	Hanover and Saxe-Coburg-Gotha are the United Kingdom, not England, and some of these places aren't modern-day countries.

	Technically the United Kingdom only came into being with the Act of Union (1800) which added the Kingdom of Ireland to those of England and Scotland. The Hanoverians had ruled over the three Kingdoms from 1714 with the accession of George I. There is an argument that only Edward VII and George V (until the family name was changed in 1917 in the light of anti-German statement to Windsor) were of the Saxe-Coburg and Gotha line.

	@RS89: your comment that some of these aren't modern-day countries makes no sense to me at the moment, unless you're talking about England and Scotland. First, I never said they had to be present day countries. Second, I don't accept United Kingdom because that would be incorrect. The House of Plantagenet never ruled over the United Kingdom. I put multiple dynasties for some countries because you need to think about which country ALL of those dynasties ruled at one time. The present day monarch of the United Kingdom retains the title of King or Queen of England. Those three altogether only have "King of England" in common.

	Bonaparte, Bourbon, Habsburg should also work for the Two Sicilies/Naples.

	I found this really confusing. I like the idea, but I think it could've been executed better.

	@halliejo: Probably true. It was a little tough to make sure there was only one correct answer, since one royal family could have ruled several different countries at any time. If it's beyond saving I could always retract it.
