But in real life the survival of the fittest system will not last three generations, because the empire itself will be quickly weaken by constant in-fighting or civil war. In Chinese history that kind of in-fighting between prince usually occurs between the second generations, because many of them are generals of rebels leaded by their father. If things don't settle down after the 2nd emperor , that dynasty will not last.
Say what if the Britannia emperor suddenly dies and Schneizel the 2nd Prince claim the throne. Do you expect Cornelia to just bow or lead her loyal knights for some Knightmare vs Knightmare action? Britannia will be torn apart. Well that may be exactly what Lelouch wants.
