Line Of Succession To The Swedish Throne

In 1980 Sweden adopted full cognatic primogeniture, meaning that the eldest descendants of the monarch, regardless of gender, takes precedence, with children taking precedence over grandchildren. Before that Sweden had had a male primogeniture, meaning that in all cases males would take precedence, but females would not be excluded entirely. See also: Order of succession
