Scotland Forever!
On this day in 1706 the Treaty of Union between Scotland and England was ratified in the Scottish Parliament. The Treaty decreed that the two countries, at the time still considered by many to be arch enemies, should become one kingdom, with the same monarch, and equal trade and economic rights. It was (and is) an illegal treaty, unsigned by His Majesty, King James VII, in exile from the Kingdom.
