100 Longest Reigning Monarchs in History

This video shows the 100 monarchs that reigned the longest time in history.
To create this video, I used the existing list from wikipedia and merged its 3 tables together.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...
For a few people in this list, I could not find any confirmation of their reign, so I have left them out.
Due to the lack of pictures, I sometimes had to insert the map, coat of arms or flag of the nation that the monarch ruled.

Also back then you say diseases were very dangerous because of bad medicine, this is also true but at the same time the likelyhood of contracting a contaigious disease is lower compared today because of less population density and less commerce.

@Nasim Whitehouse1 if you made it past your 5th birthday you were expected to live to your mid 30s in ancient Egypt. 19/18 was the expectancy given to new borns because most would die before the age of 5.

@Hernando Malinche Thing is, nobody expected back then that things would spiral out of control THAT badly. Most expected a short, decisive war. It's just that in the previous decades a series of co-dependent military alliances were made, which is turn kick off a domino effect and through everyone in Europe being someone else ally and rival, soon everyone was in on it. And by then, every nation was too deep into their propaganda and coffers to justify a peace treaty without some significant gains... which didn't happen for a long time, since trench warfare became the norm.

You miss one : 85. Hirohito (1901 - 1989), 124th Emperor of Japan, 63 years reigned.

[@genericpersonx333]

It is debatable because the Monarchy of Japan is both constitutional and non-constitutional in nature. By tradition, the non-constitutional aspect, Hirohito was the Emperor, by virtue of direct lineage dating back to antiquity, from 1926 to 1989. However, Japan created some legal complications in 1868 when they added a layer of Constitutionalism with the Meiji Restoration. Technically, the Emperor assumed a new title, Emperor of the Empire of Japan, that had not legally existed before the Constitution of 1868. Internationally, it is this title that Hirohito assumed in 1926, not simply his title of Emperor as per Japanese tradition. Where it gets even more complicated is that in 1947, the Empire of Japan was formally dissolved, its constitution replaced by a new one, and so technically, the Emperor of the Empire of Japan ceased to be, because the state it represented ceased to be. Hirohito assumed a new title, Emperor of the State of Japan, which he held until 1989. Thus, if you count his monarchical title as Emperor per Japanese tradition only, he held that single title for 63 years. However, if you track his titles through the constitutional thrones he sat upon, he only held one title for 21 years and then another for 42 years. However, all that said, it can be argued that because of certain treaties made before the Meiji Restoration of 1868, foreign powers such as China, Britain, and Portugal had formally recognized the title of Emperor (as per Japanese tradition) as a legal entity, and therefore the Constitutional thrones are just legal constructs of little relevance. So Hirohito could be considered to have held three different titles of Emperor: one he held continuously between 1926 and 1989. Another he held only from 1926 to 1947. The last was only from 1947 to 1989. I can see why the channel declined to include him because lawyers just have to ruin everyone's fun.

While it is disputed as the list shows, No. 2 Taejo had supposedly lived 19 more years after his reign and died in year 165 instead of 146, dying at age 118. Funny story is, his brother was waiting for Taejo to pass away so he could take the reign (Taejo had no heir) but since Taejo wasn't dying, the brother, at age 75, rebelled and Taejo simply gave up his throne. They both died in the same year.

[@BeoryeojinGyejeong]

Yep. That brother (Chadae) who overthrew Taejo, was then in turn overthrown by a court official (Myung Lim Dapbu) who made the third brother (Sindae) the next king. Sindae paid back the favor by making Myung the first ever prime minister of Koguryeo.

As you can see, there is dispute about the Taejo of Goguryeo(Even though I'm Korean, I don't fully believe it). But King Jangsu is a clear history that can be cross-verified. He lived so long that, despite his splendid achievements, his name was chosen as 'Jangsu(long-life)'. And also King Anjang, King Yeongyang, and King Yeongryu of Goguryeo also lived long, so it seems that they had genes for longevity.
