When rulers divided their territories among their sons, it often led to conflict and instability. This practice, known as "partible inheritance," fragmented political power and created rival factions within the ruling family. It frequently resulted in power struggles, wars of succession, and weakened central authority, making it easier for external powers or rival nobles to encroach upon the divided lands.
