And upon what the execution order depends?

Why my NUnit tests execute in different order than they are listed?
And upon what the execution order depends?
It depends on how the runner arranges them after reflecting on your test assembly. Each runner may do this differently.
For instance, Reshaper’s runner runs alphabetically.
But the salient issue here is that NUnit tests should not have sequential stipulations or dependencies.
If you need to have tests depend on other tests, use MbUnit. This is an example of fixture dependency using the DependsOnAttribute.
