Scotland doesn’t deserve that kind of respect. I feel like it’s a stretch to call Scotland a victim of the English the same way Ireland was, Scotland was a knowing and willing participant in most of England’s crimes

I don't recall anyone in the UK being violently cleared from their homes and land in the name of ~~sheep~~ profit by Americans.

What about this: Scotland gets to leave the UK. England is then annexed by Scotland but all of this new greater Scotland becomes an Irish colony ruled from Dublin
