There are more possibilities for the first-born son of each marriage. It is impossible to establish if it was an original system that favours the brothers. The royal will is the rule that regulates successory order. Bearing in mind every antecedents, the Macedonian Assembly consolidated very simple rules for the alternation of the kings. The potential candidates receive a special education. The candidate who was called to be promoted, could be associated, with no title, into representatives, administratives and governmental functions.
