Assim mesmo, entre aspas. "Reis tolos" tem a ver com o conto "A Roupa Nova do Rei", de Andersen.

reis/soberanos/governantes incompetentes/tolos/imbecis
Acho que reis ou governantes faz sentido, seguindo o contexto da frase seguinte.
Heróis tem seus governantes/reis incompetentes. A maioria das situações que criam oportunidades para o heroísmo são falências/incompetência administrativa.
