they have gone back and forth a few times but the current state of affairs is a result of Scotland putting too much money into an attempt to establish an American colony going bankrupt and joining with England for a bailout, they were equal partners in the colonization of Ireland, India and Africa, and the industrial revolution begun in the highlands of Scotland with mills constructed the cheap loans provided by colonialism in India and the opium trade. if u look at the history of the British empire a lot of the people who made the empire u know the generals the colonial governors the bankers the "explorers" were Scottish, and generally Scottish people didnt go to the colonies as bonded laborers like Irish people.

idk it seems kinda tasteless to talk about Scottish "independence" in the context of Ireland while northern Ireland and Wales are still occupied.
