8 rulers, 8 with terms dated as terms, covering 1993 – 2024. Only 31 years of the line are dated - too short for a median. 0 of 8 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 0.94, limit 0.6). A blank in the last column means no kin on record, which is coverage, never “unrelated”.
Heads of government

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.
