Answer 1

James II, William III, Anne, George I.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. James II 1685-1688: He was king of England, Ireland, and Scotland until he was deposed in the Glorious Revolution. He is remembered as the last Roman Catholic emperor of England, Ireland, and Scotland.
2. William III 1689-1702: He was also known as William of Orange and he reigns the Dutch Republic since 1672. He was king of England, Scotland, and Ireland because of his grandfather on behalf of his mother king Charles of England.
3. Anne 1702-1714: She was Queen of England, Ireland, and Scotland. After 1707 under the Union Act two of her realms united as a single sovereign state known as Great Britain (those realms were England and Scotland).
4. George I 1714-1727: He was king of Great Britain and Ireland. He assumed thanks to the Act of Settlement 1701. There were over fifty Roman Catholics closer to Anne by primogeniture but that disqualified Catholics from inheriting the British Throne.
