Here's a list of some anti-Semitic emperors and monarchs in Europe from Classical Antiquity to the Late Modern era: Tiberius, Caligula, Claudius, Hadrian, Constantine I, Constantius II, Justinian I, Reccared I, Sisebut, Chintila, Erwig, Philip II, Louis IX, Henry III, Louis IX...
Edward I, Philip IV, Charles IV, Louis I (Hungary), Charles VI, Albert II/V, Maximilian I, Ferdinand II, Manuel I, Ivan IV, Leopold I, Catherine II, Nicholas I, Maria Theresa, Wilhelm II, Alexander III. All expelled/massacred/legally restricted Jews and many more could be listed.
Accidentally included Louis IX twice. IIRC the first should be Louis VIII, but there were many Louis and I can't remember which one I was thinking of.
