Well, in The Silmarillion heritage meant a lot. Fëanor's sons became masters of their own Noldo realms, as Turgon received the title of "High-king" when Fingolfin was slain (as well as Gil-galad).
The king of Greenwood in the Second Age was Oropher, father of Thranduil. After that, I'd expect it's like a normal monarchy.
