Best Answer

The famous poem Ozymandias concerns a ruler who was once proud of his power, but who eventually was utterly forgotten. If any actual ruler has been in that position (which is likely) then, of course, we do not know who he was, since he has been utterly forgotten. The poem, therefore, is not based on a specific person.
