    Some cultures embraced the concept of ultimogeniture, under the premise that the youngest child would be raised with the full benefit of wiser parents and inherit younger, but generally not too young.

    It’s apparently pretty effective when the culture encourages the youngest child to stay home as a caretaker for their parents, but in terms of kingdom inheritance can cause problems.
