Haakon, Crown Prince of Norway ((:ˈhoːkʊn); born 20 July 1973), with the full name ''Haakon Magnus'', is the heir apparent to the Throne of Norway and the son of the reigning King, Harald V. He is also a member of the House of Glücksburg. The Crown Prince is married to Mette-Marit, Crown Princess of Norway, with whom he has two children. He has an older sister, Princess Märtha Louise. In accordance with Norway's agnatic primogeniture succession, Haakon became Crown Prince when his father ascended the throne in 1991. He is expected to succeed to the throne as Haakon VIII. == Family and early life == On birth he was named Prince Haakon Magnus, and it was stressed in the announcement that he would go by the name Haakon. Haakon's godparents are King Olaf V of Norway, Princess Astrid of Norway, Prince Carl Bernadotte, King Carl XVI Gustaf of Sweden, Queen Margrethe II of Denmark, and Anne, Princess Royal of the United Kingdom. He is a third cousin of Charles, Prince of Wales, heir apparent of the United Kingdom. As a descendant of King Edward VII of the United Kingdom, Haakon is also eligible to succeed to the thrones of the sixteen Commonwealth realms. Haakon has one sibling, Princess Märtha Louise (born 1971). In 1990, the Norwegian constitution was altered, granting absolute primogeniture to the Norwegian throne, meaning that the eldest child, regardless of gender, takes precedence in the line of succession. This was not, however, done retroactively (as, for example, Sweden had done in 1980), meaning that Haakon continues to take precedence over his older sister. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Haakon, Crown Prince of Norway」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
