The line of Sultan of Ternate.
| Ruler | Reign | Length | How it ended · source | To the ruler before |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Babullah of Ternate | 1570 – 1583 | 13 years | died in office, manner not recordedread off the dates alone |
7 rulers, 1 with terms dated as terms, covering 1570 – 1583. Only 13 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”.
Flags and arms, in order
Each symbol with the years its own statement gives; the timeline flies the one of the year on screen.
