I began "La Guerre de Cent Ans" by Georges Minois and "Fire & Blood" by . So one cool real history book about two dynasties fighting (Plantagenet and Capetian cadet branches) with explanations of the economic and demographic context of 14th century England and France, and the other being fake history of House Targaryen up to the Dance of the Dragons and the reign of Aegon III.
Funny how the 100 years war is also centered around whether a king can inherit through a foid's line (England) or through male-only line (Salic Law).

Counterpoint.
Isabel de Castilla
Elizabeth I
Elizaveta Petrovna
Christina of Sweden
They're all early modern though except for Isabel who was late medieval
But I guess in Medieval times it was less shaky through male only lines

You got paternity tests now but historically you'd be fricked if you weren't sure

Back in the day if the father acknowledged a kid as his own then it was his (though it didn't stop the Duke of York to claim that Henry VI son was a bastard as Henry VI was severely mentally ill). And it wasn't as if princesses and queens could roam free fricking anyone they wanted. They were always surrounded by an entourage, Catherine Howard was executed after being unmasked as an adulterer.

I'm not saying it happened all the time but it was 100% a possibility just like it is today

Absolutely, Paul I of Russia was probably a bastard for instance, or at least that was a rumor his own mother started.
Catherine II took over after deposing her husband, Tsar Peter III and she repeatedly cucked him before (he didn't mind). Her son hated her so she spread word he was a bastard and that her father was one of her lovers, supposedly to put him on his due place and as a way of saying (you'll inherit the throne because of me, not because of your "father" Peter III).
Paul I established the Salic Law on Russia after becoming emperor so foids could never reign again lmao.

Capetians managed fine with salic law. Just have s*x Imao

You actually have a good point. The Capetians lasted uninterrupted until 1789 without succession wars besides Angloid Kings claiming the throne because of supposed female inheritance. The cadet branches inherited the throne through male lines and no one but the Plantagenets and their Burgundian dogs ever questioned it.
Meanwhile England had so many usurpers as Kings starting with William the Conqueror himself, though he earned it through right of conquest. But others like Stephen, Henry IV, Edward IV, Richard III, Henry VII and William III were all straight up usurpers.
