List of Isselmere-Nielander monarchs

This is a work in progress.

The current dynasty is the House of Glaines-Oldmarch, or more precisely the House of Caitwuil-Houmbertis-Sigurdsson-Alvarsson. The present dynasty acceded to the throne in 1562, although both branches of the dynasty held the thrones of the respective kingdoms long before that date.

In 1038, the Kingdom of Isselmere adopted primogeniture, formalised by the accession of Ethling (r. 1063–1085) to the throne. Primogeniture was not recognised in law until the birth of Berthuis I the Ravager in 1069. The Constitution Act, 1986 introduced cognatic primogeniture.

Line of succession

The line of succession is based upon four statutes — the Charter of Inheritance, 1013, the Articles of Succession, 1349, the Act of Settlement, 1557, and the Act of Consolidation, 1562 — as well as the Constitution Act, 1986. The Constitution Act established cognatic primogeniture as the means of dynastic succession.

The first in line to the throne is the Crown Prince and Duke of Glaines, the latter title stemming from the reign of Alfred I (r. 1349–1372). Since 1562, the Crown Prince is the Duke of Oldmarch as well. Next in line is the Grand Duke of Detmere, or Duke of Detmere should the second in line to the throne not be an offspring of the reigning monarch. The third in line of succession is the Duke of Daurmont, or the Prince of Anguist should he or she be a direct descendent of the reigning monarch. (The latter title arises from the Constitution Act.) The eldest sibling of the reigning monarch is the Duke of Huise whilst the second sibling is known as the Duke of Angforth.

The present line of succession is listed below:

HINM Henry V, King of Isselmere-Nieland, King of Isselmere and Anguist, King of Detmere, King of Nieland, Lord High Steward of Glaines and Oldmarch, Lord Protector of Gudrof, Duke of Upper Gudrof, Grand Duke of Cerovia
