Rulers

edit

Please explain why you insist on "rulers" in the title. It is patently wrong. To take just one example, Anguilla is ruled by, and has an head of state which is, the British crown. You have listed its head of government. Fabant, do you understand? For sovereign territories we use "heads of state and government". Why do you think dependencies should be different. -- RHaworth (Talk | contribs) 19:31, 18 January 2008 (UTC)Reply


I think Anguilla is part of a state whose head of state is Queen Elizabeth II, but Elizabeth II is not the head of state of Anguilla. Another example : French Guiana doesn't have a head of state, but there is a representative of the French state (the prefect).

Aland, Macau, Hong Kong, Svalbard

edit

They are not dependent territories, should be removed from the list. --maxval (talk) 08:32, 8 December 2008 (UTC)Reply

  • In practice, Hong Kong and Macau are have a high degree of autonomy and function like a dependency. The dog2 (talk) 17:52, 24 July 2009 (UTC)Reply
    • Having autonomy and being a dependency are two different things (the latter concerns their constitutional position rather than their functioning). So I'm moving them into the autonomous territories group. Furthermore it makes no sense to include all the emirates of the United Arab Emirates. As the autonomous parts make up the whole territory of the country (therefore autonoomy is not the exception but the rule), it can simply be regarded as the next level of government. If we accepted the UAE example, every state of Germany, Malaysia or the USA, etc could be included too. ZBukov (talk) 16:58, 2 February 2012 (UTC)Reply

I also think that all these autonomous regions and so on shouldn't be there because there are many such regions in the world - e.g. in China, Russia... so I think it should only consist of current dependent territories leaders. (talk)

All of them are dependent territories. 218.250.159.25 (talk) 19:56, 6 February 2012 (UTC)Reply

Chronological order

edit

Is there a possibility that someone can rewrite those informations in chronological order like it is here - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_state_leaders_by_date ?? I would like to do this by myself but I am not good enough in such Internet stuff — Preceding unsigned comment added by TigerTatoo (talkcontribs) 14:18, 16 March 2011 (UTC)Reply

So I did it and I am very proud of myself :) TigerTatoo (talk)

So, someone destroyed all my work, whatever... TigerTatoo (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 20:04, 4 May 2012 (UTC).Reply

Found and put in a proper way of doing this (just need some more missing dates by month and/or number of date to list all correctly).That-Vela-Fella (talk) 19:25, 15 June 2012 (UTC)Reply

Could be a good idea but if we want to do this we have to know exact date when these people received power. TigerTatoo — Preceding unsigned comment added by TigerTatoo (talkcontribs) 22:05, 6 February 2012 (UTC)Reply
