Order of the Crown of Stuart

[sathor]

recognize Mary II and Anne as de facto monarchs but not as de jure sovereigns, hence their exclusion from the line of succession in the gallery on their website.

Wow, I wonder just how many people beyond us even know the difference between those two things. (de facto and de jure) Its not something that comes up that often.

The Jacobites, of course, refuse to recognize the validity of the Act of Settlement and base their thesis on the principles of "de jure et sanguines".

My personal take on all of this is:
PRACTICE SAFE GOVERNMENT, USE A KINGDOM

That is one of funniest things I have read in a long time - and so true.
