Would it be treason?
if I tried to become the emperor of Pennsylvania?
just curious
Answers:
If you tried by force of arms, yes.
If you tried by getting the state legislator to change the name of the chief executive from "governor" to "emperor" and then got elected to that position -- no.
The word you're looking for is 'stupid' not 'treason'.
LOL.I think they will let you be emperor of your own world as much as you like. How many followers have you accumulated so far?
Norton I declared himself Emperor of the United States back in the 1800's, and nobody arrested him for it. (Actually, he was thrown in jail briefly for being nuts, but a judge released him, basically because he hadn't hurt anybody, unlike most rulers)
I'm sure that it could be interpreted as such, but they would probably just lock you up in an asylum. Why Pennsylvania, go for a warm weather state like Florida.
