Emperor of The Galaxy
The final Emperor of the Galactic Empire in the Hitchhiker's universe was placed into a stasis field during his dying moments many millennia prior to the events of the series. Leaving the Empire with ruling, but near-dead Emperor, all the heirs died. And so an Imperial President, elected by the Galactic Assembly, is now seen to hold power, without actually wielding any. This was the office held by Yooden Vranx and Zaphod Beeblebrox.
