Rulers
The line of monarch of Saint Lucia - the office this state names as its head of state.
| Ruler | Reign | Length | How it ended · source | To the ruler before |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Elizabeth II | 1979 – 2022 | 43 years | died in office, manner not recordedread off the dates alone | |
| Charles III | 2022 – in office | in office since 2022 | still in office | child |
2 rulers, 2 with terms dated as terms, covering 1979 – 2022. Only 43 years of the line are dated - too short for a median. 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”.
Heads of government
The line of Prime Minister of Saint Lucia, drawn and never measured: a cabinet is not a reign.

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.
