Where it sits in time
Five thousand years, 3000 BCE to 2026; the state in gold.
How it ended, as its article says
Conquered by Ottomans in 1579, 1579. Read from the article's section “lead” by its grammar; the claim is only that the article says so.
In 1537, it became a tributary of the Ottoman Empire, and was annexed by the Ottomans in 1579; however, Christian rule survived in islands such as Sifnos (conquered by the Ottomans in 1617) and Tinos (conquered in 1715).
