WORLDGUIDE Introduction See Image Gallery Events Transport Money Essential Info RELATED Thorn Tree Forum Postcards Travel Links Honed by long competition with its English neighbours, buoyant Scotland has survived encroachment, brass-monkey weather and invasion by stand-up comedians. Its people are feisty, opinionated and fiercely loyal. The countryside is a wild, beautiful tumble of raw mountain peaks and deep glassy lakes. There's a plethora of tartan 'n' bagpipe beaten tracks across this land, but even in well-thumbed tourist hubs like Edinburgh, Glasgow and the Isle of Skye it's easy to veer off into one-of-a-kind adventures, usually involving extroverted locals. The brutal climate adds an edge to the whole experience.

But the battles weren't over. In 1715, disgruntled Scots rallied around James Stewart, the Catholic monarch who had been exiled to France. This first Jacobite rebellion fizzled before long, but it was followed in 1745 by another attempt, this time led by James' son Charles, popularly known as "Bonnie Prince Charlie." The Scottish forces seemed poised for victory at first, marching as far south as Derby, only to be dealt a decisive blow some months later at Culloden Moor, near Inverness. The defeat effectively ended hopes for an independent Scotland for the next 250 years.
Nevertheless, a strong patriotic feeling lingered. The Scots never gave up on independence and achieved restoration of their own parliament at the turn of the millennium. Whether complete autonomy ever will be achieved remains to be seen, but the Scottish Nationalist Party remains a strong third-party force continuing to work toward that goal.

Cindy Vallar Scotland: History and Clans
By Cindy Vallar
Originally written for GWN - October 1, 2001 Over a decade ago, I started to write a novel set in Scotland, but didn’t know much about the country’s history. Since then, I read many books on various aspects of Scotland with particular emphasis on the events of the Rising of 1745. I’ve also visited Scotland three times, the last in August 2001 to attend the international gathering of Clan Cameron at Achnacarry, the estate of the Cameron chief, Sir Donald Cameron of Lochiel. Space limitations prohibit me from writing a detailed summary on the history, clans, and culture of Scotland. What follows is a general overview with a listing of web sites where you will find more information. If you seek books on this country, check out my research page at My Research Page where I have a bibliography of the books I used in researching The Scottish Thistle (a romantic historical novel published by NovelBooks, Inc . in April 2002). You’ll also find photographs from my trips with brief insights into Scottish history and culture. History
The first people to leave clues of their stone-age existence lived in Scotland over 7,000 years ago. Evidence of the Romans can be found along the Antoine Wall. Near the end of the 4th century, four separate groups inhabited Scotland, which was called Alba: Picti, Angles, Britons, and Scots. St. Ninian established the first center of Christianity in 397 and over a century later, St. Columba arrived on Iona. During the 8th century, the Norse invaders came. They settled on the islands of Orkney and Shetland, many of the Western Isles, and the area known today as Caithness and Sutherland. They ceased to be a threat in 1263 when Alexander III defeated the Norse king at the Battle of Largs. After Kenneth Macalpine united the Scots and Picts, the lands of the Forth and Clyde became known as Scotia and he established his capital at Scone.

http://www.perthshire-scotland.co.uk/perth3.htm
Perthshire Scotland Towns Perth Scotland Guide Known to the Romans as Bertha from the Celtic ' Aber The ' meaning mouth of the Tay. The city has been a Royal Burgh since the 13thC and was a Royal residence throughout the middle ages. Perth is often refered to as the Ancient Capital of Scotland on this account. Nearby Scone is the ancient coronation site of Scottish monarchs. All kings and queens of Scotland having been crowned there up until the Union into the United Kingdom. Today the site is marked by the early 19thC Palace of Scone. In 1396 the Battle of the Clans took place on the North Inch of Perth. This was a gladiatorial fight to the death to settle a long running feud between the powerful Chattan and Mackay clans. 30 warriors from each formed before Robert III. All Mackays died, except one who swam the Tay, to the loss of 10 Chattans. Legend has it that the Chattans were a man short so a local saddler was paid to take the place. He survived, having joined the winning side! James I was murdered at Blackfriars in 1437. This was his favourite residence. When assassins burst into his bedroom he attempted to escape through a tunnel. Unfortunately he forgot that he had ordered the far end blocked by a grill. This had been fitted to prevent him losing tennis balls down the uncovered exit!
