In this country the Dunblane massacre never occurred and there was a much higher american influence on Scotland.Due to this the country has a gun culture similar to that of the USA.Covid also had a much bigger impact on Scotland making the country alot more anti England.During colonisation the Jacobites fled to French Canada where  until the 7 years war had a puppet kingdom.Throughout the decades the Jacobite Kings would establish small puppet kingdoms like that.They did this in areas with large populations across the world especially when colonys often switched hands.As such the Jacobite movement never truly ended and once the Scottish Parliament was formed around the 1960s they gained power and support.This meant that nationalism had arrived much earlier giving time for a more extensive Scottish government to be established and proved.
