Rulers
Read from the state’s own English article and its rulers’ articles, where Wikidata names no ruler.
| Ruler | Reign | Length | How it ended · source | To the ruler before |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Alaric I | 395 – 410 | 15 years | ending not on record | |
| Wallia | 415 – 418 | 3 years | ending not on record | sibling |
| Theodoric I | 418 – 418 | under a year | ending not on record |
3 rulers, 3 with terms dated as terms, covering 395 – 418. Only 23 years of the line are dated - too short for a median. 0 of 2 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”.
