Anti-Kaiser

In Shirerithian legal theory and history, an anti-kaiser refers to a claimant to the position of Kaiser that was rejected by Shireroth and by history. Usually Anti-Kaisers would arise in times of absence of the kaiser or in times of chaos, disappearing, being killed or imprisoned when order is restored or a new Kaiser enthroned.

A number of them were satiric.
