Complications over title and style

James VI of Scotland and I of England, united the Crowns of England, Scotland and Ireland in a personal union, later merged into a single Kingdom of Great Britain by the Act of Union 1707.

• In 1328, on the death of the French king, Charles IV, Edward III (nephew of Charles IV) claimed the French throne. While Tudor monarchs continued to claim France and not actually have this based on occupation, the English Stuarts were pensioners of the House of Bourbon just as the Scottish Stewarts were of the House of Valois in opposition to the Plantagenets' actual possession of France. This was to prove the undoing of title, since passing the Test Act and Edict of Fontainebleau revived old tensions; the British and French peace established under James Stuart and Henry Bourbon could not sustain itself. Subsequent Hanoverian monarchs until the Act of Union 1800, had no intimate dealings with the title, but were concerned with their native Brunswick. The French Revolution then rendered a rather Whiggish opinion on the Crown of France to be true, although there was a minor Tory outrage over relinquishing the traditional title. (See English claims to the French throne.)^[clarify]

• Since 1559 English monarchs, and subsequently British monarchs, have also had the title Supreme Governor of the Church of England.

• Note that the numbering of English monarchs starts afresh after 1066 (although this affects only the Edwards). The numerical system prefers the divided national approach; thus James II of England was also James VII of Scotland and William III of England was also William II of Scotland. After the Union, the ordinal has been the English number (for "George", "Edward" and "Elizabeth") and, until recently, there was no formal rule (see List of regnal numerals of future British monarchs).

• All Scottish monarchs held the title King of Scots or Queen of Scots, with the exception of the last three: Mary II, William III and Anne I used the style "of Scotland" rather than "of Scots".

• In October 1604, one year after James VI of Scotland had become King of England, he decreed that the Royal Title would use the term Great Brittaine to refer to the "one Imperiall Crowne" made up of England and Scotland[1]. However using that title is problematic because unified offices of state for Great Britain, were not in total cohesion until the Act of Union 1707 which established the Parliament of Great Britain. Nor was the united crown generally referred to as "imperial", but accentuated the decrees of Henry VIII who declared himself equal in deference with Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor. Some historians thus refer to all monarchs up to 1707 as monarchs of England and Scotland, but for simplicity's sake, the whole realm is considered British because of the Celtic nature behind the Renaissance Tudor-Stuart Establishment and "Britannia's" empire overseas. Courtiers upon the death of Elizabeth, considered James to be a new Brutus of Troy. What further undermined this sense of "British", was separatist Jacobitism amongst the Scots until the union with Ireland. Nevertheless, people in parlance refer to rulers of Great Britain as English in reference to rebellions associated with the Scottish, Irish and Americans.

• In different documents, the terms Kingdom of Great Britain and United Kingdom of Great Britain feature, even documents as official as the Act of Union 1707. Most historians presume the United was meant to be descriptive, indicating a union as a form of unity by marriage rather than coercion. For clarity and because the United is far more strongly associated with the later name United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland produced in the Act of Union 1800, the 1707 Kingdom is generally referred to as the Kingdom of Great Britain.

• Similarly, though most of Ireland ceased to be part of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland when it became the Irish Free State in 1922, neither the full name of the United Kingdom nor the royal title were changed until the Royal and Parliamentary Titles Act 1927. In this instance historians generally retrospectively date the coming into being of the modern United Kingdom to December 1922, even though in this case the formal change did not occur for another five years.

• Due to fierce dissent in Scotland over EIIR postboxes, all monarchs henceforth are numbered according to either English or Scottish reckoning, whichever was higher (per a 1953 announcement)

Monarchs
