Not exactly. In 1603 the kingdoms of Scotland and England were joined and ruled by James I who was also James VI of Scotland. The two countries became known as the United Kingdom of Great Britain. In 1707, the parliaments of Scotland and England were merged and in 1801 the parliament of Ireland was added to form the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland.
