Original Title: TIL about Emperor Norton, an eccentric with no formal power. Dressed in full regalia he would inspect the streets of San Francisco and give edicts which were published by the newspapers. Some businesses even accepted currency with his face on it. When he died over 10,000 people viewed his body.
