    Very nice. Scotland and Hungary have historic links dating back to Saint Margaret, Queen of Scotland (born in Hungary). There is also a Church of Scotland in Budapest (built for the Scottish workers on the Chain Bridge in the 1840s) and the Anglican (Episcopal) church in Budapest is also named after St Margaret of Scotland. There is also a very good Scottish pub in Budapest called the Caledonia.

    Hello, I am your music fan living in Korea. I've been interested in folk music for a long time, and I've heard many songs, but you're the first person to sing the characteristics of folk songs by country. It's great to be able to feel the peculiarities of each country in folk songs, and it's also influenced by my imagination. Thanks to you, I listen to your music yesterday and today😄

      Annyong ha say yoe! I am from Scotland and I lived in Korea from 2003 to 2005. I knew a Korean woman from Seoul called sunju who married a Scotsman. She teaches foreigners Korean. When i was in korea the Koreans would tell me of their discomfort with American soldiers in Korea and being too closely identified with America. I told them the last time Scotland was independent Scotland relied on the french for protection. Like korea scotland was a mountainous country on the margins of her own continent with a powerful neighbour and needing a strong foreign ally.

    Ye Jacobites by name lend an ear, lend an ear
    Ye Jacobites by name lend an ear
    Ye Jacobites by name your faults I will proclaim
    Your doctrines I must blame, you shall hear, you shall hear
    Your doctrines I must blame, you shall hear.
    What is right and what is wrong by the law, by the law
    What is right and what is wrong by the law
    What is right and what is wrong, a short sword and a long
    A weak arm and a strong for to draw, for to draw for to draw
    A weak arm and a strong for to draw.
    Ye Jacobites by name lend an ear, lend an ear
    Ye Jacobites by name lend an ear
    Ye Jacobites by name your faults I will proclaim
    Your doctrines I must blame, you shall hear, you shall hear
    Your doctrines I must blame, you shall hear.
    What makes heroic strife famed afar, famed afar?
    What makes heroic strife famed afar?
    What makes heroic strife, to whet the assassin's knife
    Or hunt a parent's life with bloody war, bloody war
    Or hunt a parent's life with bloody war.
    Ye Jacobites by name lend an ear, lend an ear
    Ye Jacobites by name lend an ear
    Ye Jacobites by name your faults I will proclaim
    Your doctrines I must blame, you shall hear, you shall hear
    Your doctrines I must blame, you shall hear.
    Then leave your schemes alone in the state, in the state
    Then leave your schemes alone in the state
    Then leave your schemes alone, adore the rising sun
    And leave a man alone to his fate, to his fate
    Oh leave a man alone to his fate.

    Nearly everyone outside the British Isles think England/UK/Britain are all the same thing and when you tell them Scotland is part of the UK/Britain they get confused and start asking if it's also part of England. Britishness also means different things in different parts of the UK, ask a protestant Scot or Northern Irishman what Britishness means they'll tell you the completely opposite from someone who is Welsh or English.

    Вам пою.
    Якобиты на словах,
    Обличу я вас в грехах
    И ученье ваше в прах
    Разобью.
    Что есть правда? Что есть ложь?
    Где закон? Где закон?
    Что есть правда? Что есть ложь?
    Где закон?

    Длинный меч ли изберешь
    Иль короткий вырвешь нож
    Из ножон?

    Что назвать? Что назвать?
    Героической борьбой
    Что назвать?
    Героической борьбой
    Звать ли распри и разбой,
    Где в отца готов любой
    Нож вогнать?
    Хватит происков, ей-ей!
    В этот век, в этот век.
    Хватит происков, ей-ей,
    В этот век.
    Хватит происков, ей-ей.

    If you listen to the words carefully, you will hear it is an anti-Jacobite song. The battle of Culloden was the climax of the Jacobite uprising of 1746. By that time Scotland and England had united to form Great Britain and the battle was about who would be king of Great Britain - the Stuarts or the Hanoverians. It was not about political independence.

    To Preston then they came, in a Rout;

    To England then they went, as bold, as bold,
    To England then they went, as bold;
    To England then they went, and Carlisle they ta'en't,
    The Crown they fain would ha'en't, but behold.

    No battle they will stent, for to die.
    They turned from that Place, and they ran, and they ran,
    They turned from that Place, and they ran;
    They turned from that Place as the Fox, when Hounds do chace.
    They tremble at the Name, CUMBERLAN'.
    To Scotland then they came, when they fly, when they fly,
    To Scotland then they came, when they fly,
    To Scotland then they came, and they robb'd on every Hand,
    By Jacobites Command, where they ly.
    When Duke William does command, you must go, you must go;
    When Duke William does command, you must go;
    When Duke William does command, then you must leave the Land,
    Your Conscience in your Hand like a Crow.
    Tho' Carlisle ye took by the Way, by the Way;
    Tho' Carlisle ye took by the Way;
    Tho' Carlisle ye took, short Space ye did it Brook,

    Fergus. Many Scottish historians now question that. There is absolutely no evidence of any mass movemenet and certainly no evidence of mass displacement of original Britons in Argyl. Some claim that it is probably that there was no significant coming over from Ireland (bar Fergus moving his centre) and that the Epidii of the area were possibly already Gaels. In other words it is possible that the seaboard area was already a pan-Gaelic cultural area and that there was no need for mass movements

    Actually Highland 'clans' (the very term is dubious!) were also split - Campbells for example were strongly pro-Hanoverian. The political (as opposed to personal) Union came about because a) Scotland was bankrupt and b) most Protestant Scots were wary of their Catholic compatriots, and feared a Catholic monarch. I speak as one who had (mercenary) ancestors who fought for Stuart and for Hanover.

      Ally Stewart Stuart is French actually - Stewart is English from Steward - Oliver Cromwell's mother was a member of that particular Anglo-Saxon 'clan' (the word 'clan' of course derives ultimately from the Latin stamma, like the German Stamm which has a similar meaning - whatever: the whole concept is bogus 19th century codswallop).By the way, if you wish to be pedantic one could refer to the dynasty as Stiùbhard - which is a Gaelicisation of an English name.

      😂this is a rewriting of history...
      The political union came about :
      a) To commonly exploit North America.
      b) Scottish opponents were suppressed by Hanoverian agents.
      Very much doubt that the Scots at the start of the 17th century would have voted for it without extra legal assassinations and promise of North America 🌎

    @halifaxtanning Of course there are similarities (we are neighbours) and of course people have moved. Especially Scots moving to Ulster in the 17thC and mass Irish immigration to Scotland at a later date. The fact remains though there is no hard arcaheological evidence for a mass movement from Ireland to Argyl in 500AD or there abouts.

    from Ireland. In truth we don't actually know. We do know that the base of our (Scottish) ancestry comes from the inhabitants of Scotland though and not anywhere else. Though there have been many influxes including Irish, Anglians, Norse, Flemish, English, Normans plus of course all the later arrivals.

      You are correct, against what the others are saying. Robert Burns did indeed tweak the original lyrics in 1791 to have a more humanitarian view against war. His intention on the song itself, whether as an anti-Jacobite or not is ambiguous in itself, but Burns was a complex fellow. He saw both sides, and entrenched himself on both sides of the camp.
      With all that said, one thing is absolutely clear. He was a patriot.

The Celts were called the Gaels if they lived in the British Isles and Gauls if they lived on Contental Europe. The Ilirians from my understanding where there before the Celts entered the area from western europe.
