Better Commonwealth Succession Law Proposal:
Why not just, as the Frankish kings did, practice equal inheritance (this time gender-equal)? There are 16 different countries already—is it really fair that one kid gets them all, even if he’s a lady?!
I suspect the kids themselves wouldn’t mind shaking slightly fewer hands and if they do, we’d at least be able to enjoy watching Harry and Wills kill each other over Antigua like Charlemagne’s grandsons.
