Eventually, the three remaining Donquixote Family members were found and caught, and then hanged onto a wall above flames, tortured and beaten.

This is reason for him saying that he is back to his own kingdom as his ancestors were the original rulers.

They were replaced by Riku Family when they shifted to Marijois. Here is the [wiki](http://onepiece.wikia.com/wiki/Donquixote_Family) article for that:-

Doflamingo was a World Noble when he was born but his Father left that position when Doflamingo was young. Here is the [wiki](http://onepiece.wikia.com/wiki/Donquixote_Family) article.
