Born in Amman, the eldest son of Crown Prince Talal, he was enthroned at seventeen after his father's deposition for illness, ruling under a regency until his majority. Under him Jordan fought wars with Israel and lost the West Bank in 1967, expelled Palestinian fighters in Black September 1970, renounced its claim to the West Bank in 1988 and restored elections in 1989; his mediation in the region made his funeral one of the largest gatherings of world leaders of its era.",

This is the structured-only configuration of the royal block (waves 83–86): one structured family cannot meet the two-independent-source bar.

Existence checked both directions before writing: name fragments in English, Arabic and Urdu scripts across data/person/, the QID grepped across all of data/person/, biographical comparison, and record provenances — no prior record of the man existed; ali-bin-hussein-al-hashimi on file is his great-uncle, a different man. SUCCESSION VERIFIED against the articles, as the run brief required: parliament deposed his father Talal for illness and Hussein acceded on 11 August 1952, a regency council serving until his majority on 2 May 1953 — a regency is not an interim reign, and no other holder intervened. His father has no museum record, so no successor_of or child_of edge can be written. His successor Abdullah II has a record, but the successor_of edge belongs in the successor's own record and is not written from here. No Jordanian Hashemite group entity exists (banu-hashim is the wider clan and hashemite-dynasty-iraq is the Iraqi branch), so no member_of edge is written.",
