This is tricky as there is a distinct item for Zaire as a country between 1971 and 1997. However, it both “replaces” and is “replaced by” Q974 (the primary DRC item). Perhaps there should be a separate item for the earlier DRC?
This is also the first time I’ve seen a Head of Government leave office on the same day that the country joined the UN. As it’s not clear whether they should then be counted or not, I’ve omitted them.
There have also been periods when the Head of Government has been the Chairman of the College of Commissioners-General and the First State Commissioner (though this is not currently reflected in the “Office Held by Head of Government” information), and several where I can’t easily figure out who was the Head of Government, so the “expected” figure here is quite likely an undercount. (This isn’t helped by French Wikipedia and English Wikipedia disagreeing in quite a few places.)
