Same goes for Idi Amin, though I have a feeling we have discussed this before somewhere.

The Live Poll: https://www.imdb.com/poll/V17dccMerj4/ was erroneously placed under Favorite Royal Oscar-Nominated Performance? instead of correctly under Favorite Noble Oscar-Nominated Performance? The poll suggestion regarrding Oscar-nominated royal character performances has yet to go live.

* King, Queen, Prince, Princess, Emperor, Empress ...
Are you sure all the options in the list are still valid, since you changed "royal" to "sovereign"?

I still don't see why you would include dictators who are not royals and who are not members of ruling families and exclude actual royal characters like Laughton's Henry.

Royalty has also evolved.The type of royal families and their monarchies you refer to aren't being founded or created anymore. More likely, they are being phased out or their power is being taken from them. That has been in the cards for over a hundred years or more, as evidence by their decline. The nouveau royalty of today, mostly created in the past century has come in the form of dictators establishing personalist rule (today's equivalent of a monarchy). Granted, some have been limited to a single generation, but so have some royal lines.These family dictatorships differ little from the framework of a monarchy except for some minor details. Kim Jong-un, The Great Successor and The Brilliant Comrade is the third generation member of North Korea's dictatorial royal family is a perfect example. Other single and multi-generation family dictatorships include, but are not limited to the following examples (according to Wikipedia).
Europe
Which of these select all-time Oscar-nominated performances depicting a movie character of a country's immediate ruling* family is your favorite? * King, Queen, Prince, Princess, Emperor, Emperess, Dictator and Dictatress or other family equivalent (real-life or fictional).
I also based on the logic and facts above think that it is a reasonable to group Kings, Emperors and Dictators under a ruling umbrella. A personalistic regime (dictatorship,hereditary dictatorship ), an absolute monarchy (king, royal family) and a despotate (emperor, imperial family), all basically operate the same in practice (with divine right being the primary difference). Hence, I have the revised title to Favorite Oscar-Nominated Ruling Family Performance.
