many Succession Laws define an Heir before the succession occurs based on the Heir Score of that character, while others trigger an Election.

Each different Succession Law has its own rules, such as whether an heir may be of the same Dynasty, or if they must belong to specific Estates.

A Country may select another Succession Law; the options available can be influenced by factors such as the current Government Type and any active Government Reforms.
