[*] FK Olümp Maardu were bought in 1998 by steel company Levadia and
      renamed Levadia Maardu, then at the second level, earning
      promotion at the end of the season (and winning the championship
      at the first time of asking).
    In 2000, Levadia also obtained second level FC Maardu (formally a 
      different entity, and previously named KSK Vigri Tartu) as 
      'second' team; they also earned promotion to the top flight at
      the end of 2000, and were renamed Levadia Tallinn for 2001.
    Before the 2004 season, Levadia Tallinn sold its top level 
      license to JK Merkuur Tartu; Levadia Maardu were then renamed
      Levadia Tallinn and the former Levadia Tallinn were renamed
      Levadia II Tallinn, buying the second level license of Sörve JK;
      after these transactions, Levadia and Levadia II Tallinn are
      part of the same entity.
    In 2017 Levadia merged with Infonet Tallinn, becoming FCI Levadia;
      the Estonian FA considers this new club as the continuation of 
      historic Levadia and attributes all honours to this new entity.
