The earliest European emperors date back to the time of the Roman Empire, and theoretically, only heirs to the Roman Empire recognized by the Holy See were eligible to be called emperors, while other countries, even if they were more powerful, their monarchs could only be called kings.

Of course, there are exceptions to the European emperors, such as Napoleon in 1804 to change the French Republic for the French Empire, and took the crown symbolizing the emperor from the hands of the Pope.

Most of Europe's emperors, with the exception of the Napoleonic family, were inextricably linked to the Roman Empire. However, the emperors and kings of Europe did not have a subordinate relationship, they were only the supreme rulers in two different systems.

There are currently 11 other countries in Europe that retain a King/Queen, including: the United Kingdom, Belgium, Norway, Sweden, Denmark, the Netherlands, Luxembourg, Spain, Andorra, Monaco and Liechtenstein.
