Anton Alekseyevich Bakov (Russian: Антон Алексеевич Баков; born 29 December 1965) is the Chairman of the Russian Monarchist Party and the Archchancellor of the Imperial Throne. He was a member of the State Duma of the Russian Federation from 2003 to 2007. Bakov is a well-known Russian businessman, politician, traveller, writer and human rights activist.
Bakov claims to have restored the Russian Empire through his establishment of the micronation of the Imperial Throne in 2011. In 2014, the Imperial Throne issued a manifesto announcing itself a sovereign nation and that German Prince Karl Emich of Leiningen had succeeded Nicholas II and is now Emperor Nicholas III. Within the Throne, Bakov holds the position of Archchancellor and bears the title of His Serene Highness Prince.
Bakov was born on 29 December 1965 in Sverdlovsk, (now Yekaterinburg) in a family of engineers who worked at the Uralmash machine building plant. He graduated from the Ural Polytechnic Institute (now the Ural State Technical University) in 1988. He was a Lenin grant-aided student and graduated with honours. While a student he became an activist in the anti-communist movement. He organized several political activities including the public boycott of uncontested elections to the Supreme Soviet of the Soviet Union in 1984, the founding of a public movement aimed at re-opening churches closed down by the communists and the saving of the memorials of national history in Verkhoturye in 1987. In 1988, he also initiated the removal of the plates with the names of Joseph Stalin's NKVD executioners from city streets.
