very patriotic but the football teams are rubbish...not that many people say "aboot" and only a few areas say "eh" like some parts of edinburgh and aberdeen. the best spoken english is actually in scotland..we were forced to speak english when we were taken over by an English king and we were beaten to try and take all the scottish out of us...in schools we were beaten until we spoke proper english and if we didn't we were punished harshly.
"see you jimmy" "eh...nah" haggis kilts tammys, tartan, ill educated.. all completely wrong..all based on lies when scotland was occupied by an english king..lies and rumours were started to ensure english people would stay afraid of the "savage scottish people

Everyone knows what Scotland is. (especially if you could be bothered to read the definitions) But I just want to say, we're (yes, I'm Scottish) not all a bunch of English hating rejects who prance around in kilts and say ''hoots'' a lot more than your average Joe. Except maybe the highlands, well, not really. Although...
I'm going to Scotland, land of Scots, and sometimes Scotch, no it wasn't named after Scot but the Scotty dog probably was, speaking of dogs you can get a highland terrier and in the highlands you can get Scottish hillbilys (I'm being very anti-highland today)

Scotland is a country of true pride! any Scot knows that Scotland is a country which is beautiful and patriotic. 90% of Scots do hav a somewhat hateful streak in them but, that is directed to the English , and perhaps French n Germans.
We may not be the best at sports but, think of all the great inventors! We invented so many things eg the telephone , the steamboat etc etc.
However , Scotland holds the record for highest scoring international lacrosse match , when the Scots defeated Germany 34-3 in 1994.SUCK THAT YA ENGLISH PRICKS! WHAT HAPPENED IN 1966???
And finally ,Scots are loved the world over , for the hate for the english.I must say though , when i enter an american restauraunt , in eg Florida , the waitress will ask , "are you english" , i will reply , "no scottish" , and everytime this happens , the waitress breaths a huge sigh or relief
great scots: John Logie Baird , Billy Connolly , James Watt , Ally McCoist , Jim Baxter , Dennis Law , John Greig , Rod Stewart (if you want 2 count him as being scottish) William Wallace , Robert the Bruce and finally THE PROCLAIMERS
