Self-proclaimed monarchy
Coronation of Emperor Napoleon I of France at Notre-Dame de Paris. Napoleon crowned himself as "Emperor of the French" during this ceremony, then crowned his consort Josephine as Empress.
A self-proclaimed monarchy is established when a person claims a monarchy without any historical ties to a previous dynasty.[1][2]
In many cases, this would make them a pretender to the throne (when a ruling dynasty is already established).
