Rulers
Read from the state’s own English article and its rulers’ articles, where Wikidata names no ruler.

5 rulers, 5 with terms dated as terms, covering 1992 – 2006. Only 14 years of the line are dated - too short for a median. 0 of 4 handovers irregular - a killing, a deposition, a rival claimant, a rising or a coup beside it. The violent-handover count is withheld: power changed hands so often that any rising falls beside one (exposure 1.00, limit 0.6). A blank in the last column means no kin on record, which is coverage, never “unrelated”.
