The line of succession to the former Montenegrin throne is an ordered list of those eligible to succeed to the headship of the Royal House of Montenegro, grand mastership of the dynastic orders and ascend the throne of Montenegro in the event the monarchy is restored. The native monarchy of Montenegro was deposed in 1918 but a royal government in exile retained international recognition until 1922.

The current head of the royal house is Nicholas II Petrović-Njegoš, Crown Prince of Montenegro. Since 2011 the head of the royal house has an official role in Montenegro.

History

On 13 November 1918 the King of Montenegro, Nicholas I, was deposed by the Podgorica Assembly which voted to unite Montenegro with the Kingdom of Serbia under his son-in-law King Peter I of the House of Karađorđević.[1] King Nicholas never recognised the union and maintained an internationally recognised government in exile. Upon the death of King Nicholas in 1921 he was succeeded by his son Crown Prince Danilo who abdicated as king a week later in favour of the next in line, his nephew Michael who reigned as a King-in-exile under the regency of his grandmother Queen Milena. On 13 July 1922 the Conference of Ambassadors at Paris gave international recognition to the union of Serbia and Montenegro.[1]

Crown Prince Nicholas, the current head of the house, is the only son of Michael. In 2011 Montenegro recognised an official role in Montenegro for the royal house in order to promote the Montenegrin identity, culture and traditions through cultural, humanitarian and other non-political activities.

Law of succession

Membership of the royal house is limited to the male line descendants of the grandfather of King Nicholas. The succession is determined by Article 19 of the 1905 Constitution of the Principality of Montenegro which states that “The male descendants are called to the succession by order of primogeniture as it is prescribed by the special statute of family on the succession to the throne.”.[2]

In 2011 the Montenegrin government passed a law recognising the male line descendants of King Nicholas and their wives as the members of the Petrović-Njegoš dynasty (Article 2). The law appoints the eldest male heir, currently Crown Prince Nicholas, as the representative of the dynasty (Article 5). It also affirms the House law of the dynasty by defining the succession to the headship of the dynasty as being passed down through the “male heir of the oldest male heir” (Article 5).[3]

The line of succession to the Ethiopian throne is described in the first section of the 1955 Revised Constitution of Ethiopia. Traditionally the succession was limited to descendants of Makeda Queen of Sheba and King Solomon of the Israelites. The 1931 and 1955 Constitutions formally established a legal order of succession that placed the Imperial throne in the reigning Shewan branch of the Imperial dynasty, giving precedence to the line of Emperor Haile Selassie I.
In brief, the title of Emperor may pass only through male descendants of Haile Selassie I, through the oldest male line before the younger. Other qualifications are that they be born in lawful wedlock, be an Orthodox Christian, and not be married to a foreigner or against consent of the Imperial Family.
In the event that there were no qualifying male descendants of Haile Selassie, the nearest male relative who is descended from Sahle Selassie, King of Shewa, would then be heir. According to most interpretations this would place the throne in line of Emperor Haile Selassie’s brother Dejazmatch Yilma Makonnen, followed by the family of his cousin Ras Imiru Haile Selassie.
In March 1975, the monarchy was abolished by the Derg, the military junta that had forcibly taken over during a Communist revolution. The Derg by its own authority abolished all royal and noble titles by proclamation at that time. The current Constitution of the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia makes no provisions for a monarchy. The Crown Council of Ethiopia considers Crown Prince Zera Yacob Amha Selassie to be Head of the Imperial House. Although the current Ethiopian government regards members of the Imperial family as private citizens, they do recognize their royal and noble titles as a matter of courtesy, effectively rescinding the abolition of those titles by Derg regime. Foreign royal courts have continued to accord members of the Ethiopian Imperial family their titles throughout the period following the fall of the Ethiopian monarchy in 1974.

Line of succession

According to the 1955 orders of succession and with the assent of the Imperial Crown Council, the current order of succession among the living male descendants of Haile Selassie I is as follows:
Crown Prince Zera Yacob b. 1953 (son of Amha Selassie I, grandson of Haile Selassie I)

  1. Prince Paul Wossen Seged Makonnen, 2nd Duke of Harrar b. 1947 (grandson of Haile Selassie I)
  2. Prince Mikael Amde Yesus Makonnen b. 1950 (grandson of Haile Selassie I)
  3. Prince Yokshan Dawit Makonnen b. 1978 (great-grandson of Haile Selassie I)
  4. Prince Joel Dawit Makonnen b. 1982 (great-grandson of Haile Selassie I)
  5. Prince Philip Tafari Makonnen b. 1954 (grandson of Haile Selassie I)
  6. Prince Mikael Tafari Makonnen b.1980 son of Prince Phillip Makonnen (great-grandson of Haile Selassie l)
  7. Prince Nahshon Tafari Gizaw Makonnen b.1982 son of Prince Phillip Makonnen (great-grandson of Haile Selassie l)
  8. Prince David Tafari Makonnen b.1992 son of Prince Philip Makonnen (great-grandson of Haile Selassie I)
  9. Prince Isaiah Tafari Makonnen b.1998 son of Prince Philip Makonnen (great-grandson of Haile Selassie I)
  10. Prince Baeda Maryam Makonnen b. 1957 (grandson of Haile Selassie I)
  11. Prince Ermias Sahle Selassie b. 1960 (grandson of Haile Selassie I)
  12. Prince Christian Sahle Selassie Ermias b. 1992 (great-grandson of Haile Selassie I)
  13. Prince Rufael Fiseha Tsieon Ermias b. 1992 (great-grandson of Haile Selassie I)
