Where it sits in time
Five thousand years, 3000 BCE to 2026; the state in gold.
How it ended, as its article says
Conquered by Saladin, 1187. Read from the article's section “lead” by its grammar; the claim is only that the article says so.
The principality was destroyed by Saladin in 1187, although the title was used by relatives and younger sons of the kings of Cyprus (the titular kings of Jerusalem) afterwards, and some of its former holdings were briefly reclaimed by a treaty made during the Barons' Crusade.

Rulers
The line of prince of Galilee and lord of Tiberias - the office this state names as its head of state.
| Ruler | Reign | Length | How it ended · source | To the ruler before |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Joscelin I of Edessa | 1112 – 1119 | 7 years | left office aliveread off the dates alone |
4 rulers, 1 with terms dated as terms, covering 1112 – 1119. Only 7 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.
