| Note | Circular historical diagram with movable paper pointer, dial is arranged in concentric circles, hand moves chronologically from the Holy Roman Emperors, Popes and kings of Europe from AD to 1721. Chart shows a chronology of princes and dukes from the most important Italian duchies and kingdoms from 1000 to 1800. Each century spans 45 degrees. The spheres of influence include the Kingdom of Naples, Kingdom of Sicily, and Duchy of Savoy. The names of the noblemen appear in fourteen concentric rings, one for each title, with 20 degrees for each century. The titles appear at the appropriate positions on the pointer, so that one can turn the pointer to any date to see the names of the noblemen at that date.
