Den skotske kungen Jakob VI av huset Stuart blev 1603 även kung av England (och Wales och Irland) efter att ha ärvt den engelska tronen när Elisabet I av England avled, det uppstod därmed en personalunion mellan Skottland och England. Kung Jakob flyttade då till England och blev James I av England.

Although James married and had seven children, by nature he was homosexual and the appointment of favourites as advisers caused resentment. James had a Presbyterian background and the Roman Catholic conspirators who attempted to blow up the opening of Parliament on Tuesday 5 November 1605 were suitably dealt with. Robert Cecil and Francis Bacon were among his advisers but he had Sir Walter Raleigh executed for fighting in Spain's American colonies and would not tolerate privateering which had been so profitable in Elizabeth's reign. James's faculties declined as he grew older. He has an extensive biographical entry in the Dictionary of National Biography.11
