The question of whether numbering for British monarchs is based on previous English or Scottish monarchs was raised in 1953 when Scottish nationalists challenged the Queen's use of "Elizabeth II", on the grounds that there had never been an "Elizabeth I" in Scotland.
Pitanje o tome zasniva li se brojenje britanskih vladara na prethodnim engleskim ili škotskim monarsima postavljeno je 1953., kad su škotski nacionalisti osporili Kraljičinu uporabu imena "Elizabeta II.", jer u Škotskoj nikad nije bilo neke "Elizabete I.".
