Best Answer

The idea is that a King rules a country while an Emperor rules an empire, and empires are made up of more than one country. In practice, these definitions can be applied in various ways. Some countries are larger than some empires, since there is no specific defined size for a country to be. One really large country could be larger than ten small countries. So in some situations, a king might be a greater ruler than an emperor. But the idea is, emperors claim to be greater.
