Why Scotland is not part of England
Scotland is not part of England. Both are two separate parts of the “United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland”.
–
- The country “United Kingdom” is made up of the parts of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
- Great Britain refers to the geographic island with the parts of England, Scotland and Wales.
- The kingdoms of Scotland and England were long independent or partially independent of each other.
- There were conflicts between the two kingdoms for several centuries, until 1707, with the ‘Act on Union’, the parliaments of London and Edinburgh merged to form the Kingdom of Great Britain.
- Today, especially after Brexit, calls for independence from the UK are growing louder in Scotland. The majority of Scots voted against Brexit at the time.
