Following the death of Elizabeth I, James I supported her religious policies, continuing the Protestant direction of the Church of England. His accession to the throne in 1603 marked the union of the crowns of England and Scotland, and he sought to maintain stability by promoting a moderate Anglicanism that appealed to both Puritans and Catholics. James also authorized the King James Version of The Bible, further solidifying the Protestant faith during his reign.
