Its actually a bigger issue in Japan, the Emperor there is a line for 1400 years. The son of the Emperor has 2 daughters and no male heir
That’s not technically correct. The Emperor’s *first* son has two daughters. His second son, however, has two daughters and a son.
For a long time, succession was a looming problem in Japan, as no males were born into the royal family in over 40 years.For a time, they were considering changing the rules. However, that became moot when Prince Akishino (the Emperor’s second son) had a baby boy (Hisahito) in 2006.
Eventually, the throne will go from Akihito (the current Emperor) to his first son (Nurahito) and then to his second son and then his grandson.
