Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. He never sat on a throne. He never signed a single law. He never drew a single breath. And yet for four hundred years, popes negotiated with him, kings searched entire continents for him, and armies marched in his name. His name was Prester John. He did not exist. Someone invented him, and the… invention changed the map of the world. Emperors Who Never Existed is the true story of the phantom kings, forged monarchs, and manufactured emperors who have shaped human history from the Crusades to the age of artificial intelligence. A Russian peasant claimed to be a murdered prince and very nearly took the throne of an empire. A French vagabond invented an entire Asian island, its alphabet, its gods, and its emperor, and fooled the Royal Society of London. A bankrupt merchant declared himself Emperor of the United States, and an entire city fell in love with him. A European king invented a benevolent sovereign persona to disguise one of the deadliest colonial regimes in history. And in 2022, a fabricated video of a real president, appearing to surrender a real war, spread across the world in minutes. These are not myths from the edge of history. They are case studies in how power is built, how belief is engineered, and how a single well placed lie can move armies, empty treasuries, and rewrite the fate of nations. Historian Portia Vantrell draws on chronicles, court records, forged letters, and declassified reports to answer the question every reader will carry into the next election, the next headline, the next viral video: When a king speaks, how do you know he is real? This is narrative history written to be devoured, not studied. Every chapter reads like a thriller because every chapter, in its own moment, was exactly that. Meet the bishop who accidentally launched a four century manhunt for a king who never lived. Meet the impostor who fooled Europe's sharpest minds with an alphabet he made up overnight. Meet the mob that crowned a bankrupt beggar emperor out of pure civic affection, and the propaganda machine that still manufactures a founding myth for a living dynasty today. By the final page, you will never read a headline, watch a broadcast, or hear a claim to authority the same way again. The throne is real. The crown is real.The man wearing it may not be. Read the book that unravels seven centuries of invented kings, and the very real men who profited from every single one of them. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.
