Royal Prerogatives: His Tremendousness Giorgio Carbone

His Tremendousness Giorgio Carbone,  Prince of Seborga, 1936 - 12009

Prince Giorgio Carbone died on November 25 aged 73. He was elected prince of Seborga (on the Italian Riviera) from 1963 until his death.

He leaves no heirs, and Seborga's royal destiny is uncertain.
