The house, member by member
Oldest first, where a date is recorded.
What this means
People whose own records place them in this house. Membership of a house is a family fact. It is not a religious affiliation and not a right to any office. “Child of” appears where a member’s recorded parent is also in the house — a documented human family, the same kind of claim as membership, and nothing more.

Succession
Offices held in the house
The members in each office, in order — a selection from the office’s whole line.
Consort of Serbia
- 3 holders
- 3 undated
What this means
Who held an office after whom. Not parentage, not discipleship, and not universally recognised — offices are contested.
Does not imply recognition by every tradition · an uncontested claim · parentage · discipleship · an explanation of why the succession happened
Holding an office after someone says nothing about being related to them or taught by them. Where a line is also a family, both are on the holders’ own pages as separate sections.
A gap is a vacancy, an interregnum or a hole in the record; an overlap is rival claims or an office held by more than one at once. The records do not say which, so neither is resolved here. A gap shorter than two years sits inside the precision of year-dated records and is not marked. Only this house’s members are shown, so a gap between two of them may be a holder from outside it.
Why a succession happened is a historical argument. Where sources make one, it belongs in a reviewed connection with its citations — not in this order, and not in a predecessor field.
Recognition is never universal. Where a card names no recognising body, none is recorded — which is not the same as none.
Imported from Wikidata unless a card says otherwise. Nothing here has been read by an editor.

Chronology is not a full explanation
Why one member followed another takes evidence beyond the order of their dates. That both belonged to the house is not, on its own, that evidence.
Religious context · a separate claim
Affiliation
Counted from the members’ own statements — never the religion of anyone the house ruled.
What this means
Assembled from the members’ own statements, and counted. What a person was affiliated with, what a ruler paid for, what a state did and what a population practised are four separate kinds of claim. Only the first two are in the data at all, and they are kept apart here.

An affiliation recorded by a third party, often for one period of a life. It is not the religion of anyone this house ruled.
Connections
How House of Obrenović connects
Grouped by the kind of relationship, because a successor is not a son and a shared symbol is not an influence.
Transmission 1
What this means
Teaching passed from one person to another. Not biological ancestry and not automatic institutional succession.
Does not imply that the tradition began fully formed · that later adherents accept the attribution
