What did the new Act of Succession (tronfølgeloven) of 1953 mean?
In the exam (Danish)
Hvad betød den nye tronfølgelov fra 1953?
- aA princess could now inherit the throne if she had no brothersEn prinsesse kunne nu arve tronen, hvis hun ikke havde brødreCorrect answer
- bDenmark would no longer have a king or queenDanmark skulle ikke længere have en konge eller dronning
- cThe people would now choose the new king in an electionFolket skulle nu vælge den nye konge ved et valg
Why?
Before 1953 only men could inherit the throne. With this law a daughter could inherit if the king had no sons, and that is why Margrethe II could become queen in 1972. Since 2009 the eldest child inherits, whether a boy or a girl.
Translated with AI. In the exam the question is in Danish, as shown above.
