What (permutation) groups can occur as galois groups of irreducicble polynomials of degree n

I think the answers for the first few degrees ($n$) are:

$n=2$, $S_2$

$n=3$, $S_3,A_3$

$n=4$, $S_4,A_4,D_4,\mathbb{Z}_4,K_4$

$n=5$, $S_5,A_5,D_5,\mathbb{Z}_5,Fr_5$

What results do we have for higher orders and are there any results for a general $n$?
