In what year was Scotland founded by England?

Scotland was not founded by England!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Scotland was a country in itself, it still is a country. Only now it is in a "union" with England, meaning they are supposedly equal partners (this now includes Wales and Northern Ireland). However, England did obviously try to take over Scotland many times and eventually forced through the Act of Union in 1707.But Scotland is a country and has been for many many hundreds of years, a long time before England and Scotland joined and made Britain. Scotland is a country. On its own. Just as much as England is a country, or France is a country, or Italy is a country, to name some random examples. Scotland was NOT founded by England!!

Why did Elizabeth 1 want to execute Mary Queen of Scots?

James VI of Scotland, son of Mary, Queen of Scots, became King James I of England upon the death of Elizabeth I because he was her closest living relative. James was related to Elizabeth through her aunt, Henry VIII's sister, Margaret Tudor. Margaret was James' great-great grandmother and as Elizabeth had no children, he was the next in line for the English throne. With James' succession, began the House of Stuart. Margaret Tudor, Henry VIII's sister, married James IV of Scotland who begat James V, who married Marie de Guise from France, and begat Mary, Queen of Scots, the mother of James VI, who eventually became James I of England. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_I_of_England#Proclaimed_King_of_England
