I read on Wikipedia that in early 1110s the Isle of Man (& other islands part of the same kingdom) expelled their king & it was a few years before someone else claimed the title. In that time who (if anyone) would have taken care of the business of governing & taxing the peasantry?

HBO Rome theres a bit where the king of Bithynia says he wants to see roman show in which women are raped by baboons, Cassius suggests he train his own, but the king says his kingdom has none. Ignoring the weirdness, could the real king of Bithynia have not easily got baboons from a beast merchant?
