Map: Estado Novo in 1958, its borders in gold among its neighbours
Estado Novo in 1958, when it held the most ground the borders dataset draws for it: 2.21 million km². Its neighbours wear their tints, as on the atlas's own map. Borders from Cliopatria (CC BY 4.0), coast and rivers from Natural Earth, cities from Reba, Reitsma & Seto 2016 (CC BY 4.0), each city under the name it bore that year.

3 rulers, 3 with terms dated as terms, covering 1926 – 1974. Only 48 years of the line are dated - too short for a median. 1 of 2 handovers irregular - a killing, a deposition, a rival claimant, a rising or a coup beside it. A blank in the last column means no kin on record, which is coverage, never “unrelated”.

What happened within it, by century

What led to it, and what came of it

The investigation's own picture: 1 cause the record names and 2 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.
