What makes Scots and English different? I am asking seriously.
>same language (Gaelic doesn't count)
>same country since 1707
>same parliament till 2000?
>common colonial past (not counting Darien scheme)
What's the most imporatnt trait that separates them?

there's no such thing as "english made", it's all norman elites aka french and german aristocrats.

Scot means cattle in Russian.
Brit means "is shaved" in Russian.
That's the difference.

So the difference is that Scots were tattooing their fighting symbols, but Brits were just painting them?

Uh no Malcolm III was the first to attempt Norman governance and it's almost funny to see modern historians say that the leader of a country enacted a revolution

>After the The Battle of Stirling Bridge in 1297, the Scottish knight William Wallace was so enraged with the actions of the English that he ordered three of their commanders flayed and skinned alive, he then fashioned belts from their hides that he would wear for the remainder of his life

not much, in terms of governance scotland has more constitutional layers with scots law (but are still subject to the laws and parliament of the UK), a devolved scottish parliament, england has a million fucking ways you can divide the regions up and a million different types of local authority that nobody can keep track of whereas in scotland it's more sensible bureaucratically
in terms of culture it's 99% overlap, lots of people would claim that those in the north of england share more in common with those in scotland than those in the south of england, most of the grievances scottish people have with the whole of england are shared with northern england (in their case directed toward the south-east especially)
in terms of scenery england has much more liminal land, you're almost never more than 10 miles from a large town or city, whereas in scotland the country is quite clearly demarcated into the lowlands (basically an extension of england both culturally and visually), the central belt (more densely populated than most of england) and the highlands & islands (much more rural than anywhere in england)

The "lowlands" doesn't exist any really shows you know nothing

are you foreign? your grasp on the english language seems a bit tenuous and you're being needlessly antagonistic over something you've invented in your own head

Scotts are like Orcs and Brits are a mix of all the other races in LOTR.

They're different countries, an analogue might be like if Bohemia and Poland became one country in the medieval era and gradually Czech evolved into a funny sounding Polish
