    At what age did Mary, Queen of Scots officially become Queen of Scotland?

    Question #60914. Asked by DukeDawson.

    TabbyTom

    Six days.

    " The death of her father six days after her birth left Mary as queen of Scotland in her own right." (Encyclopaedia Britannica - 2005 CD-ROM edition)

    Actually, in the terms of your question, she never did. Monarchs in Scotland rule over the people rather than the land. That's why she was called "Queen of Scots" and not "Queen of Scotland." Likewise, the are addressed by the honourific "Your Grace" rather than "Your Majesty." This differs greatly from England where Elizabeth I was "Queen of England," not "Queen of the English."
