"You think the Emperor of Japan might be interested?"

Sorry, I don't know the man. Otto von Hapsburg just died so he's out. Like I said, there's some guy in England claiming to be the Czar, but of course, he's out of work too.

The only guy with a realistic crack at the job would be Simeon in Bulgaria; I think he has Czar as one of his titles and maybe he'll actually get the job. At least he has a government position. I don't know him, but one of my best friends, a Scottish Baron who is Orthodox, knows him quite well. Shall we "put out feelers"? :)

Not very fond of Bulgarians. They broke off for a while with Constantinople...kind of like their politics: you never know whom they will serve next. First they were allies with Serbs and Greeks chasing the Ottomans out of Europe, then they turn around and attack the Serbs. They served the Soviets so well, they used to refer to themselves as the "Soviet Republic of Bulgaria" and now they are super-dooper NATO allies (they couldn't wait for the opportunity to let NATO planes use Bulagria to bomb the Serbs) while the Greeks were out in the streets protesting every day the aggression. Tells you who is what in this world, doesn't it?

I suggest they change the canon by acclamation and get on with the business. Never mind the emperor.
