Map: Rouran Khaganate in 407, its borders in gold among its neighbours
Rouran Khaganate in 407, when it held the most ground the borders dataset draws for it: 3.86 million km². Its neighbours wear their tints, as on the atlas's own map. Borders from Cliopatria (CC BY 4.0), coast and rivers from Natural Earth, cities from Reba, Reitsma & Seto 2016 (CC BY 4.0), each city under the name it bore that year.

Five thousand years, 3000 BCE to 2026; the state in gold.

How it ended, as its article says

Conquered by Turks invaded, 555. Read from the article's section “History - Decline” by its grammar; the claim is only that the article says so.

In 555, Turks invaded and occupied the Rouran and Yujiulü Dengshuzi led 3,000 soldiers in retreat to Western Wei.

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.

What led to it, and what came of it

The investigation's own picture: 3 causes the record names and 0 results, the strongest six of each at their own years, joined to the state by the kind of claim - a recorded statement solid, the article's sentence dashed, a theory dash-dot.
