The Wars of Scottish Independence (ALL PARTS) - 1296-1328 & 1332-1357
♦Edward had accomplished little, and while David had kept his throne and his nation’s freedom, the disconnect between the Scots and the English would never be fully resolved. This war was over, but it wasn’t the first, and wouldn’t be the last. Nor would it be Scotland’s final bid for independence…

Wow. As a Turk, I had heard of the Scotland-England rivalry, but I did not know it was this competitive. I thought it was based more on one-sided English superiority. I congratulate the Scots for their honorable struggle.
You should look up information about the stuarts, Scottish kings who ended up on the throne of england, really interesting
Indeed!
as much as Overly Sarcastic Productions can be offputting to watch at times, I can't help but admit they got the best perspective on the Scotland/England rivalry.
Ironically it was actually Scottish kings who took over england
@@them4601 they were mixed english and scottish if you look at it
The animations and story telling in this channel are amazing. A true inspiration to small history youtubers like myself
Another great video the wait was worth it
I love how he’s doing an accent every time he says scots scottish and scotland😂
Scotland: exists England: it's free real estate Scotland: lol no England: 😢
It’s All Gaelic
Brilliant video, absolutely brilliant
Well condensed I have to say!
43:30 "was frankly" I see what you did there :D
Amazing video thanks again ❤
"They may take our lives! But they can never take our freedom!"- William Wallace
Declaration of Arbroath 1320. For as long as a hundred of us remain alive, we will never on any conditions be subjected to the lordship of the English; for it is not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we fight, but for freedom alone, which no good man gives up except with his life'.
Braveheart was a pathetic work of fiction, and the declaration of Arbroath was made in loyalty to the then Scottish crown, long since past those days, better together has been proven time and again. 🏴🏴🇬🇧
Fantastic video and I am totally fascinated with the history of Scotland which is one of my favourite ever countries despite I am part English through my ancestries,good friends!!!LONG LIVE SCOTLAND!!!🏴
It’s 48 mins long… it was posted like 17 mins ago you have commented 7 minutes ago how can you come to that conclusion? 😅
@@paulwoods3078his name is also deepak ? How is he English but I as an African I agree.. love Scotland
@@paulwoods3078 he likes scotland he obviously knows the history already and decided to give kudos regardless of watching the entire thing. Scotland is great!!
@@paulwoods3078Haha!!!Actually,after the video was being uploaded but I am not sure for how many minutes after that,I did comment and the conclusion is a fact where my great great grandfather was an Englishman from my mother's side who worked as a British army,good friend!!!🏋🏻♂️
Love Scotland, from England!
On Medieval Scottish warfare I strongly recommend Schwerpunkt's videos series
Shut it. Bot.
Is there a vid about the Serbian Empire that include Greece? Did they agree, or how did that happen?
Make a video over Indian sultanates and Mughal Empire
Why can't I watch the Jacobite rising, this video is now for sponsors. You said that sponsors get access to videos before everyone else, but you didn’t say that some videos are exclusively now only for sponsors!😔😭
Is the playback volume low..?
Good video but should have added the odds the Scottish 🏴 were fighting against! Stirling brig was 10 to 1 in the English favour!!! And a lot of Scottish clans were also fighting for the English along with the Welsh and many more
Great video, my father is named Robert Bruce McNichol, from the Isle of Skye and Stornoway Castle. His birth certificate is in Carlisle England, and "Sghorra Breac"! to ALL
Got any vidros with a brief description of the last 500 years ? For travelers seeking to be culturally sensitive ?
@TheMelbournelad What exactly was the circumstance there with England being conquered by Scotland?!
Such a series of unfortunate circumstances makes me consider foul play.
Love how Scone Abbey is labelled as Stone Abbey in the map 😂
They probably thought an abbey named after a bakery product was an error!
next video: all wars everywhere, ever
I'm a very British Scot and proud of it. I need no Frenchman or any other nationality to tell me what is best, as for English people making racist comments about Scots, well I served in the British army and again proud to have done so for my queen and country, unless you have done so, I suggest you look at the sacrifices made by Scots in service. A quarter of a million in two world wars from Glasgow alone. Show some respect.
👍🇬🇧👏👏
Well said sir thank you for your service 🇬🇧
Esco tilled land vs angled land
I traced my ancestry DNA to glasgow Scotland, to a man named John De Glasgow to the 1250 , 12th century, he was alive during the greatest king Scotland ever seen! Robert De Bruce
😂
I mean at end of the day the Scots conquered England by 1700
Did they though? Did they?
@@sebe2255 yep
@@TheMelbournelad Least delusional Scot
@@sebe2255 actually I think my ancestral background is Danelaw
@@TheMelbournelad I mean it might be a tiny part, but the Danelaw was absorbed into England in the 9th century. They definitely no longer exist as a distinct ethnicity, and they haven’t for a thousand years. Your ancestral background is definitely more British/Anglo-Saxon by now
Scotland Forever!
Robert the Bruce and other lord was just a cowards. William fight for Scottland without the help of these cowards. Because they know if they win the war Sir William will be the King of Scotland. So these coward playef Neutral and wait for the throne to be given to them if England won. Imagine if Robert The Bruce and othet Lords help Sir William? Im a Filipino and I love Scottland. And I love Sir William Wallace. Damn that was brave! ❤
When you play the Game of Thrones, you win or die
Long live Scotland. Greatest country in history 💙🤍
As long as the Stone of Destiny sits in London, the Scots shall never be free.
It was returned to Scotland in 1996 to Edinburgh castle, and now sits in Perth where it belongs.
It’s just as well the stone of destiny has been in Edinburgh since 1996 and being moved up to Perth this year.
OUTSTANDING GENTLEMAN BLOODY fantastic
now all we got was Nicola sturgeon
For all their talk of honour and chivalry, these medieval lords and knights were nothing more than greedy, scheming snakes. The lot of them. Being honourable is a bit like heterosexuality. If you constantly have to speak about it, changes are you're compensating for something.
Scotland had the chance to vote for independence and said no 😮.Theres a lot of people in Scotland who are more British than the English...William Wallace would turn in his grave.
No he wouldn't, he wasn't a rebel, he was a Scottish Royalist and would respect people's loyalty to the crown.
Great video, would have sounded better narrated by Liam Neeson 😁
Türkçe altyazı nerede?
Edward the 2nd not get killed by his own nobleman ?
17:35 NOOOOOOOO!!!!!
YES! LET MY SCOTTISH OBEY THE KING, SO NO ONE CAN BE TERRORISTS AGAINST OUR BELOVED MONARCH!
Free Scotland
We are free ya muppet
🇬🇧🏴🏴
Scotland and France always had an issue with England and made the oldest standing alliance, the Auld Alliance 🏴♥️🇫🇷 Gum bi sinn nar caraidean gu bràth!
The Auld alliance is not a standing alliance, it was formally dissolved in 1560 by the treaty of Edinburgh. It would have been the oldest alliance had it not been dissolved but as it was, the oldest surviving alliance is that between England and Portugal, that was never repudiated.
Scots have fought the French as fellow Brits more than they haven't as Scots
It's only pathetic SNP supporters that mix English with Gaelic. And you look like a bawbag doing it. WATP 🇬🇧 🏴
We must Support The Independence of England from Scotland.👌
Wales isnt England
why didnt edward just amalgamate scotland into england instead of choosing someone for the scottish crown. its what i do in medieval 2.
I agree. The Scots are still not independent, and I doubt that full independence will really be achieved at any point in the future. Just from the standpoint of population and military power alone, England holds the upper hand and will continue to hold the upper hand should any conflict arise. And I mean this not just in the case of Scotland, but all of the Celtic peoples as well. The English outnumber the Celts combined, and the Celts would be hard-pressed to stand victorious against the English. And furthermore, why is the use of Gaelic and Welsh on the wane with all three of them?! Isn't language also a means by which national and ethnic identity is defined?! If the English language is spoken by the majority with all three peoples, doesn't that show where matters stand within the populace when it comes to separation and/or independence? And in regards to Ireland, part of it is still under English hegemony due to ethnic, national and sectarian politics, and who knows if full separation and/or independence will occur and take place!!!
You're assuming that Scots and Welsh have to militarily fight for their independence. That's a bit of a stretch, although not entirely an impossible scenario. It's more likely that they'll secede when they see that there are greater benefits to being independent and in the EU, than being shackled by Westminster and an increasingly irrelevant England.
@@Emanon...It is absolutely a stretch and an impossible scenario. There won’t be civil war over this lmao Ya’ll need to play less war games
Next one 2030 where everyone is in jail for hate crime
They defeated us, but it was all for the best.
Scotland had a queen named Yolanda? 😂
BRAVEHEART !! a movie 1 million times better than all Monty Pythons!!
Braveheart was absolute pish.
Soar Alba🏴🏴
Ah, a snp, jacobite waarmer.
Most of us scots are proud brits 🇬🇧
First
Longshanks did nothing wrong...
The future of Scotia and is sharia anyway.
King of Scots, not Scotland.
As the English people have always said… if you really want independence, let the English vote on it 👋🏻😂 They know they’d have to join the EU where they’ll be in another union with even less representation hence why it’s all just noise about independence and never any real action
ingland must be diveded into some independent countrys.its so injustice that england conquered wales,scotland and irland.
👉 Must Support The Freedom of Scotland . 👉 Free Scotland from England Movement .
Decent video but I'm not to happy about you labelling Wales as England 🤣
Wales at the time was annexed into the Englands territory, and still technically is
@@TheScotlanderwe ain’t in England
We’re not. But still to this day the English treat us like we’re their back garden. Independence is needed. 🏴
@@alynwillams4297 yea I agree we do need it 🏴
Hahahah and they still are not independent
The Scots are revolting
👉 We must Support The Independence of Scotland from England .
Ah yes supporting conflict and differences in 2024 between fellow brothers and sisters. Hey why not??? Let's disband all regions and separate all countries in Europe in small counties that fight each other like in medieval ages. Nothing sounds better as progress than that.. right? You-know-what? Let's actually revert to stone age. That is smarter...
Why? They are stronger together than separate entities.
@@richardevans9875exactly, thats why
This is just revenge for Sykes picot
@@richardevans9875 i was sarcastic btw.... i do not wish for western countries to divide...
One of the biggest if not biggest fights for independence belongs to Korea, they've been invades for centuries on every corner by so many groups its laughable and they still came out independent
Amazing video thanks again ❤
