Question about British Monarchy?

It doesn't matter who agrees with you or anyone else. When The Queen dies, her son Charles will be KIng. Then William will be King after that. Your friend is unbelievably ignorant.

When the Queen dies, Charles will become king. That's the fact. When Queen Elizabeth I died, her successor was a King, when Victoria died her successor was a king.

What your friend might be thinking is that during the reign of Elizabeth II (or any other queen) her husband is not styled as king but rather prince.

Also, your friend is wrong, that's not how it works in Game of Thrones. There they have Salic law and only men can inherit the throne (not that it prevents the female Danaerys from trying to claim it).

Your friend is nuts. If that were so, then there wouldn't have been a king after Queen Elizabeth I, (the next monarch was King James I), or after Queen Anne (the next monarch was King George I), or after Queen Victoria (the next monarch was her son, King Edward VII).

As Queen Elizabeth II has a son, Prince Charles, who is Prince of Wales (meaning he's heir to the throne), HE will be the next king of the UK.

Game of Thrones is a fictional series, based on a world that doesn't exist. Your friend knows nothing.

Charles WILL be king, but he might not be King Charles...chances are he will choose the name George, but it will be his choice.

Anybody who inherits the Crown will be a King or Queen.

"because apparently, that`s how it works on the show Game of Thrones."

It doesn't even work like that in Game of Thrones. At the last point of the TV show Joffrey was King. In the books, he will be succeeded by his younger brother Tommen, who is too young to actually rule, so Cersei takes up the reign as Queen Regent.

Queen Elizabeth II is Queen Regnant, not Regent. The difference is that a Regent is a temporary ruler, while the King or Queen Regnant is incapacitated or too young to rule.

In the early 19th Century, King George III became incapacitated, and his son and heir, Prince George became Prince Regent, that period is still known as The Regency.

So not only is your friend trying to apply fiction to fact, he also fails to understand the fiction.

The third type of Queen is Queen Consort, who is the wife of a ruling King.

There is never such a thing as a King Consort, because King is taken as a higher royal rank than Queen.

Of course we will have a King again. His name is Prince Charles, her son. If anything was to befaall Charles not being king, then His son Prince William will Become King. Your friend hasnt a clue about the royal line of succession

Your friend is wrong when the Queen dies Prince Charles will be king after him Prince William, after him Kate Middleton's unborn child!

Have him look up the Line of Succession. Charles is next, then William. 2 Kings in a row.

Your friend is an idiot. Not only is he completely wrong (as is obvious from 30 seconds of research about Prince Charles), but presuming the British monarchy behaves according to fantasy fiction is ridiculous. Does you friend search out Hogwarts as well? Is he concerned about vampires?

Until very recently, a monarch's eldest son would inherit the throne. These days it is the eldest child of a monarch.

The upshot of this is that, annoyingly, Prince Charles will ascend the throne when the Queen shuffles loose this mortal coil, and when he pops off the throne will be inherited by his eldest son.

Question: To whom would the throne pass if what your friend said were true? Camilla? AAAAAAAAAARGH!

You're right. Succession to the British throne is not gender discriminating.
