Not every empire does. The Athenian Empire had none and the head of the British Empire was only called such in India.

Gloranthawise, the EWF seems to have never been a formal Empire and I think its description as "Empire of the Wyrms' Friends" was highly perjorative considering the connotations of Emperor in Orlanthi society.
