To Whit - Empire's charactarisation of Scotland is faulty. It reads the Kurdish experience in the Middle East onto Scotland. The comparison might be applied to Wales or pre-Republican Ireland but not to Scotland after the Act of Union.
The essential point is that Scotland chose to merge with England -it was negotiated and agreed to Scotland's benefit.
