Queen Anne kept both capital cities of England and Scotland—London and Edinburgh—following the Acts of Union in 1707 to maintain a sense of continuity and respect for both nations' identities. This decision aimed to integrate the two countries while allowing each to retain its distinct cultural and political heritage. By keeping both capitals, she sought to foster unity while acknowledging the historical significance and administrative functions of each city. This approach helped ease tensions and promote cooperation between England and Scotland.
