Who would be next?

[edit]

I did a brief search to find out who the next monarchs on the first list would be. If you know of any other monarch with a longer reign than those mentioned, you can add him.

Amazing although what about Thutmose III and Nguyễn Hoàng. Also weren't Savoy and Tuscany apart of the Holy Roman Empire. S302921 (talk) 07:40, 17 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the comment. I will add Thutmose III. As for Nguyễn Hoàng, it appears that he was a feudal lord within the Lê Dynasty.
Italian states ceased to be part of the HRE at the Peace of Westphalia, in 1648. But thank you for Thutmose III.There are many Egyptian pharaohs, have I missed more? 177.91.168.2 (talk) 09:15, 17 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Also that about the subjects of photos i found photos for a couple monarchs online. I'm not sure if these are alk fulky reliable sources but still then.

I'm not experienced at uploading photos and wasn't sure about the source but these could still possibly be used here. S302921 (talk) 09:46, 27 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Is the King of Spain Charles III, who ruled Spain for 29 years, and before that was the King of Naples and Sicily for another 25 years, considered? Андрій ЯЧ (talk) 23:20, 8 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Андрій ЯЧ No, because his reign was over completely separate states, unlike somebody like Ferdinand III who still ruled over Sicily for about 65 years. S302921 (talk) 14:49, 13 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Replying so this doesn't get archived. S302921 (talk) 17:16, 7 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Updating image for Louis XIV

[edit]

I propose changing the image of Louis XIV of France to Pierre Mingard after Louis XIV in armour. I plan to that because the current image for that guy on the page looks boring and the image of what I plan changing to is in only one page in the English Wikipedia records of heads of state. 2001:8003:162C:A500:3963:4F6C:FC8C:FA0 (talk) 19:27, 4 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

At the same time, why would users disagree with image changing without consensus? 2001:8003:162C:A500:9082:952F:DE25:280 (talk) 10:59, 7 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

A few more suggestions for those interested

[edit]

It's difficult to put them in the table (Grote = Hermann Grote: Stammtafeln. Mit Anhang: Calendarium medii aevi (= Münzstudien. Bd. 9). Hahn, Leipzig 1877, (Digitalisat). [1]):

Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah

[edit]

"The following are the 25 longest-reigning monarchs of states who were internationally recognised as sovereign for most or all of their reign" For most or all of their reign While Bolkiah rule since october 1967 to 1984 around 16 years under British protection as at the time Brunei status as British protectorate not colony similar to Tonga Til now he reign for 57 years Which means 16 years under protection and 41 years as independent ruler. Is this cannot be considered as "for most of their reign" at all? If cann't please just erase the wording for most of their reign to only all their reign 114.10.143.19 (talk) 15:43, 3 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
