India should not be mentioned as being in personal union with Great Britain because it was a British colony, not a sovereign state, and therefore its relationship to England through a common monarch cannot be called a personal union in the sense that Scotland was in personal union with England from 1603 to 1707 or Ireland was in personal union with England from 1541 to 1800.

[edit] Corsica
I didn't realise that we were ever in personal union with Corsica, is this a mistake - don't suppose anybody would mind clarifying this for me? --MC (talk) 16:50, 1 January 2008 (UTC)
