World Statesmen (http://www.worldstatesmen.org)
“World Statesmen is an attempt at a comprehensive and accurate list of
the heads of state and heads of government (and, in certain cases, de facto leaders
occupying neither of those formal positions) for all countries and territories,
going back to about 1700 or in some cases earlier. Some go further back, some
only from their creation. Some subdivisions of some countries are present including
native or traditional polities, provinces, or states. This sight also lists the
leaders of international, religious, and governmental organizations.” Searchable
by leader or by nation, offers a map of the country, audio and text versions
of the national anthem, and text of the national constitution for most countries.
