Historically speaking, the best way for a non-related person to become monarch is to remove the old one by force.

What is the modern way to seize a throne? Who would you need/what would you need?

Better yet how do you make your own dynasty?

I believe the last monarch to get the throne 'without a claim' was Haile Selassie I of Ethiopia. He did it by 'proving' he was related to Soloman, and by being a General.

Marry one of the princesses, kill everyone who is before her in line for seccession...sneakily, of course.

Done.

A little google also shows that only the ruling monarch has immunity from the law, so if I could get the princess to do the killings then I'd be clean and she'd not be able to be prosecuted.

I wouldn't technically be a "King" this way, I'd be the Queen's consort (like Prince Philip at the moment) but it's close enough.

Revolution, why be a "king" when you can be Supreme Overlord of the Universe and wear crazy hats.

I wouldn't want to. I wouldn't be fit to lead an entire nation.

There is a friend I'd gladly help become supreme ruler, but I'm not overlord type. I much prefer my posting at the Ministry of Bitches, which includes the responsibility of maintaining the Harems.
