Do you have an American dream? Politics hardly matters -- right, left, socialist, capitalist, whatever -- it is hard to imagine that anyone in the United States has prevented the imagination from producing sights and sounds of a better future; one in which not only financial security but, comprehensively speaking, personal fulfillment are attained. What about for foreign royalty and nobility? Do they have any use for American dreams? This might seem like a stupid question, at least until the lives of five individuals -- two kings, two princes, and a queen -- are considered. These five people, separated by time, culture, and national origin, all found themselves in positions of dignity and power one day, yet were forced to live the life of an outcast the next. Each of them made their way to American soil and were confronted with an entirely new situation; one in which no royal court or regal title could grasp what they were searching for.
