States
2,283 states with a page of their own, of the 3,291 the atlas holds from 3000 BCE to the present: each with its rulers in order and how each reign ended, its ground by year where the borders dataset draws it, its flags with their years, and what the atlas records within it. By region, the best known first; every state of a region is on the region's own page.
