Yes, but a woman can inherit the throne if the male line extincts.

We followed Salic Law until the 1910s. Then we followed a law that guaranteed the firstborn the throne, regardless of gender.
Uses certain NS stats.

Atlantis is an MT nation that is the third richest country in the world, behind only China and the United States. It is closer to the USA, UK, Italy and Spain (in that order, though Italy and Spain is probably tied) culturally than it is Greece. It is also a naval power.

And no, Atlantis is not underwater: It has a land area around the size of France.

Pros: Classical liberalism, democracy, the West, Brexit, Viktor Orban, free education, strong military
Cons: Authoritarianism, fascism, communism, multiculturalism, Islamism

Page adhered to Salic law until 2001, in which King Daniel Riveri issued a decree that women of the royal family could ascend to the throne. As King Daniel still has no children of his own, Lady Alisyn is the heir apparent and might one day become the first queen of Page.

No, the sovereign may be of either gender. The Crown passes to the eldest child of the sovereign.

We did for a long time ban women from succession. Until a few centuries back where one Kaiser had 5 daughters and no sons. At the time the monarch had a lot more power so he changed the succession laws, this ruffled feathers among the nobility but in the end they abide by it and his eldest daughter became the first Kaiserin.

Women are strongly encouraged to run for office in this country. We do not honor Salic law and we discourage our allies from honoring such stupid legislation as well.

Women are just as capable of running a nation as men are if not more capable!

Zhouran's thousands-of-years of monarchism ended in 1956. But back when Zhouran was a monarchy, only men could be ayanbaisangs (emperors) since noble status can only be passed paternally.

Yes-of course.

This nation is not entirely representative of my views. I've had some fun with the stats and I want to keep them that way.

Only Decepticons may rule over other Decepticons. To be considered a Decepticon, one must not only espouse and promote our ideologies and be loyal to our Empire, but also physically be a Decepticon robot as defined by our legal codes for body design.

This means that neither men nor women may attain any roles of governmental authority within the Empire, for gender is a function of biology. A biological of any sort is categorically ineligible.

We suppose that in a way, this could be considered a variation of Salic Law since it relies on a physical feature to determine basic qualification for leadership roles.

Purpelian succession law basically boils down to the current head of the family choosing who gets what. And if no details are provided the family handles this selection internally through a brisk debate. Male, female, young old or whatever matters very little. As long as one is a true Purpelian of course. Nobody likes foreigners and unpurpelians.
Purpelia does not reflect my actual world views. In fact, the vast majority of Purpelian cannon is meant to shock and thus deliberately insane. I just like playing with the idea of a country of madmen utterly convinced that everyone else are the barbarians. So play along or not but don't ever think it's for real.



The above post contains hyperbole, metaphoric language, embellishment and exaggeration. It may also include badly translated figures of speech and misused idioms. Analyze accordingly.

We actually have the opposite in Off The Hook. Only women may be Queen and they must be in the royal family.
