Grandb> Duchy ofb> Lithuania - encyclopedia article about Grandb> Duchy ofb> Lithuania.

The chancery languages ofb> the Grandb> Duchy ofb> Lithuania was Ruthenian (reffered to as Old Belarusian by Belarusians and as Chancery Slavic by Lithuanians) and Latin.
, the Grandb> Duchy ofb> Lithuania was a sovereign State ofb> Confederation
The Grandb> Duchy ofb> Lithuania retained many rights in that confederation (including separate government, treasury and army) until the May Constitution ofb> Poland was passed in 1791.

Mariab> Vladimirovnab> ofb> Russia

Mariab> Vladimirovnab> ofb> Russia, Mariab> Wladimirovna Romanov (&;) (born December 23, 1953) has claimed to be the Head ofb> the Imperial Family ofb> Russia and Titular Empress and Autocrat ofb> all the Russias since 1992.
The Romanov Family Association claims Mariab> as a member under the name Princess Mariab> Vladimirovnab> ofb> Russia but she rejects that name and the membership.
Accordingly, when her father died in 1992, Mariab> claimed to succeed as the Head ofb> the Imperial Family ofb> Russia.

THE RUSSIAN SUCCESSION

Following the death ofb> Prince Vassili ofb> Russia, the last male Russian dynast other than Wladimir himself, Mariab> was declared heiress to the throne by virtue ofb> the succession law under which the Crown would pass to the nearest female dynast to the last male ofb> the House.
Emperor Nicholas II had had to determine whether the marriage ofb> two Grandb> Dukes to Princesses ofb> the tiny state ofb> Montenegro could be considered equal, since, unlike the Bagrations, this family had not been reigning at the time Paul's laws were promulgated.
Grandb> Duke Wladimir asserted his claim to the Headship ofb> the Imperial House as the primogeniture male heir ofb> Alexander II ofb> Russia.

The Succession Question

Furthermore, criticism has been often levelled whether justly or not at the Grandb> Duke Kirill with regard to his breaking the oath ofb> allegiance to the Emperor Nicholas II in 1917 and his assumption ofb> the imperial title in 1924 which was against the express wishes ofb> the Dowager Empress Mariab> Feodorovna.
In order to avoid the Austrian example where all members ofb> the Imperial House were designated Archdukes, in Russia only sons and daughters or grandsons and granddaughters (in the male line) ofb> a reigning Emperor were permitted to the rank ofb> Grandb> Duke or Grandb> Duchessb> and the qualification ofb> Imperial Highness.
In accordance with the laws ofb> succession to the Imperial House ofb> Russia the undisputed head ofb> the family is His Highness Prince Nicholas Romanovich, son ofb> the late Prince Roman Petrovich and Grandson ofb> the Grandb> Duke Peter Nikolaievich.

Monarchy's Heirs Inherit Family Feud

On one side ofb> the split stands Grandb> Duchessb> Leonida Georgiyevna, 84, and her daughter Grandb> Duchessb> Mariab> Vladimirovnab>, 45, an Oxford graduate who lives in Madrid with her son, Prince Georgy Hohenzollern-Romanov, 17.
Nikolai's supporters include the eminent intellectual Dmitry Likhachov, who wrote a letter to President Boris Yeltsin in 1997 condemning the attempts ofb> Mariab> Vladimirovnab> to secure official status for her side ofb> the family, which would have allowed them to live in Russia and take part in state events on a formal level.
Mariab> Vladimirovnab> has openly courted the press, and with some success: She has often been referred to by Western journalists as the most senior member ofb> the Romanov family, and Georgy has been mentioned as the most commonly recognized heir to the throne.

On Specific Issues Within Monarchism

It is certainly significant that Mariab> Vladimirovnab> and her son are actively interested in a restoration ofb> the Russian monarchy, whereas Nicholas Romanovich is a republican and has no desire to be tsar, insisting only that he is the head ofb> the family.
This is because the laws ofb> the Russian Imperial family stipulate that only persons born ofb> equal marriages (that is, a Romanov father and a mother ofb> royal birth) are dynasts.
Neither does Paul Ilyinsky, former mayor ofb> Palm Beach, Florida, who if one disregards the equal marriage requirement would be the male primogeniture heir ofb> Nicholas II.
