Rulers
The line of king.
| Ruler | Reign | Length | How it ended · source | To the ruler before |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Zimri-Lim | 1775 BCE – 1761 BCE | 14 years | died in office, manner not recordedread off the dates alone |
1 rulers, 1 with terms dated as terms, covering 1775 BCE – 1761 BCE. Only 14 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”.
What happened within it, by century
Every row the atlas hosts under this state, by the century it began in: wars and battles in red, risings, regime changes and massacres beside them, everything else in grey. A tall bar is a century the record is full for, which is partly a fact about Wikipedia.
