Casorian Imperial Family

The Casorian Imperial Family was a term used within the laws of the Casorian Empire which clearly set out the legality and authority of positions within the Imperial household. The laws protect the positions of Emperor, Empress-Consort, Empress-Regnant, Emperor-Consort, Prince-Consort, Prince, Princess, Princess Superior and Dowager-Empress/Emperor.

The laws also define the title of prince and princess as, "the child of the sovereign or grandchild of the reigning sovereign." Strictly speaking if a prince produces an heir by the time his brother has ascended the throne, that child is not entitled to Imperial grace.

Casorian Imperial dynasts are also forbidden to carry their dynastyic name past two direct generations, meaning that a great-grand child of any reigning monarch will adopt a cadet name, see Dynasties which includes a section on cadet branches.
