Scotland was softened up for union with England by bleaching out its language and culture from the late middle ages with the Scottish (Gaelic) language being replaced at the top society by various versions of English. The stigmatization of the Scottish language continues to this day.
The Scots language we speak today came from The Scotti tribe in Ireland, hence where our Country name came from.The Scotti where named Scotti by the Romans. The Romans saw them as Barbarian pirates...
@@davidwallace4416 the Scots laungage today comes from England mate it's a colonised tongue gaelic came from Ireland and the tribe were called the scotti by the romans which means pirate they called themselves gaels we called Scotland, alba, which means white hills. But when we where anglophide it became Scotland 👍
@@davbhoy10 Alba means Scotland in Gaelic and I did say it was the Romans who named the tribe Scotti from Ireland and I did say also the Romans saw them as Pirates, Maybe I mispronounced that obviously we speak English but there's a language called Scots/Irish that's how we speak in Scotland.we have practily made a new language that nobody would know unless they where a Scot. I could rewrite this comment out in Scots/Irish and you wouldn't understand a word unless you live in Scotland or lived here for a few year's.
@@davbhoy10 For example the English word 'know' In Scotland we would say 'ken' They mean exact same, I live in an Ancient Town in South West Scotland, Edward Longshanks & his Son have both been here staying and camping during Independence war. There's been a Church/Monastery on our main Square for just over one thousand 200 years, 10k population today 700 years ago when The Bruce was King it would have been smaller but obviously still a town which I bet the English plundered lol
@@davidwallace4416 Your literally talking out of your arse! The word ken, came to the British isles in the middle ages. Likely from Flemish people.

Your comment is interesting in that it shows how Scotland is perceived by many around the world (an English colony) while here in Scotland a decreasing number of the population believe the union with England enhances Scotland's status.
@Sidney Pedrosa I'm a Scot I have never felt like living in a colony of England. Anything out of the British isles was a colony of Britain. Scotland played it's part in building the biggest Empire the world has ever seen. Scotland prospered and became more powerful. You do know the Industrial Revolution started in Britain? In factories up & doon Scotland aswell as England & Wales. Most of our trade is with England, We are ruled from Edinburgh not Westminster. Scotland can still vote on English affairs in Westminster but it's only Scottish MPs who run Scotland except for Defence in Edinburgh. The u.k is the most successful Union in history. We won 2 world wars together as the U.K. Why break that up? Why was that a huge mistake??? Most Scots seems to think the same. Before talking nonsense learn how the U.K works. We are all 1 nation. I'm still proud as fuk to be a Scot but also proud of being British. I have family living in England and there's plenty English who has family in Scotland. I like my free passage into any part of the U.K and I'm certain it's same for Wales, England & northern Ireland. Alba Gu Bràth 🏴 and long live our Union 🇬🇧
Current Queen Elizabeth is a descendant of Robert The Bruce, It was a Scottish King that United our Country's. A colony of England haha just STFU if that was the case don't you think we would have left the u.k without any blood shed in the referendum??? OFFCOURSE WE WOULD HAVE !!!
There's 66 million of a population in the U.K, Scotland only has 5.5 mill of the population & 10% of our GDP. OFFCOURSE Scotland could be a successful Independent Country but our true power is with the Union on our small island...
It was never a union it was a stich up from the start and ut was centuries ago i think time has moved on sins then tim for big change for scotland ireland & wales 😊😊😊😊😊
Over 300 year's of the Union, and we have been one of the greatest nations on earth for the whole time. Other nations have come and gone. But great Britain has been at the top table the whole time. There is no need to change this. I am a proud Scotsman. But I am also proud to be British, and I will not change this because of clowns who THINK we will be a great nation on our own. We ARE a great nation the way we are! We are 4 great countries with proud history's. That have come together to form the greatest nation on earth.
tell me do you like the that our country is a parasite on English tax payers because is what we have become. whenever unionists like yourself talk about how great the union is you fail to say how the English gain from the union beside being the leader of the thing.
Ye dae ken that Britannia is that place that lays to the south of Hadrian's wall? It was the name given from the Romans to that part of this island. North of that was called Caledonia. You are as much British as you are French. Meaning, you're not at all. You're Scottish, Caledonia a child of Alba. If you don't like it though you do have the freedom to go and be British in Britannia. Peace.
Firstly I don't think we are parasites, just praying on the tax money from England. We are a partner of all the nations. England cannot help that there are more of them than us. And as for saying we are not British because the Romans didn't conquer us, is really craping the stupid barrel. If you are going by what the Roman's called everyone. Then are they our real master's still? This is the problem with the SNP idiot's. They love to come up with really dumb stuff like in the comments. Instead of admitting that Scotland has become a great nation, all while part of the UK. We have been world leaders in many fields, all due to our British partnership. But they want to throw that away for some stupid argument about things over 300 years ago. You all say you want democracy. Well except the result of our ONCE IN A GENERATION vote. And shut up!
It is only here in Scotland that we pirouette on the head of a pin over patriotism and nationalism. Who else have you ever met who boasted: "I love my Country but don't want it to govern itself, I much prefer it to be in a minority in another parliament where it can always be outvoted and where parties we don't support will dictate our budget and policies. I don't think my country should have independence because it really wouldn't be able to do the job properly" Most foreign listeners would reply: Then it's not your Country at all. You can't care enough about it to call it your Nation. You may call yourself Scottish but you are in fact British. Britain is your Country. The problem is Britain is not a Country it's a geographical location, therefore you are no real Scot... I don't mind you born and bred in Scotland preferring a Parliament based in England running your Country, its fine you prefer your political parties registered in England, and detest the parties registered in Scotland. I have no problem with you being happy that a Country England making up 84% of the UK population deciding what political party governs over us, or deciding if we are European or not, I don't mind if you get your information from the 37 Tabloids, BBC/ITV and Sky all based down South, but what I can't stand is you basically English disguised under the fake British Identity claiming you know or care what's best for Scotland. That is just a LIE.
@@Randomstuffs261 The UK is made up of 4 Countries, England makes up 85% of the UK population, 2 of those Countries voted to remain and the other 2 voted to leave, let's throw in Gibraltar who voted remain, did you know even if Wales had voted to remain the result would have remained the same. I don't feel we are a family of Nations as when it comes to General elections and constitutional matters the other 3 Countries may as well not turn up to vote as England will determine our direction. That's not England's fault just solely because of the population size. I am completely confused at why Scots are content to simply go along with decisions made elsewhere against their will, for me it's like France having a referendum on the EU the leave vote wins and France says we are taking Belguim with us, that wouldn't be acceptable anywhere in the world but its fine for Scotland. We are not to be informed of the full content of the reports into how Brexit will affect our Country. We are not to be told what sum of money they are having to pay to leave the EU. They are giving us no say on the terms of the leaving. We are to be taken out of the single market. Our Government has not been consulted on one single aspect of their Brexit. A fair and equal Union? Just crap! and certainly can't be described as a democracy. So let’s just update ourselves: ENGLAND: voted Leave, getting what it wanted WALES: voted Leave, getting what it wanted NORTHERN IRELAND: voted Remain, getting special treatment GIBRALTAR: voted Remain, getting special treatment SCOTLAND: voted Remain, getting nothing Isn’t it great being an equal partner. You are no more than a servant for your corrupt elite London masters....nothing more
You are mistaken. Scotland had an extensive history of military alliances, treaties and cultural exchange with European states, notably France, and was trading in the continent since before the days of the Hanseatic League. In 1707, Scotland had already been an organised kingdom for 860+ years.

Seems plenty of Scots were more than willing to take their 30 pieces of silver. Or maybe they were just pragmatists and knew the benefits of Union outweighed all else. I see the nobility (still clinging to their titles despite their distaste for union) have much to say. Perhaps too much. Still, the money was too good to turn down. Patriotism eh!
