Read from the state’s own English article and its rulers’ articles, where Wikidata names no ruler.
| Ruler | Reign | Length | How it ended · source | To the ruler before |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mahmud Barzanji | 1918 – 1919 | 1 year | ending not on record |
1 rulers, 1 with terms dated as terms, covering 1918 – 1919. Only 1 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”.
