Map: Kingdom of Hungary in 1487, its borders in gold among its neighbours
Kingdom of Hungary in 1487, when it held the most ground the borders dataset draws for it: 465,000 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.

54 rulers, 54 with terms dated as terms, covering 1000 – 1918. Median reign 11 years. 24 of 54 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: 3 causes the record names and 1 result, 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.
