  1. ^ Dating by the most common institutions targeted, the executive and legislature. This is the date of the Crown and Parliament Recognition Act, following on the Glorious Revolution (1688) and the Bill of Rights (1689).

Here we are speaking of institutions in the modern era, not antiquity or the middle ages; and institutions in large states, not city states.
