Abdication : Nicholas I of Russia benefited from his elder brother Constantine's abdication.
Didn't a similar thing happen later on, after the Russian revolution of 1917? Czar Nicholas II abdicated the imperial throne not only for himself but also, his son, the Czarevich Alexis. As it was, his only surviving brother (Michael) nominally became the lastl emperor of Russia -- although he never wanted the throne.
