| Britain's monarchy has evolved over many centuries: emerging as the unified Crown of the United Kingdom as the Anglo-Saxon kingdoms merged, followed by Wales and Ireland falling under the authority of the English crown, and finally with the union of the English and Scottish crowns under James I (James VI of Scotland). Through civil war, constitutional and religious reforms and the days of the Empire, these pages chart the course of the British Crown. |
