Scotland - Geography, Culture and Economy

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿A country on the north-western edge of Europe. A mix of islands, highlands and lowlands. A country of romance and unique traditions, very different from their imperial neighbour to the south. A nation of three different languages, its culture has survived and flourished across the millennia, delivering some of the greatest and most innovative minds found anywhere. This is the land of whiskey and haggis, Nessie and oil, golf, tartan and bagpipes. This land could only be Scotland.

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿In this second part of a 2-part special Scotland documentary we look first at the physical geography of Scotland; its situation within Europe and the British Isles, the broad division of islands, highlands and lowlands, the climate of Scotland and the types of natural vegetation found here.

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿The human geography of Scotland is a mix of English and Celtic (Gaelic) influences, with English, Scots and Scottish Gaelic languages being spoken today. The largest city is Glasgow, followed by the capital Edinburgh and then Aberdeen.

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿Scotland lies as an autonomous country within the United Kingdom, having its own parliament in Edinburgh and able to enact its own laws in certain areas not reserved by the UK government. The Flag of Scotland is the cross of St Andrew, a white saltire on a blue field, while the coat of arms of Scotland is a red lion rampant on a golden shield.

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿The Scottish economy is an advanced mixed economy typical of highly developed nations. Oil and whiskey (whisky) are its chief exports.

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿Scottish culture is very rich, being a blend of English and Gaelic (Celtic) cultures. It has 3 notable UNESCO World Heritage Sites - Skara Brae, The Old and New Towns of Edinburgh, and the Forth Bridge. Bagpipes and tartan play a central role in ceremonial music and dress within Scotland, while the haggis and deep fried "anything" feature on the Scottish menu. The Loch Ness monster ("Nessie") has been a legend for centuries but documentary proof of its existence has eluded all.

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿Scotland is the origin for an astonishing number of innovations, such as the steam engine, antibiotics, refrigeration and colour photography. Famous and notable Scots include Adam Smith, Robert Burns, Robert Louis Stevenson, Sir Anthony Conan Doyle, Sean Connery, Billy Connolly and James Clerk Maxwell.
