It depends on your definition. William III had been scheming with the anti-James officials for years, and did land with 21.000 troops in London and only became king (and not just a regent) because of the high-level game of diplomacy he played for years, threatening to leave with his army (and thus spark civil war), if they did not give him what he wanted. He had a lot of luck, but I would call that a very smart take-over.

Other fact: Dutch people are the tallest in the world, with 183.8 cm (6 ft 1⁄2 in) for males and 170.7 cm (5 ft 7 in) for females.

skourby...who are you to say still have to do better? Your facts are either obvious or boring or both.

Belarus and Lithuania were one country from Febuary 1919 to July 1919 and had three capitals during it's existence: Vilnius (taken in the Polish Vilnius offensive), Minsk (taken in Operation Minsk) and Smolensk (last capital) during its existence.

The United States of America had a self-declared emperor from 1859 to 1880: Joshua Norton. He abolished both Republicans and Democrats, for "being desirous of allaying the dissensions of party strife now existing within our realm". The people of San Francisco loved him, and at his funeral 30.000 people attended. Look his full story up, it's awesome.

Xypapy, Canada was still controlled by the British Empire. The US fought the British Empire in the War of 1812 because they British kept commandeering American boats and ships and forcing them to join the Royal Navy (they didn't do this only to Americans). The British won, but they stopped kidnapping men to keep their Navy up in numbers, so I guess the US sort of won, too?
