Invading and kidnapping the leader of a sovreign nation sounds rather illegal to me.

Is it really illegal is nobody has the power to apply that designation?
Absolutely. I declare it so.
There's no such thing as a sovereign dictatorship, that's a contradiction in terms.

> The roles of a sovereign vary from monarch, ruler or head of state to head of municipal government or head of a chivalric order. As a result, the word sovereignty has more recently also come to mean independence or autonomy.
