Partition Inheritance

partition_inheritance

It is a type of Succession Law of a Monarchy in which the Ruler is the oldest male child of the previous Ruler and all other male descendants receive rights to minor titles and territories. Female children can never inherit, nor transfer the right to the throne to their own sons.

When a new ruler rises to power the least controlled provinces of the country get further penalties to their Control as they are divided between the brothers of the new ruler.
