Dates

The date for the Mutawakkil Kingdom are give as 1918-1958. There is something wrong, as Muhammad al-Badr was not overthrown until Sept. 1962. In the square header at the right, it's even worse: the date given is: - Civil War: September 27, 1958. It should read September 27, 1962, which would concordate with the date given under Muhammad al-Badr, unless I make some mistake or didn't get the clue. Anybody objects if I correct this? Thanks--Ilyacadiz (talk) 20:52, 17 October 2008 (UTC)

1948 coup

"Imam Yahya died during a coup in 1948 and was succeeded by a firm heir. Yahya's son, Ahmad bin Yahya, regained power several months later." I understand that the king was overthrown and killed, but what is a "firm heir"?- obviously not his legal heir.
