150 YEARS OF THE KARENINA LAW

[Toffee 2843]

 

ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY YEARS ON

 

12th OF JOMA AG UMUND, 564 E.S.

 

 

 

ㅤIN 409 E.S., THE COUNCIL OF KOENAS EMMA OF JEROVITZ gathered for what was, by all accounts, an extraordinary meeting. It was at this meeting that they formed the Karenina Accord, a push to attain absolute primogeniture throughout the Kingdom; the first child, regardless of gender, would be able to inherit the titles of their forebears.

 

Spearheaded by Koenas Emma, the Karenina Accord gained much traction and came to be supported by many prominent noble and political figures of the time, not least being the Lord Palatine Eirik Baruch, who was famously called ‘Lacksons’ for his brood of five daughters. The Karenina Accord became the Karenina Law in 414 E.S., granting daughters of noble Houses the same rights of inheritance as sons. Many years later, in 481 E.S., the Karenina Edict granted this same right of equal primogeniture to the children of the mainline Royal Family.
