The head of a real caliphate is chosen, not self-designated. It's a process, not a bragging right. Words mean something.

"...standard Arabian practice during the early Caliphates was for the prominent men of a kinship group, or tribe, to gather after a leader's death and elect a leader from amongst themselves, although there was no specified procedure for this shura, or consultative assembly. Candidates were usually from the same lineage as the deceased leader, but they were not necessarily his sons. Capable men who would lead well were preferred over an ineffectual direct heir, as there was no basis in the majority Sunni view that the head of state or governor should be chosen based on lineage alone...

Sunni Muslims developed the belief that the caliph is a temporal political ruler, appointed to rule within the bounds of Islamic law (Sharia). The job of adjudicating orthodoxy and Islamic law was left to Islamic lawyers, judiciary, or specialists individually termed as Mujtahids and collectively named the Ulema....

Shia Muslims believe in the Imamate, in which the rulers are Imams divinely chosen, infallible, and sinless from Muhammad's family – Ahl al-Bayt literally "People of the House (of Muhammad)" regardless of majority opinion, shura or election....

A candidate for caliph must meet the conditions described in the Qur'an and the Sunnah, which are as follows:

  1. He must be a Muslim.
  2. He must be an adult (past puberty)
  3. He must be male.
  4. He must be sane.
  5. He must be just (عادل 'aadil).
  6. He must not be a faasiq (فاسق), that is, someone publicly known to be a sinner.He must be capable of carrying the responsibility of a Caliph.
The right to choose a leader belongs to the Muslim public, generally known as the Muslim Ummah (أمة مسلمة) referring to all Muslims as a single group. The non-Muslim residents of the caliphate do not have any voice in this matter.

Seems you're pretty ignorant about it, since it determines what a caliphate is, and ISIS doesn't get to make up their own definition.

It's the part that determines what a Muslim caliphate is.

Can you prove that it isn't?

I'll understand if you can't.
