James became James VI of Scotland in 1567 and became King of England in 1603. He reigned as king of Scotland, England and Ireland until his death in 1625.
Note that although the crowns of Scotland and England were united under one monarch, James' attempts to create "Great Britain" as a new united country failed. Great Britain did not exist as a kingdom until 1707 under Queen Anne, the last Stuart monarch.
