Who have they been fighting to avoid invasion exactly? >Fuck this sounds familiar right now Maybe you read it in a history textbook.
- 52-6F-62 2y agoHmm, no you misunderstand. Scotland was consumed by monied interests from across the water long ago. Now there’s just scattered populations, many of us dispossessed of our ancestral homes and not all by choice. The past doesn’t vanish because of what Rome and its inheritors accords as history. Some of us have long memories. It is particularly a prescient notion because I happen to be living in Canada. If you’ve read the news you should understand what I’m saying.
- jodrellblank 2y agoDidn't Scotland try to make an empire in Eastern Canada, eastern USA, Africa, and Panama, then bankrupt themselves and agree to the Act of Union with England making Great Britain?
