another false prince...

for modest entertainment, and a major selection of false Orders, see:

Patrick Cracroft-Brennan...

Well he's obviously not serious about his pretensions, otherwise he'd
have it all in English so as to appeal to the American market.....

Thanks Guy.
Sheesh, definitely a case of him providing too much information... we even
know what computer ar cade games he likes playing and that he visited Prague
four times for a total of 24 days and had a shell collection as a child as
well as a fabulous collection of certificates and diplomas whose value may
approximate that of the paper they are printed on.
When it comes to orders, etc. a good chuckle nonetheless.
Among the motley assortment of self-styled and completely invented orders
this gem...
"Cavaliere (croce con spade) dell'Ordine dell'Aquila Romana (Dinastico della
Famiglia Mussolini)"
Does anyone know who is sponsoring the "orders of the "Mussolini Dynasty"?
If the awards are in order of precedence then it follows a "Clermont" award
but is immediately followed by one of the few awards that seems genuinely
worthy
"Croce al Merito di Servizio con Diploma di Benemerenza " della Associazione
Nazionale Vigili del Fuoco Volontari" - a volunteer firefighter's merit and
service award from their national association.

Guy Stair Sainty...

You will find a notice in Burke's on the Mussolini Order of the Roman
Eagle; the Duce would have laughed at the pretensions of his younger sons
who were persuaded to set this up. The late Romano (who died a few months
ago) was the last "grand master" - whether Alessandra, Member of the Italian
Parliament (and leader of the Alternativo Sociale) will assume it I doubt.

George Lucki...

I forgot to add one other gem...
"Presidente Internazionale, Ideatore e Co-Fondatore del "Sovrano Ordine
Equestre del Principe Illuminato" (S.O.E.P.I.) dall'ottobre 1986
(Associazione Culturale "de facto" associata da anni all' A.V.I. -
Associazione Vegetariana Italiana, già affiliata alla A.C.V. - Associazione
Culturale Vegetariana, associata al C.V. - Centro Verde - Associazioni
Animaliste, Ambientaliste e Pacifiste Riunite e all' I.V.U. - International
Vegetarian Union gemellata con il "C.A.E.R.", "Centro Ascolto Emergenza
Radio"."

How many other princes have founded chivalric orders associaed with so many
vegeterian groups and with an emergency radio group?
Sheesh.

Bryan J. Maloney...

I knew a guy called "Scotto". He did cartoons about an undergraduate
salamander who couldn't get dates.

mjcar...

Gosh, all that AND a Certificate in Numerology from the University of
Metaphysics! His Excellency is a busy man.

I will just have to be satisfied with my Black Belt in No Can Do.
