5:20 He was James KING OF SCOTS!! NOT “King of Scotland”. As his mother was Mary, Queen of Scots. It matters. To this day. Because in England sovereignty belongs to the crown and everyone was answerable to the wearer. In Scotland sovereignty belongs to the people, and the monarch is answerable to the people. That is why to this day there is no thing as UK law. There is Scots law and English law which forever remain separate, because their fundamental bases and values are diametrically opposite and irreconcilable.
