  1. The Stuarts.

    http://www.royal.gov/uk  has a great history section.


  2. The House of Stuart or Stewart was a royal house of the Kingdom of Scotland, later also of the Kingdom of England and the Kingdom of Ireland, and finally of the Kingdom of Great Britain. The House of Stuart ruled the Kingdom of Scotland for 336 years, between 1371 and 1707. Queen Elizabeth I of England's closest heir was King James VI of Scotland via her grandfather King Henry VII of England, who was founder of the Tudor dynasty.

    At Elizabeth's death, James Stuart ascended the thrones of the Kingdom of England and the Kingdom of Ireland and inherited the English claims to the French throne. From 1603, the Stuarts styled themselves "Kings/Queens of Great Britain", though there was no parliamentary union until the reign of Queen Anne, the last monarch of the House of Stuart. The Stuarts were followed by the House of Hanover, under the terms of the Act of Settlement 1701. Members of various cadet and illegitimate branches still survive today.

  3. You mean Tudors (the letter "t" ain't next to "d" dude).....

    It was the Stuarts.

  4. It's Tudor, not tutor.  They weren't private teachers, you know.

    And the Stuarts took over.  After they killed Charles I, the Cromwells ruled for about ten years or less, and then the Stuarts came back and retook the throne (Charles II and James II)

    After the Wars of the Roses, I think It's William and Mary of Orange (that's their name, by the way, Orange) and then Anne, and then the Hanovers (George I, II, III, and IV) then Victoria, Edward VII, George V, Edward VIII, George VI and Elizabeth II.  

    I might be missing someone in the 18th century.  Doesn't seem like enough of them.

  5. After the Tudors, the Stuarts came into power, starting with James the 1st, the son of Mary queen of Scots.

  6. The Stuarts, with King James I, after Elizabeth I.

  7. the stuarts (and it's tuDors by the way)

  8. Elizabeth-I was the last member of the House of Tudor

    She was succeeded by King James VI who was from the House of Stuarts - who held the throne through Queen Anne

    The throne then passed through the House of Hanover, then the Wettins and finally to the House of Windsor who reigns on the throne to this day.
