Question

Who reigned after elizabeth the first?

Answer 1

Mary Contrary, he wasn't formerly James VI of Scotland, he remained that after additionally becoming King of England and Ireland.

James VI of Scotland became James I of England after the death of Elizabeth I. He is usually known as James VI & I or as James I & VI, although I think the first form is more usually used. Only after the union of the crowns of England and Scotland was it assured that only one regnal number would have to be used, although certain names, like Charles, were used the same number of times in both England and Scotland.

Answer 2

James I Stuart, formerly James VI of Scotland, the son of Mary Queen of Scots.
