Scotland is a part of The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland (The U.K)
The U.K. is known to be
イギリス in Japan, but there is no such a country.  England is only a part of the U.K.
There are still various kinds of conflict between Scotland and England, and also among Scottish people themselves!  E.g. Ethnic (Scottish people are predominantly Celtic), Religion (We study in the World History Class!), Scottish Independence from the U.K.?, etc




What's Scotland is famous for
    Scottish Whisky: The taste of Single Molt Whisky varies across different regions where Whisky distillery is located. Each taste represents a unique characteristic of their brand.
    Nessie: A Mystic Dinosaur Monster 
Nessie in Loch Ness near Inverness (North Part of Scotland, Very beautiful city)
    Kilt: Some people may describe men wearing a skirt, but this traditional cloth is called "Kilt"; not skirt.
