Notes

Unlike the rulers of Keoland, an official complete list of rulers of the Great Kingdom was never published in a canonical source. The 2001 Canonfire! article Timeline of Aerdi Grand Princes and Overkings, by Taras Guarhoth appears to be generally respected, but not all rulers or dates can be traced to canonical sources.
