England and Scotland
Two bordering countries part of a larger country called the United Kingdom, a country that has been pretty influential on the world over the past 300 years or so.
Both on the island of Great Britain, the ninth-biggest island in the world.
England and Scotland are the two most well-known and visited countries in the UK, and maybe by the end of this video you’ll have an opinion about which one you think is better.
A special shout out to Ralph from Osbers Gaming, who is from Scotland, for collaborating with me for this video. He did the history portion, in case you didn’t notice. Be sure to subscribe to Osbers Gaming! It was also great to meet him in person when we were in Edinburgh last spring. Oh yeah, my family and I actually went on vacation to both England and Scotland! A lot of the footage you saw was from stuff I shot while we were there. So which is better? England or Scotland? Let me know down below. Oh, and I also have an Edinburgh and Glasgow Compared video planned in the near future, so look for that.

Fun Fact, Scotland has its own (correction: criminal law) Supreme Court. The UK Supreme Court started in 2009, until then it was the House of Lords. Scotland had a proper Supreme Court first, so their court is still seperate. While the UK Supreme Court is from 2009, the building that houses it is much older. Also when i was there, there was a statue of George Washington across the street from it.

Alfred the Great claimed to be King of the English not England, the idea of England as Kingdom was gradual process and took very long time; he also did rule all of land that became England he shared it with Danelaw Kingdoms. King Author is likely a Myth but may have been based on a Romano-British Commander in Sub-roman Britian, who fought in the Battle of Mount Baden and defeated the Anglo-saxons.

one important thing to note: being pro-remain is not a "left-leaning" position, in fact, in the previous referendum in the 80s, the vast majority of left wing organizations wanted to leave - in short, being pro-remain is a distinctly CENTRIST position, whilst being pro-brexit is associated with being distinctly right wing or left wing

To an extent, though left wing support for Brexit was mostly a minority view. The Brexit vote is probably better seen through the lens of “pro-establishment” vs “antiestablishment” or even “open” vs “closed”. I think it was an event that challenged the idea of a left/right dichotomy.

@sebe2255 4 месяца назад

As a South African immigrant to England, I’ll shout out all my brothers and sisters in England and Scotland and the rest of the common wealth. I would say the so called rivalry is quite one sided, at least nowadays. The English were professionals at pissing off other countries back in the day and Scotland probably got the worst of that. These days I think the Scottish just hold a mild resentment towards England since a lot of people in England and the rest of the world unfairly view the United Kingdom and England as interchangeable with Scotland being just a small part of “England”. Similar I imagine to how Canadians resent being lumped in with their larger North American brothers, with the added factor of a lot big decisions for the United Kingdom being made by a government overwhelmingly dominated by another country. This leads the Scots to take immense pride in forming their own distinct identity.

I live in Central Scotland ( the area you highlighted on the map). We are not part of the metropolitan area for either Glasgow or Edinburgh. There are different definitions of what constitutes the Central Belt which is I think what' s causing the confusion - some would say it only applies to the metropolitan areas of Glasgow and Edinburgh but the map you have shown includes the more rural Stirlingshire and Clackmannanshire ( where I live). Large parts of this side of the Central Belt are rural or semi-rural (and hilly as well. Scotland from the Ochil Hills ( my neck of the woods) was largely Brythonic in the Dark Ages, as was the very North of England and Wales, thus the complex evolution of the language - and it's an hugely divisive subject as to whether Scots is a language or a dialect, but there certainly are a lot of accents - even in my smallish town😅 Re King Arthur, many parts of Britain claim him , but Ive never heard him described as Saxon. We dont even know if he was real. One of the earliest references to him is Y Gododdin, a Welsh poem about the Gododdin tribe of Southern Scotland. Surprised you didn't mention our proficiency in science and the number of inventors we have produced - James Watt, John Logie Baird, Alexander Graham Bell, to name but a few.

Southern English cod with overdone chips is awful to my taste. I once saw a fellow Bradfordian throw them back at at the proprietor, telling them to keep their mucky worm ridden cod and refried ruined chips. Some of the best I had were in Bruges, Belgium. The fish was on a wooden kebab stick and the chips were delicious. I discovered chips with mayonnaise from this too. You generally get offered mushy peas in England, though these are better with vinegar to emulsify them and mint sauce mixed in, served with a good warm pork pie. These days curry sauce is more popular at fish and chip shops, either fruity or "Irish" smooth. In Manchester they have chip shops, where fish is popular, but you also see a good selection of pies on offer. A Wigan kebab is a pie in a "barm", their word for bread cake. My family home town of Keighley calls a bread cake a "teacake" (as opposed to a current teacake). They call a fish cake, with fish and potato slices a "scone". It is not uncommon for folk to ask for "a scone in a teacake" which would sound barmy to folk elsewhere.
