The best description of the evolution of the traditions of inheritance in Europe from the early medieval period is:
At first land was divided between all sons and then it was given only to the first-born son.
This reflects the shift from more egalitarian inheritance practices to primogeniture, where the first-born son inherited the bulk of the family estate, often leading to the concentration of land and power.
