"Monarchy of England", "King of England", and "Queen of England" redirect here. For an overview of the system itself, see
British monarchy and Constitutional monarchy in the United Kingdom.This is a list of the monarchs of
England. Traditionally, the first monarch of England is listed as
Egbert,
Bretwalda from 829, though the kingdom was not permanently unified until 927, under
Athelstan. Union with
Wales was enacted in 1536, and with
Scotland in 1707 to form the
Kingdom of Great Britain. Since that date the title King (or Queen) of England has been technically incorrect, though has remained in wide usage to the present day. The subsequent union with
Ireland in 1801 was amended in 1922, and the current full name of the state is the
United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.
