Why did England join Scotland?
As Queen Elizabeth the 1st died and she had no heirs (children) the only person was King James the 6th of Scotland who became King James the 1st of England. That is how England joined Scotland
Why was James I of England also James VI of Scots?
Because in Scotland there had been 5 other kings before him called James, so he became King James VI of Scotland. Then when Queen Elizabeth I died in England without an heir, the English crown passed to James and he became King of both nations, but there had be no previous Kings called James in England, so he became King James I of England and the VI of Scotland.
When was The Last King of Scotland created?

What is older England or Scotland?
England became a unified state in 927. The equivalent point in time for Scotland is less clear. Tradition suggests the state was founded in 843 by Kenneth MacAlpin but in written history he is merely king of the Picts. The first king of Scotland/Scots was Donald II who ruled in 889. From this point of view Scotland is slightly older. Edit: It wasn't until 1018 that the Angles were finally defeated in Scotland when Malcolm II defeated the English and Lothian became part of the country. This date of 1018 is also accepted as the formal foundation date for Scotland, making England nearly 100 years older than Scotland, so it depends if you want to take 843 or 1018 as the start date, both could be argued to be correct.
Does England own Scotland?
No, England does not own Scotland and never has. In 1603 King James VI of Scotland took over the English throne and became King James I of England, a Scottish king ruling England. In 1707 Scotland and England united their parliments and became The United Kingdom of Great Britain.Note: At the time Scotland and England united, Wales was considered a part of England hence the reason that Wales is not represented on the Union Flag. Also it wasn't until 1800 that Ireland joined the union (the part now known as the Republic of Ireland left the union in 1922, while Northern Ireland has remained a part of the UK). Currently the UK is made up of the countries of Scotland, England, Wales and Northern Ireland. All are equall and Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland all have their own devolved governments (although all major decisions such as foreign affairs and defence are made by the UK government that includes Ministers from all the nations of the UK).Ultimately, the current English throne is Scottish- James VI of Scotland became James I of England.England is just one of four countries in the union, it is governed directly from Westminster, as is the United Kingdom, as England don't have their own exclusive parliament like Scotland, Wales and N.Ireland. Scotland isn't owned by England nor have they ever been because there is a union. However England cannot currently get independence from the United Kingdom as the English haven't bothered to vote for their own parliament whereas Scotland has.Scotland is part of the united kingdom they may have there own goverment but they still are under the crown and David Cameron is still there prime minister
