      Correction: Jacobites weren't exclusively Scottish clans, but a large number of Jacobites did come from the Catholic Highland clans. Jacobites were just supporters of the Catholic Stuart Dynasty: the name coming from the Latin for James II & VII
      (Jacobus). There were many Jacobites and Jacobite sympathisers across the British isle in Ireland and England as well as in Scotland. It's interest to discover that the Government troops that fought against the Jacobites in 1745 were actually Scottish from the lowlands, whom were primarily Protestant and had a distinct culture compared to the Highlanders.

    You missed out the fact that Scottish inventors can be credited with the majority of the most important inventions of the past 200 years.

A Scottish science team were the first people to ever successfully clone a living being (Dolly the sheep) and a Scottish man theorised and founded modern economics. A Scottish man discovered the ability to use fingerprinting in criminal investigations and also another Scottish person theorised the ability to use DNA in the same way.

    one big note that's a pretty sad part of history was the scottish purge after the 1740's Jacobite revolution, after the battle that killed over 4000 Scots the king of england didn't want that to happen again so they executed many leaders of the clans and some of the clans leaders were all killed, the Gaelic language was outlawed entirely, the carrying of a broadsword was made illegal and the kilt was even outlawed I believe

      Ryan Mckie476, when I was researching the history of my Scottish roots, I saw that after the Viking ages, Norway claimed some those Northwest peninsula and islands in Scotland. At that time most of the highlands and lowlands were united under the kingdom of Alba/Scotland. So they said, let’s get them back. So I guess they declared war on Norway. There was the Historic Battle of Largs in where Scotland won. Scotland invaded the rest of Norway’s land and then the Norwegian king died, and the heir of the Norwegian throne made piece with Scotland and gave Scotland its stuff back.

We are better off in the U.K., particularly financially. The yes camp just have not got a valid argument for economics, which should scare anyone against voting yes!
      At the moment, the Sturgeon of the SNP (Scotland’s admiration Leader) is very good at copying the U.K. government and bringing out exactly what they say, but a few hours earlier. Where as, it’s hard for the U.K. government to come off well. It’s always easier for them.
      We had a fair vote, we said no. That shouldn’t change. We can’t keep having votes when we get something the SNP don’t want. The Yes camp will ageee to ANYTHING that gets them another vote. Even if they don’t believe it.

      Naem Khan but even the term British is false because your grouping different ethnic and cultural groups just because they were united under conquest. The Scotts are a proud people and they want to be their own entity which is valid. How would you feel if all of a sudden the Pakistanís took over all of India and called the two counties The United Kingdom’s of South Asia? You would feel as if your culture was assimilated and drowned out, you would feel as if you lost your national and cultural identity.

    This would be a great video for using in a geography class but for a few things. First, SLOW DOWN dude. It's not a race. The video is not useable for a class because you're talking waaayyy too fast. Secondly, saying that the Scots don't like to be called British is a pretty elementary mistake. Third, why no mention of Andrew de Moray or Robert the Bruce? They were the true heroes of the Scottish Wars of Independence. Now you're just perpetuating the myths created by Braveheart. I think you should remake this one.

Another thing the Scotts share with us is words in their language that are the same or similar in the Scandinavian languages, for example: Steid/Sted(place), Lope/Løbe(Run), Kirk/Kirke(Church), Sma/Små(Small), Keek/Kig(Look) and lot's of others.
