Get the Emperor Fetusmug. Emperor Norton (1818-1880) was a resident of San Francisco and self proclaimed Emperor of the United States and later on was the Protector of Mexico.
Born in England in 1818, Norton would spend most of his early years in South Africa. He would then move to San Francisco in late 1849. Norton then became a trader and real estate speculator, and was also one of the wealthier residents in the city. However, he became destitute when he attempted to corner the rice market.
Soon after, Norton decided to proclaim himself Emperor of the United States. He issued various edicts which included dissolving the US Congress, building a bridge in San Francisco, and creating a “League of Nations”.
Soon, people treated Emperor Norton as if he were an actual emperor. They would formally greet him, accept his own imperial currency, and even the Police would salute him.
In fact, the King of Hawaii, Kamehameha V, would recognize Emperor Norton as the sole ruler of the United States.
Emperor Norton was also considered a very progressive man, attempting to peacefully stop an Anti-Chinese riot. He was also very friendly by those who met him.
Eventually, Emperor Norton would pass away on January 8th, 1880. His Funeral was paid for by the Pacific Club, and 10,000 people showed up to pay their respects.

"… he had shed no blood; robbed no one; and despoiled no country; which is more than can be said of his fellows in that line".

Get the Emperoringmug. Far above the "Normies" in the clouds, lies the kingdom of the Meme Lords, enjoying their dank memes soaring through the skies. Beyond that, unknown to not just the normies, unknown to even the Meme Lords... Folded around their current Euclidean space is the home of the Meme Emperors.
Kings, Queens, Creators, and Rulers of the Meme format the great Richard Dawkins coined in his 1976 book "The Selfish Gene" as an attempt to explain how aspects of culture replicate, mutate, and evolve (memetics). These Emperors communicate via meme (Unless required due to policy, the person who views the meme does not understand memes, or it will harm others).
Meme Emperors can give you a full detailed history of memes, and their evolution through time and have existing models for future predictions of the possible evolutions of the meme format.
