Rulers
The line of head of state.
| Ruler | Reign | Length | How it ended · source | To the ruler before |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Yusuf Ali Kenadid | 1878 – 1905 | 27 years | left office aliveread off the dates alone | |
| Ali Yusuf Kenadid | 1905 – 1927 | 22 years | ending not on record | child |
2 rulers, 2 with terms dated as terms, covering 1878 – 1927. Only 49 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”.
