I've found a link for a list of Emperors. I found it to be interesting so I thought I'd share it.

The friesian.com site is a wonderful resource for modders looking for historical accuracy.
Mostly because the history section author gives sources for his assertions. Something a good deal of other online resources don't. Especially not Wikipedia. It's why I trust it.
Indeed. And I did mean to specify the history section. I'm not overly fond of the Friesian school of philsophy itself, being rather more Hegelian in outlook. ;)
Sadly, while wikipedia is often a good source when combined with other sources, it can't be relied upon to be always factual. It and to a larger degree the "steering" done by Google, have done a lot to lower the internet "IQ" by a considerable amount. Used with caution, though, wikipedia can be useful.
Wiki is good for a pointer... Sort of 'this is what you should look for', and of course the mentioned combination. But when you combine wiki with something you often end up finding the source that has been used, which then makes wiki obsolete.
Wiki is the encyclopedia of the net. I would never use a simple a encyclopedia as a source (I would however use dedicated encyclopedias) but I would use it to get a feeling for a subject I might not be too knowledgeable about.
