	Elizabeth and Henry VIII were not rulers of the UK, they were the monarchs of England!

	I second the point above! (Elizabeth I was queen of England, but Elizabeth II was queen of the UK). Also, Victoria was not "Victoria I", she was just "Victoria".

	Peter and Catharine are also usually only called "the Great" and not numerically, while Suleiman did them one better and is usually titled "the Magnificent."

	I would argue in favor of allowing "the Great" for Peter & Catherine.

	good game but it would be nice if you'd allow for example Karl V instead of charles V, seeing that that is his actual name

	Neither Grace nor Marie Antoinette were monarchs in their own right. They were married to the monarchs.

	Good idea, and a fun quiz but: 1) Henry VIII and Elizabeth I were not monarchs of the United Kingdom (they did not rule Scotland) they were monarchs over England and Ireland (Henry also claimed the French crown), that is like calling a Rome Emperor the monarch of Italy; 2) you should accept "Peter the great" and "Catherine the great".

	I agree with viola. Also, the title should probably say "his or her," since there are rulers of both sexes.

	Monarchs are not consorts.
