Another kind of quiz this time. This is probably way too easy - and once you start unravelling the clues, one answer will lead on the next...
Find the correct people, titles and years:
I (1) was the head of a sovereign state. During my reign, my own father-in-law (2) became my “superior”, even though technically I remained a sovereign. I died in the same year (3) as my first cousin (4), who was a Queen. My first predecessor on my throne was my grandfather (5) - who, curiously, was also my great-great-grandfather. His heir (6), who was my uncle as well as my great-grandfather, died in an accident.
My grandmother (7) was also my first cousin. She died the year I was born (8). My daughter (9) held the same position (10) as her great-grandmother (7 above) had once held.
Another person who died in the same year as me and my cousin (4 above) was the Head of State (11) of my mother’s (12) native country. His son (13) was my son-in-law. My son-in-law’s first cousin (14) became my daughter-in-law.
