This photo of Jordan’s Prince Hussein, eldest son of King Abdullah II, was taken at a ceremony in Amman on June 9, 2009 marking the 10th anniversary of his father’s accession to the throne. The prince turned 15 last month. Yesterday by royal decree he was named crown prince, which means he is the designated heir to the throne. (Photo: KHALIL MAZRAAWI/AFP/Getty Images)

    It looks like Jordan is moving closer to primogeniture.

    Hmmm….he hasn’t done anything yet worth identifying how well he’ll be as a leader. Though i have to wonder if several years ago when the king/queen removed hussein as heir in preparation for this moment? primogeniture for sure.
