Before and after

The states the record files it as replacing or following, and those that replaced or followed it - Wikidata's own statements, each read from this state's side.

After it

How it ended, as its article says

Dissolved, 1968. Read from the article's section “lead” by its grammar; the claim is only that the article says so.

Following an abortive attempt at forming a republic in 1953, the emergence of a short-lived breakaway state, and the establishment of independence from the United Kingdom, the sultanate was abolished following a successful referendum in 1968, and the Maldives became a republic.

59 rulers, 16 with terms dated as terms, covering 1166 – 1968. Median reign 8.5 years. 2 of 15 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”.

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
