Michael I of Romania
Ex-king, Romanian, Droopy lookalike.
October 25th 1921 – December 5, 2017.
Aged 96 years.

Most recognized for: After his father ran off with a whore and grandpa Ferdinand kicked the bucket, Michael became King of Romania at the age of 5 in 1927. Reluctantly allied with Germany in WWII, he staged a coup against his own military leaders, surrendered to the allies, and by doing so – according to some eggheaded analysts – ended the war 6 months early.
