Abstract

This chapter covers the long history of the Scottish military within the British Army during the Second World War. It elaborates on the disbanding of the Scottish regiments as the British Empire retired west of Suez in the 1960s. Early generations of Nationalists had been global Scots who served the British Empire and became the first of Scotland's regionalization within the United Kingdom. Moreover, the increase in Scottish emigration overseas marked the final ages of the Empire and Scotland's natural increase in population. The chapter looks into the legacy of the Second World War and the Battle of Britain. In relation to the Scottish National Party's effort to establish a separate Scottish state, the constitutional instability of Scotland gradually developed over the last fifty years despite being a product of the postwar reconceptualization of Great Britain.
