I think even though there arn't really that many specific scottish epople that are famous, i think Scottish Culture is still really famous, and known round the world. Certainly more than the Welsh.

It doesnt count as a Scottish invention if you invent it in another country. Inventions count for the country they are INVENTED IN, not for the country that the person was BORN IN.

Scottish people have a very liberal idea of what is Scottish. lol.

Lol.. no we don't. It's really quite simple; if you are born in Scotland, then your Scottish. Bell wa born, raised and educated in Scotland therefore he is a Scottish inventor.

Yes, but he became a Canadian citizen, and had a home in Canada, but he INVENTED the telephone in America, at Boston University. That's why the telephone is an American invention.

But i do love the Scots, my Mom's side of the family is Scottish, so i won't argue. :P

Scottish isn't a nationality. Scots are citizens of the United Kingdom, their nationality is British. (for now)

W!ell, not according to the UN. Never seen a Scottish chair at the UN... Maybe Salmon can fix that.

I think you should be proud to be British though. I love California, But i call myself an American before i call myself a Californian.
