The law appearently doesn't even apply here. See democratic people's Republic of Korea, ruled by three generation of Royal kims, nor the Roman republic, whose last 400 years were ruled by a secession of monarchs, some hereditary, some not.

"The Roman Republic (Latin: Res publica Romana; Classical Latin: [ˈreːs ˈpuːb.lɪ.ka roːˈmaː.na]) was the period of ancient Roman civilization beginning with the overthrow of the Roman Kingdom, traditionally dated to 509 BC, and ending in 27 BC with the establishment of the Roman Empire."
