British monarchs

In 1603, when queen Elizabeth I of England died without issue, the crowns of England and Ireland were offered to the king of Scotland. He accepted, marking the Union of the Crowns. In 1707, the Kingdoms of England and Scotland became one country, the Kingdom of Great Britain. The Kingdom of Ireland joined in 1801, creating the United Kingdom. Do you know the British monarchs since 1603?

Regnal numbers must be used, unless an epithet is used instead.

Junior co-rulers only included during periods of disputed succession.

The House of Windsor was named the House of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha until 1917, when it changed to its current name to avoid Germanophobia.
