	Line of succession to the Belgian Throne Information
		Belgium uses full (lineal) equal primogeniture; since 1991 males and females have equal rights of succession but this only counts for the offspring of King Albert II, effectively barring the female descended offspring of Léopold II, Albert I and Léopold III from the throne.
		(2) In the absence of a nomination undertaken in the above-mentioned manner, the throne shall be vacant.
		Some scholars maintain that Prince Alexander, born 1942, (eldest son of King Léopold III's second marriage and half brother to King Albert II) is legally in line to the throne (currently 15th) but the public generally believes that the descendants of this second marriage have no right to the throne.

	Monarchy - Article about Monarchy
		The order of succession in most European monarchical states of the 21st century is by primogeniture, meaning the eldest son of the monarch is first in line, followed by his male, then female siblings in order of age.
		Currently, there is some controversy over the succession laws of some monarchies in the European Union (EU), such as that of the United Kingdom (UK) or the Scandinavian monarchies, which require their Monarch to be of a certain faith (in the UK under the Act of Settlement 1701).
		Successions in dependent states were often subject to the assent of the dominant power, which then often reserves the right to dethrone (and replace) a 'disloyal' incumbent.

		List goes on to show that by this English method of dealing with gluts the whole manufacturing power, the system of credit, nay, the agriculture and generally the whole economical system of the nations who are placed in free competition with England, are shaken to their foundations.

	The Belgian Succession
		The law makes the throne (more exactly, the constitutional powers of the king) hereditary by primogeniture in the issue of Leopold I. The issue must be direct, legitimate and natural, excluding collateral claims, illegitimate births and adopted children.
		Note that the transitory disposition deems Astrid's marriage to have received the royal consent required by article 85 (probably because, since she had no rights at the time of her marriage in 1984, no such consent was sought or granted).
		The royal decree of 1991 reserves the style of prince of Belgium to the issue of the current king: thus, the children of Leopold III's second marriage are not princes and not entitled to the style of Royal Highness.

		The essentially dualist nature of Belgian federalism is also reflected in the Council of Ministers, which consists of the same number of Dutch-speaking as French-speaking members (linguistic parity).
		The Belgian federal State consists of two types of federated entities that are superimposed one on another: the Communities and the Regions.
		The Belgian Constitution explicitly provides that different political entities must be loyal in their relations with one another (the so-called federal loyalty clause).

		The most comprehensive list of members of the Order since its foundation was published in Naples in 1963; [11] but this contained several errors and omissions which were discovered by the Marquess of Villarreal de Alava, who has shown that there were thirty Italians, nineteen Spanish, two French, two Belgians, one Pole and one German.
		The succession of the Count of Caserta marked a substantial increase in importance of the Constantinian Order, while the Order of Saint Januarius continued to be given only rarely.

	[CTRL] SOME USES AND ABUSES OF THE TITLES OF DUKE OF ANJOU AND
		If his deceased brother passed himself off as a "Spanish prince" but recognized the Orleans as the legitimate pretenders to the throne of France, Don Francisco dropped his brother's absurd Spanish claims (which the latter had the good sense not to flaunt in Spain) and picked one which was even more grotesque.
		We have culled information from a number of Belgian, French and Spanish newspapers dating from 1966 to 1992 and based on this material we shall attempt to shed some light on the character and validity of this latest "Duke of Anjou Durazzo's" titles.
		So far as the title of Prince Romanov-Dolgorouki is concerned we have seen how the French and Belgian branches of the Dolgorouki family have denied that Alexis is in any way related to it adding that his alleged father prince Nicolas Dolgorouki was executed by the Communists in Kiev on 26 January 1918.
