1According to tradition, this monarch is the first person to be titled 'King of Scots'. 2This person is recorded in some sources to have succeeded their parent to the throne for a short time. 3This person had a brief claim to the throne as a result of the previous monarch's inability to secure widespread support for a time. 4This person was the heir apparent to the Scottish throne and both they and their spouse were invited by the Scottish Parliament to take up the monarchy under the banner of Protestantism. 5During this monarch's reign, in 1707, the personal union of the Scottish and English crowns (which began in 1603) became a political union and Scotland ceased to be an independent country.
