Line of succession to the Luthori Throne

The line of succession to the Luthori Throne is a list of the people in line to succeed to the throne of the Holy Luthori Empire. The succession is regulated by various Constitutional Acts dating back to the birth of the Holy Luthori Empire, which limits it to the heirs of Richard the Lionheart, as determined by male-preference primogeniture and legitimate birth:
 * A person is always immediately followed in the succession by his or her own legitimate descendants (his or her "line") except for any legitimate descendants who already appear higher in the line of succession. Birth order and gender matter: older sons (and their lines) come before younger sons (and theirs); a person's sons (and their lines), irrespective of age, all come before his or her daughters (and their lines).
 * The monarch must enter into communion with The Luthori Church after accession.
 * A person born to parents who are not married to each other at the time of birth is not included in the line of succession. The subsequent marriage of the parents does not alter this.

Apart from identifying the next monarch, the line of succession is also used to select the Counsellors of State (and a regent if the need arises) under the provisions of the Regency Act.
