Scotland and England

In 1603, Queen Elizabeth I of England died and was succeeded by the then King of Scotland, James VI. Though James had united the Crown, he did not unite the Kingdoms. Famously he compared his rule of two kingdoms to the polygamy of a man with two wives. It was around this time that the first Union Flags were used. The century to follow was full of constitutional turmoil and civil war. For a brief period during Cromwell's Protectorate, there was just one Great Britain (though a republic not a kingdom) but with the re-instatement of the crown in the form of Charles II the two kingdoms were one again politically separate. It was not until Queen Anne that the two kingdoms were finally and permanently united to make the United Kingdom of Great Britain.

With that history explained, we shall start our list with the Union of the kingdoms. For details prior to 1707, refer to: Kings and Queens of England, Kings and Queens of Scotland, Kings and Queens of Ireland and Kings and Queens of Wales
