SCOTLAND
A lot of people think that Scotland is a part of England but this is untrue. Scotland is, in fact, a part of Great Britain. It is governed from London but in many ways it is a separate nation. It has its own capital city, Edinburgh, its own laws and its own stamps. It even has its own language, Gaelic, spoken now by only a few people on the islands. There are only about five million Scots, and most of them live in the southern half of country called Lowlands, where the major cites are situated. But most holiday visitors to Scotland go to the Highlands because of the high mountains and deep valleys, clean rivers and cold lochs. The Highlands are home to many rare birds and animals, like the golden eagle and the wildcat, which are found nowhere else in Britain. It is a lonely, wild and empty land.
