"Ex-Kings" refers to former monarchs who have lost their thrones, either through abdication, revolution, or other political changes. These individuals often face significant challenges in adapting to life outside of royalty, including loss of status and financial support. Many ex-kings remain influential in their countries or abroad, sometimes engaging in charitable work or political commentary. Historical examples include King Juan Carlos I of Spain, who abdicated in 2014, and King Zog I of Albania, who lived in exile after World War II. Their experiences highlight the complexities of transitioning from power to private life.
