The bird scolded James and I. Do you use James and I or James and me?

James and I is wrong because when you remove "James and", the sentence should still work, but it doesn't. The correct answer is James and me.

Who was James I?

He was a Stuart There are two James I's: James I of England: Was the son of Mary, Queen of Scots and her second husband, Lord Darnley. Mary was deposed in 1567 and Darnley …murdered. Mary then fled to England where she was imprisoned and later executed by Elizabeth I. James, who was only 9 months old when Mary was deposed, was raised a protestant, and at the age of 13 was finally crowned King James VI of Scotland at Stirling. Most of his childhood was dominated by nobles competing for control over the boy king. His tutor, George Buchanan, was a strict and forceful master who taught James to hate his mother. James himself grew into a shrewd and canny monarch but also a deeply disturbed one. Famous for having male mistresses and 'relieving himself' without going to the toilet, he has been described at various times and by various people as: "The wisest fool in christendom" "many virtues ... it must be owned, he was possessed of, but no one of them pure, or free from the contagion of the neighbouring vices." "the most effective ruler Scotland ever had " A very mixed bad indeed. The latter is known as he was able to unite many different warring factions during his reign. This would be important as his great-grandfather, James IV, had married Margaret, the daughter of England's Henry VII, and when Elizabeth I died in 1603, James was the nearest surviving relative, and he was duely crowned, once more, but now as James I of England. These two fueding nations would take all of his strength to unite. A firm believer in the Divine Right of Kings, James brooked no disloyalty and considered Parliament in both England and Scotland to be a rubber stamp. This laid the seeds of the Great Rebellion against his son, Charles I. James was able to divert the anger of the manner of his authoritarian rule, but Charles was not so fortunate. After moving to England, James returned to Scotland only once, in 1617 and the latter part of his reign saw him lost touch with Scottish affairs. In 1618 he tried to enforce religious uniformity with England, but produced such opposition that he never carried through the edict. He died in Whitehall Palace on the 27th of March 1625. James I of Scotland: The second son of the weak and ineffective Robert III, his uncle, the Forceful Duke of Albany had had James' older brother David killed in 1402. Fearing for the safety of James, Robert III evacuated him to France, but he was captured instead by the English and held for ransom. Despite being a prisoner, Henry IV of England ensured that James received a full education appropriate to a royal heir, and James, still only 11, took to King Henry as a surrogate father. When Robert III died in 1406, the Scottish Parliament acknowledged James as King and appointed Albany as his governor until James had become old enough. Knowing that Albany would become King himself if James died in captivity, Albany made no attempt whatsoever to gain James' release. While still captive, James met Lady Joan Beaufort, a relative of England's Henry VI and they began courting. In 1423 (Albany now dead) James was finally released and they both travelled north, getting married in early 1424 and being crowned at Scone. James' rule was marked by bitter disputes with the noblemen who had ruled Scotland in his absence and who had siphoned off royal weath to feed their own coffers. Most particularly, he systematically broke the power of the descendants of his father's siblings, including having Albany's son tortured to death. In a bid to maintain law and order he founded the Court of Succession, which antagonised the nobility further as they had always run the judiciary as part of their feudal rights. On 20th February 1437, James was assassinated in Perth by his uncle, the Duke of Atholl (one of the last survivors of his enemies), and buried in a nearby abbey. He was succeeded by his six year old son, James II. (MORE)
