Continued Sandehams

Very detailed post. A question on the first post.....

Joint property is the only logical argument in this whole thing..................
1) But if everyone starts asking for their share, won't the kingdom get smaller and smaller, isn't that why in England, only the eldest son inherits and the others get nothing? If you keep dividing, how could you rule?
Didn't the known Indian history ( not mythology) indicate the eldest son ruled rather than all? In fact, Bharatha is the only story where I heard "joint". Any other examples where the kingdom is treated as such?
