2 rulers, 2 with terms dated as terms, covering 1627 – 1834. Median reign 26.5 years. 0 of 1 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
