that time it has never been partitioned.

Edward the Confessor Q042, three
Danish kings ruled all England-Ca-
mute, Harold I. and Hardicanute. The
first king Of Great Britain was James

Of Ireland by Henry VIII. and there
after this title vas used until the act
Of union In 1901. The imperial sover-
eighty Of India was assumed by Queen
