      <description><![CDATA[We don't have a Germany board, so I'm posting this here. 

[quote]A descendant of the last German Kaiser has fled from his home country to France after a series of romances left him penniless.
 
Prince Ferfried von Hohenzollern, 64, who has relatives in royal families across Europe, is taking financial shelter in Strasbourg, his lawyer said.

Prince Ferfried, or Foffi as he is known in Germany, is preparing to file for bankruptcy. According to his lawyer, Axel Joch, he can benefit from relief from his creditors within months in France, whereas under German law they could pursue him for years.[/quote]

      <description><![CDATA[[quote]Indian lawyer acclaimed as head of royal house - Prince Philip's cousin sets out 'incredible' theory Balthazar Napoleon de Bourbon, a jovial Indian lawyer and part-time farmer, has always been fascinated by France. Framed pictures of the Eiffel Tower and the palace of Versailles implausibly decorate his house in a dusty, bustling suburb of the central Indian city of Bhopal. He gave his children French names even though he has never set foot in France. 

But he may soon make his first trip to Paris, after he was visited by a relative of Prince Philip, who told him that he is the first in line to the lost French throne. 

This Indian father-of-three is being feted as the long-lost descendent of the Bourbon kings who ruled France from the 16th century to the French revolution. A distant cousin of Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette, he is alleged to be not only related to the current Bourbon king of Spain and the Bourbon descendants still in France, but to have more claim than any of them to the French crown.[/quote]


[quote] Prince Michael of Greece, the cousin of Prince Philip, this week published a historical novel called Le Rajah de Bourbon, which traces the swashbuckling story of Mr Bourbon's first royal ancestor in India. Prince Michael believes Jean de Bourbon was a nephew of the first Bourbon French king, Henry IV. In the mid-16th century Jean embarked on an action-packed adventure across the world which saw him survive assassination attempts and kidnap by pirates to be sold at an Egyptian slave market and serve in the Ethiopian army.
