Where it sits in time
Five thousand years, 3000 BCE to 2026; the state in gold.
Rulers
The line of head of state.
| Ruler | Reign | Length | How it ended · source | To the ruler before |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Juliana of the Netherlands | 1948 – 1949 | 1 year | left office aliveread off the dates alone |
1 rulers, 1 with terms dated as terms, covering 1948 – 1949. Only 1 years of the line are dated - too short for a median. A blank in the last column means no kin on record, which is coverage, never “unrelated”.

Each symbol with the years its own statement gives; the timeline flies the one of the year on screen.

What happened within it, by century
Every row the atlas hosts under this state, by the century it began in: wars and battles in red, risings, regime changes and massacres beside them, everything else in grey. A tall bar is a century the record is full for, which is partly a fact about Wikipedia.
