In ancient England a person could not have sex unless you had consent of the King (unless you were in the Royal Family). When anyone wanted to have a baby, they got consent of the King, the King gave them a placard that they hung on their door while they were having sex. The placard had F.*.*.*. (Fornication Under Consent of the King) on it. Now you know where that came from.

It's not a matter of right, it's a matter of strength.  Early rulers gained there position by pretty much beating the crap or killing anyone who opposed them.  This can be seen in the animal kingdom in pack animals.  The alpha male and alpha female are in charge because of there strength.

I think the convention goes that it's passed to the Progeny, so Wills comes after Elizabeth and Charlie.  As for the Edward VIII question, there are a couple of ways that could've played out.  There's some guy in Australia who could've inherited the throne by now instead of Elizabeth.

To long! :o) No it was 60 years. 1760 to 1820 when George IV became King. George IV - acted as Prince Regent from 1811 until 1820 because George III was absolutely and permanently deranged by then.
