Map: Emirate of Asir in 1917, its borders in gold among its neighbours

Five thousand years, 3000 BCE to 2026; the state in gold.

How it ended, as its article says

Conquered by Saudi Arabia, 1934. Read from the article's section “lead” by its grammar; the claim is only that the article says so.

The Emirate was gradually absorbed into the Kingdom of Hejaz and Nejd as a protectorate, and was formally annexed by its successor, Saudi Arabia, under the Treaty of Taif in 1934.

1 rulers, 1 with terms dated as terms, covering 1906 – 1923. Only 17 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”.

What led to it, and what came of it

The investigation's own picture: 1 cause the record names and 0 results, the strongest six of each at their own years, joined to the state by the kind of claim - a recorded statement solid, the article's sentence dashed, a theory dash-dot.
