      While not first the Scottish did actually try to colonise America in an incredibly intelligent way . They tried to build a Canal , much like the Panama Canal with the thought that charging for entry as this would greatly reduce time and danger for shipping would make them incredibly wealthy , however it was a disaster for them due to disease etc ,
      and put Scotland in huge debt ,
      They were definitely too early to the party when trying this as technology wasn’t up to scratch.
      this is one of the main reasons Scotland joined the UK as this huge debt would be covered for them .

      It's a systemic problem too, I interact with a lot of Americans who are staying in Scotland, and apart from the Americanisms and sheer lack of cultural knowledge, they're just geographically illiterate... Some of them think they can just go on road trips in this country like they can in America and are shocked that they end up in another country after just 2 hours of driving.
