Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
Such a parcel of rogues in a nation
Edit: down voted for quoting Robert Burns on r/Scotland. I guess some Scots have no pride in their Bard.
This event seems to be getting lots of videos and articles written about it recently. I've got multiple books on it and none say anything about 30 to 50 percent of the nation's wealth being used up in the venture. Probably more like 10 to 15 percent. Originally only 50 percent of the company board members were based in Scotland. A lot were Scots living in London and it even included English and a Jewish guy prior to King Billy throwing the spanner in the works with trade bans etc.
Ahh when rich scots lost money, and sold us into a union no one wanted for profit, not to mention the alien act was a kick when we were down forcing scotland to join.
I wonder is the Burma/Myanmar of this timeline would turn out?
