Paul Crivez (1894–1984), self-styled as Prince Paul Theodore Paléologue-Crivez from 1945 onwards, was a French eccentric and pretender. Through adoption by Alexandrine Paléologue, the widow of a man by the name of Grégoire Paléologue, Crivez claimed to represent the legitimate heir of the Palaiologos dynasty of Byzantine emperors. Crivez forged genealogies linking Grégoire Paléologue to the ancient dynasty, making him out to be a descendant of Manuel Palaiologos, a nephew of the last emperor Constantine XI Palaiologos. Among his activities as the "dethroned sovereign of the eastern empire of Constantinopolis" were granting titles of nobility, claiming the position of Grand Master of the Constantinian Order of Saint George, appointing his own Patriarch as well as attempting to make the Vatican canonize Constantine XI as a saint.
