A Mad Emperor am I?

The irony of this quiz result is that I was going to use this guy in my last King of the Blogs defense, to answer the challenge post about who I would base my rule on. Unfortunately, I forgot the guy's name until two days later when my wife mentioned him. Yes, we are both history geeks, so we DO have conversations like that all the time.

I'm Joshua Abraham Norton, the first and only Emperor of the United States of America!
Which Historical Lunatic Are You?
From the fecund loins of Rum and Monkey.
This guy actually declared himself Emperor of the United States. From what I've been able to gather, he was in reality pretty harmless, and left the folks in Washington alone. The people who lived near him humored him, and he didn't really give anyone any trouble, but he never really did much of anything, either.
