Map: Former Qin in 378, its borders in gold among its neighbours
Former Qin in 378, when it held the most ground the borders dataset draws for it: 1.80 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.

5 rulers, 5 with terms dated as terms, covering 355 – 394. Only 39 years of the line are dated - too short for a median. 1 of 4 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 led to it, and what came of it

The investigation's own picture: 4 causes the record names and 5 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.
