Rulers
The line of President of Montenegro - the office this state names as its head of state.
| Ruler | Reign | Length | How it ended · source | To the ruler before |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Milo Đukanović | 1998 – 2002 | 4 years | ending not on record | |
| Dragan Kujović | 2003 – 2003 | under a year | left office aliveread off the dates alone | |

| Filip Vujanović | 2003 – 2018 | 15 years | ending not on record | |
| Milo Đukanović | 2018 – 2023 | 5 years | ending not on record | |
| Jakov Milatović | 2023 – in office | in office since 2023 | still in office |
11 rulers, 5 with terms dated as terms, covering 1998 – 2023. Only 25 years of the line are dated - too short for a median. 0 of 5 handovers irregular - a killing, a deposition, a rival claimant, a rising or a coup beside it. The violent-handover count is withheld: power changed hands so often that any rising falls beside one (exposure 0.73, limit 0.6). A blank in the last column means no kin on record, which is coverage, never “unrelated”.
Heads of government
The line of Prime Minister of Montenegro, drawn and never measured: a cabinet is not a reign.

| Željko Šturanović | 2006 – 2008 |

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.
