Apparently you guys really love a good unique government type in EU4, so we're back with a MATRIARCHY! Following the swell of interest from my "You can get a secret MILITANT ORDER OF NUNS in EU4... and it's INSANE!" video, I thought I'd look a little deeper so today, we're looking at EU4 nubia and attempting to hold off the Mamluks as we check out this unique eu4 nation!

worth emphasising that a matrilineal system refers to descent being understood through the female line, not only women being allowed to rule, so many matrilineal systems are still remarkably patriarchal and you may have, for instance in Nubia, inheritance being from a male ruler to their sister's son (as well as many other examples of very different systems)

The matrilineal system of inheritance in the Nubian states, or Kandake, was a system which gave the honour of birthing the next heir in line to the sister of the reigning king. The only thing I could find of Soba being the capital would be that it was, from what I understood, the largest and wealthiest city in the region, but was plundered and picked apart to build the city of Khartoum.

The queen mother, for that was her title, was a landholder, had her own court and would act as a secular regent. The name Candace comes from the Romans and Greeks thinking Kandake was a name and not a title.

I'm pretty sure you're using the word Matrilineal wrong... "Matrilineal society, also called matriliny, group adhering to a kinship system in which ancestral descent is traced through maternal instead of paternal lines (the latter being termed patrilineage or patriliny)." As far as I remember from studying Anthropology a long time ago that Matrilineal doesn't mean they rule the nation... its about the family name, who property goes to, surnames of the children etc... it doesn't mean that the women are the soldiers & rulers & don't do any of the washing up. There still is the possibility of a nation being matrilineal & still being sexist & favouring men...

Great video however Matrilineal and matriarchal are not the same XD. Historically Jews have a Matrilineal succession for passing on Jewish identity which means it passes through the mother's line. Picts in classic age Scotland also had a Matrilineal system where the legitimacy to rule came from the female line, even though men were the rulers. "lineal" meaning lineage. Matri-archy means female rule, where women hold exclusive political power. "archy" meaning rule. So Matrilineal and Matriarchy are female lineage and female rule.

@DovahFett 2 жыл бұрын

A lot of the time having a queen regnant is a sign that the country is not in a good place, because if it were it would have been able to find a male heir to take the throne. Usually means all the male heirs are dead or for some political or religious reason are unsuitable to rule. In any case they tend do to be a sign of chaos. Queens like Elizabeth and Victoria are relative outliers in that they were not just long lived competent queens, but competent English monarchs in general. There are a lot of terrible and mediocre monarchs that have sat that throne, including some women. It’s funny that you mention PUs because Victoria’s ascension broke the union between Britain and Hannover, as the title could not pass to a woman.

In the Nubian kingdoms the natural heir was the eldest son of the eldest sister of the former king, rather than the son of the former king. A young king would have his mother as a regent, and an adult king would have his mother and sister as his most important advisors (the sister bearing the title of kandake). If I remember rightly there are two examples historically of a kandake actually taking the throne for herself, but the rest of the time the ruler was always a male king. Matrilineality meant that the line of male rulers was traced via mothers, not that women themselves ruled most of the time.
