| | James I of England - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | James was forced to become involved because his daughter, Elizabeth, was married to the Protestant Frederick V, Elector Palatine, one of the war's chief participants. | | | He ruled in Scotland as James VI from 24 July 1567 until his death, and in England and Ireland as James I from 24 March 1603 until his death. | | | James' chief advisor was Robert Cecil, 1st Baron Cecil of Essendon (the younger son of Elizabeth I's favored minister, Lord Burghley), who was created Earl of Salisbury in 1605. |

| | James I Of Scotland |
| | James I's grandfather, Robert II, had married twice and the awkward circumstances of the first marriage, from which James was descended, led to it being disputed. | | | Before the death of his father in 1406 James was sent to France for safety. | | | After the death of his uncle in 1420, the ransom of £40,000 was finally paid, and in 1424 James returned to Scotland to find a country in chaos. |

| | James was an enthusiast for modern artillery, which he used with some success against the Black Douglases. | | | This murder did not remove the power of the Douglases, but rather created a state of intermittent civil war between 1452 and 1455. | | | Ambitions to take Orkney and Shetland and the Isle of Man to Scotland were not successful. |

| | Famous Scots- James Stewart, King James I of Scotland |
| | The young King James I of Scotland, remained in captivity in England, serving time in the tower, the English court and at other English strongholds for his 'safety'. | | | The ship never made it to France, however, as it was captured by English 'pirates' and young James was sent to the court of Henry IV of England. | | | His relationship with the Highlanders was poisoned by his contempt for their culture and way of life - something he learned at the English Court and which led to his war with the Lord of the Isles. |

| | James, on the other hand, was too anxious to foment change; he did not take into account the anti-Catholic sentiments of much of the British nation; constant wars with continental powers (Catholic) had built a strong, nationalistic British (and Protestant) state. | | | James II and his baby son were debarred from the succession, as were all Catholics. | | | James' plans for equal civil and religious rights for Catholics were out of the question; his efforts to win widespread support for his policies were totally unsuccessful. |

| | In the 13 years he strengthened the machinery of government and justice, replacing the baron's law with the king's law, and restoring the crown to a respect it had not received since Bruce's heart was taken from his rib cage. | | | Albany meanwhile ruled Scotland as governor until his death in 1420, when his son, Murdoch, assumed the regency, and the country rapidly fell into disorder. | | | After his elder brother David was murdered at Falkland (1402), allegedly by his uncle, the Duke of Albany, James was sent for safety to France, but was captured by the English, and remained a prisoner for 18 years. |

| | James also appointed William Schaw as Master of the Work and Warden General in 1583, with the commission of re-organising the masonic craft. | | | In 1598, Schaw issued the first of his statutes, setting out the duties of masons to their lodge and to the public, imposing penalties for unsatisfactory work and inadequate safety practices. | | | In fact he was reasonably successful in his main goals, increasing national prosperity, maintaining peace with Europe and settling the church. |

| | There is correspondence which survives in which James addresses his cupbearer, the young George Villiers, later Duke of Buckingham, as his "sweet child and wife." Though it was a well-kept secret, rumours of James' homosexual tendencies abounded; ironically, he wrote sternly against its practice in one of his own works, Basilicon Doron (1599). | | | On Elizabeth's death, England welcomed James and his royal family enthusiastically. | | | People flocked to James on his way from Scotland, turning his southward journey into a grand procession. |
