The House of Vinandy is a Batavian royal family, originally from Vinandy. Monarchs from Amokolia, Arcadia, Batavia and Beneluccas originated from the family.

Prima diviso

Prima divisio des Vinandy is the house treaty of the House of Vinandy, in which the distribution of inheritances is regulated. This first distribution of the inheritances was drawn up by Frederik des Vinandy and has since been supplemented with annexes to the transfer of inheritances.

Prior to this house treaty, there was a strict regime of birth right (primogeniture), but other children often received gifts. Frederik des Vinandy wanted to prevent the many inheritances from leading to conflicts, such as succession wars.

The house treaty

Today Frederik des Vinandy calls together his three sons to distribute all the possessions of the House des Vinandy. This division must retain the possessions, both in land and titles, for the family and provide foundation for later inheritance law.

Sons of the same house should live in peace and goodness.

To Arkadius Leopold, my eldest son, is assigned the claim to the throne of Batavia, the county of Vinandy and all possessions north of the Great Western Sea and south of the wall of Manuel.

Arkadius Hendrik, my second son, has been assigned the Duchy of Gascony and all possessions north of Manuel's wall.

To Gustavus Maurits, my youngest son, is assigned the claim to the throne of Arcadia and all possessions south of the Great Western Sea.

Insofar as the inheritance is passed on to children, this division applies to the sons. In the case of daughters, the own daughter is entitled to the assigned inheritance, but the inheritance does not transfer to her sons or daughters. The inheritance is then transferred to a male heir of the House des Vinandy.

All in-laws, who bring an inheritance in the marriage, will be admitted to the House des Vinandy, insofar as there are no hereditary conditions.

Transfer of possessions, such as land and titles, takes place under the unanimous consent of the tribal chiefs, starting with my three sons.

This division was established by Frederik des Vinandy in the year 1519 at Chateau des Vinandy, in the presence of his three sons, on the basis of Justice and Faith.

Former assets

Due to political unrest and area losses, some assets have been lost, while others have been sold:

  • Rhuymsight Palace in Ingelburg, acquired in 1544 AN by King Arkadius II des Vinandy, in exchange for setting up Château des Vinandy as a museum. The palace was returned when the Château des Vinandy came back into the hands of the family.
  • Château de Naval in Naval. Since the loss of Batavian-Cibola no longer in possession.
  • Huys te Vredebregt in 's Koningenwaarde, since the revival of Batavia in 1661 AN, this palace has been used as the residence of the Stadholder, nowadays the official residence of the Prime Minister.
