  1. dunno, but...

    longest reigning monarch in the world is the King of Thailand!


  2. Quite a number of Kings were born Kings. or Queens. or Emperors

    However family ties being what they are, very few of them ever saw their first birthday

  3. LOL he would have to be alive!  Perhaps the question is who is or was the youngest male to ever become a reigning king.

    best of luck to you!

  4. The King of Toro I think (Ugandan Kingdom)....he's less than 10 I think.

  5. i am but  aim not six months

  6. Oyo Nyimba Kabamba Iguru Rukidi IV, King Oyo, is the current reigning Omukama of Toro, in Uganda. He was born on 16th April 1992 to King Patrick David Mathew Kaboyo Olimi III and Queen Best Kemigisa Kaboyo. Three and half years later in 1995, Oyo ascended the throne and succeeded his father to become the 12th ruler of the 180 year old Kingdom of Toro. He is currently the youngest ruling monarch and went down in the Guinness Book of records, taking the place of King Mswati of Swaziland who was crowned at 18 years of age.

    Oyo Nyimba is referred to as the Omukama which means King and Rukirabasaija, the greatest of men. Although he is considered the sovereign leader of the Batooro, Oyo Nyimba's power is limited to cultural duties. To help him rule, King Oyo has three regents charged with grooming and overseeing his growth into the role of King. The regents handle the affairs of the Kingdom until Oyo turns 18. At the time of his coronation, the three regents included his mother, Queen Best, Princess Elizabeth Bagaaya, his Aunt and Godmother and President Yoweri Museveni.

  7. I thought it was King Louis the 14th of France.

  8. Not sure about globally but in the UK it was Henry VI of England, who became king at nine months old.

    The youngest monarch was Mary Queen of Scots, who became queen at six days old.
