What does principle of primogeniture refer to?
Primogeniture means only the oldest son (or oldest child) can inherit the entire property. The opposite of primogeniture is partible inheritance, in which more than one son (or child) can inherit parts of the property. A partible inheritance meant that the property was divided. In the case of a kingdom, that means that two kingdoms might exist where there had been one. Charlemagne's empire was divided among his grandsons in this way, giving rise to several kingdoms and a much weakened empire. Adopting primogeniture meant that kingdoms could be consolidated and enlarged over time. The descendants of Charlemagne adopted it it France, and this allowed France to continue as a nation to this day. For counties and smaller properties, the same holds true. If a count were to divide his county among a number of sons, it would produce a very much smaller inheritance for each, allowing the family to lose its base. By adopting primogeniture, the county remains a county. Younger sons who did not inherit often became knights and took smaller manorial estates.
