Karl Friedrich, Grand Duke of Baden ruled for 73 years and 29 days.
In case you don't consider him a true monarch, the next in line would be Louis XIV of France, who ruled for 72 years and 110 days.

The sign divides muslims and non-muslims on the road to Mecca.
Richard Francis Burton made the pilgrimage to Mecca and Medina disguised as a muslim although he wasn't one.
Good enough?
