An article titled “His Royal Highness, King of Nowhere” reminded me of Farah’s insistence on using the mouthful title “Her Imperial Majesty, Queen of Nowhere” in her website and turns out the English court has invited the former royals of the non-existant nation Yogoslavia to their wedding while the poor Pahlavis are ignored, a testiment to their insignificant clout.
Some will argue it’s a political move but it’s more proof of how real power players in the world don’t take the Pahlavis seriously and neither should we.
