User:NoSeptember/English and French monarchs overlap chart
This chart shows which monarchs of England and France reigned at the same time. France has had no monarchs since 1870. Monarchs of Great Britain (1707-1801) and the United Kingdom (1801–present) are listed under England in this chart for simplicity. Very short overlaps may not be shown (such as in 1830, 1715 and 1559).
