In the somewhat rare situation that two people such as a president and a prime minister both have functional rather than just ceremonial powers, then both are listed. Ceremonial leaders are not listed. Persons who have maintained continuous effective leadership under more than one title are listed from when leadership began, and their current titles are noted. This is done to make this list a quick reference on how long world leaders have been in charge.
