Line Of Succession To The Malaysian Throne
Malaysia practises an elective monarchy, so there is no distinct line of succession to the Malaysian thrones.

The deputy king does not automatically succeed the throne. The election is regulated by Article 32 of the Constitution of Malaysia. By convention, the Yang di-Pertuan Agong has been elected by the established order of seniority of the states. Malaysia throne State-State in Malaysia throne States' thrones are as follows.

Evolution Many kingdoms were officially elective historically, though the candidates were typically only from the family of the deceased monarch. Eventually, however, most elected monarchies introduced hereditary succession, guaranteeing that the title and office stayed within the royal family and specifying, more or less precisely, the order of succession. Today, almost all monarchies are hereditary mon ...
