When I was reading "The Guns of August" I noticed near the begining it says
King Ferdinand of Bulgaria who annoyed his fellow sovereigns by calling himself Czar and kept in a chest a Byzantine Emperor's full regalia, acquired from a theatrical costumer, against the day when he should reassemble the Byzantine dominions beneath his scepter
.
Is it even remotely possible that he could have accomplished even part of his grand ambition?
