- Union of the crowns with Kingdom of England from 1603
 
(See also English Interregnum)
(Co Monarch)
(Co Monarch until 1694) Scottish throne was replaced with that of the Kingdom of Great Britain in 1707 From 1707, the titles King of Scots and Queen of Scots are incorrect. Hence, this list runs up to 1707; for monarchs after that date, see List of British monarchs.
The list of monarchs of Scotland concerns the Kingdom of Scotland . According to tradition, the statewas created by Kenneth I of Scotland  in 843, however modern historiography would tend to see his grandson Constantine II of Scotland  as the creator of the kingdom of Alba which became Scotland. The independent  kingdom  changed in nature following the Acts of Union  in 1707 , when, already having in 1603 inherited the throne of England, it became one with the Kingdom of England  to form the Kingdom of Great Britain.

Today, Scotland  exists as one of the constituent countries  and nations  of the United Kingdom , alongside England , Wales and Northern Ireland .

From the reign of Macbeth of Scotland , Scottish monarchs most commonly employed the style King of Scots or Queen of Scots, with the exception of the final three: William III, Mary II and Anne used the style "of Scotland" rather than "of Scots" (see Style of the monarchs of Scotland ). The Gaelic styles rí Alban (King of Scotland) and ard-rí Alban (High-King of Scotland) were probably used from the time of Constantine II.

Charles II  was the last monarch to be crowned in Scotland, at Scone.

Although genealogists divide the monarchs of Scotland into "Houses", based on continental European ideas of dynasties, it appears that the kings and queens of Scotland, insofar as they thought about their ultimate origins, traced their descent from Fergus Mór, the legendary founder of Dál Riata  said to have flourished in the late 5th century, and from his grandson Gabrán mac Domangairt  and brother Loarn mac Eirc. James VI is recorded as saying that he was a "Monarch sprunge of Ferguse race". After the Restoration of 1660, when Jacob de Wet  was commissioned to produce portraits of Scotland's past and present rulers for Holyrood Palace, the series began with Fergus Mór.

Granddaughter of Alexander III, is sometimes considered to have been heiress or Queen from 1286 until her death in 1290, although she never set foot in Scotland and was never crowned at Scone.
