With parents as a child. |
Nikolai II 's daughters, Mariya Women's and Anasta Siya Women's Gong , were mentioned, but in 1918, the marriage was failed when all the Russian royal family were executed. Later, he was engaged in 1922 with Greek and Denmark's Olga, but was married and married in 1935 with Princess Swedish , the daughter of Gustav VI, Adolf . Between the two, three daughters were born, including Margrete II , Benedict, and Anemari .
Since he had no sons, he revised the constitution through a referendum in 1953, abolishing the Salica Act and appointing his eldest daughter , Margrethe II , as his successor. Of course, there was opposition from his younger brother, Prince Knud, but he somehow managed to suppress it.[1] Later, Knud's two sons both married noble families and either had no children (Count Ingolf) or only had three daughters (Count Christian), so there is no significant difference now.
And at this time, until the law of succession was changed, all male descendants of Christian IX were entitled to succession, so men of the Glücksburg dynasty in the Kingdom of Norway and the Kingdom of Greece were also eligible to succeed, but from this time on, the right of succession was granted only to the descendants of Christian X , and the Glücksburg royal family from Norway and Greece were excluded from the line of succession to the Danish throne. In any case, if other royal families apply the revised succession law, their succession rankings will be pushed down to a few tens of ranks.[2] Even if the number of successors is slightly reduced, it does not cause any major problems.

4. digression
- It is said that he was a Lego fanatic. Her hobby is Lego building, and she is said to have really liked the new 12-volt train (it is said to have a sound sensor and can be controlled with a whistle) that she received as a birthday present.
- He is the first king in the history of the Danish royal family to inherit the blood of the Romanov dynasty , the Russian imperial family .[6]

[1] Prince Knud and Princess Caroline Mathilde were granted the title of Hereditary Prince/Queen (Danish: Arveprins / Arveprinsesse) by Parliament, and their pensions were also maintained. The couple's eldest son, Count Ingolf, is also receiving a pension to this day as compensation for being pushed out of the throne, even though he married a noble woman. (It was not the second son, Count Christian, and it was not the eldest daughter, Princess Elizabeth, who maintained her royal status.) Count Ingolf's reminiscences According to the report, after the law of succession was changed and during Prince Knud's lifetime, Frederick IX and the Knud brothers met only as husband and wife at official events and had little personal interaction, so Ingolf also had a close relationship with his cousins, Margrethe , Benedict, and Annemarie . It is said that he suffered from burns.[2] Based on the pre-revision standard, the succession order of the Norwegian royal family rises considerably. As of 1953, when the succession law was revised, the Norwegian King Haakon VII (Frederik IX's uncle) was fourth in the line of succession, and Christian X's male descendant is currently scheduled to be cut off, so if the succession law was maintained The Norwegian royal family could have been king of Denmark.[3] Frederick X , Prince Joachim[4] Unlike her younger sister, Annemarie , Princess Benedict did not give up her right to succession after marrying her husband from the Standesheir family, so she is still at the end of the line of succession, but her children grew up in Germany, so they do not have any right to succeed .[5] Crown Prince Pavlos of Greece , etc. When Anne Marie married Constantine II, she renounced herself and her descendants' rights to succeed, so they have no right to succeed to the Danish throne.[6] This is because his maternal grandmother , Grand Duchess Anastasia Mikhailovna, was the biological granddaughter of Nicholas I , and his maternal grandfather , Frederick Franz III , was the great-grandson of Yelena Pavlovna, the second daughter of Pavel I. In addition to Frederick, kings who inherited the blood of the Romanov dynasty include King Constantine I of Greece, King Gustaf VI Adolf of Sweden , King Willem III of the Netherlands, King Charles III of England , and King Felipe VI of Spain .
