Out of curiosity, is there some reason why the crown has been passed from brother to brother, instead of from father to son? EDIT: The new king is already 79, so my best guess is that we're going to have to pretend to mourn him in the next few years, too. Why not pick someone who isn't already on death's door?

Those words for the types of succession are fine. It very precisely describes what's going on, it's not pretentious, and if you don't know what they mean (as I didn't), you can simply look them up. Now, for my next question: what will happen when the last of Ibn Saud's sons dies? Does it go to a son of the current king, or a son of the eldest son of Ibn Saud? Does this model of succession tend to be more or less successful if the originator of the line isn't a gently caress-machine with 25 wives (or knows how to use a loving condom)?
