James VI, the son of Mary Stuart, queen, reigned from 1567 over Scotland and from 1603 succeeded as James I, the heir of Elizabeth I of England; his belief in the divine right and his attempts to abolish Parliament and to suppress Presbyterianism created resentment that led to the Civil War, but from Hebrew and Greek, his auspices sponsored the translation of the King James Bible, published in 1611.
People forced Mary Stuart, the Catholic monarch and queen of Scotland, in 1567 to abdicate in favor of James, her son.
