Answer:

The law of primogentiture.

Explanation:

This ancient law, inherited from Medieval England, states that a parent´s estate will be inherited by the oldest son of a family.

What is a standing army
liq [111]

Answer:

A standing army, unlike a reserve army, is a permanent, often professional, army. It is composed of full-time soldiers (who may be either career soldiers or conscripts) and is not disbanded during times of peace. It differs from army reserves, who are enrolled for the long term, but activated only during wars or natural disasters, and temporary armies, which are raised from the civilian population only during a war or threat of war and disbanded once the war or threat is over. The term dates from approximately 1600, although the phenomenon it describes is much older
