In this video

we will take a look at

10 cool things about Scotland.

Let’s take a look

Number 1:

The unicorn

Scotland’s official animal is the unicorn.

It symbolizes grace, purity

healing and happiness.

It is strange that a nation would pick

a mythical creature

but because of Scotland’s rich history

legends and other things

it’s an appropriate choice.

Number 2:

inventions

Some of the world’s favorite things

have emerged from the minds of Scottish inventors.

Among them are famous inventions like Television

Telephone and Penicillin.

Number 3:

High education rules

Approximately 45 percent of the country’s people

aged between 25 and 64

have engaged in some sort of formal education

following high school.

That makes it the most educated nation in Europe.

Number 4:

Red heads and blue eyes

Scotland is where the red heads with blue eyes are.

Roughly 40 percent of the population

in southeast Scotland

are the carriers of the redhead gene.

Around 70 percent of Scots have blue eyes.

Number 5:

the shortest flight

The shortest scheduled flight in the world

is 2.5 KM long from Westray

to Papa Westray in the Orkney islands of Scotland.

The journey takes one minute and 14 seconds.

Number 6:

the Scottish eat dangerously

Their national dish is Haggis

and among its ingredients

is a mixture of vital sheep Organs

and a dash of cayenne pepper or zing.

Number 7:

The Scottish invented golf

An early version of the game

first started in the 15th century.

Sand traps were part of the course even then.

Number 8:

The Bagpipe

It is a myth that

Scotland invented the kilt and the bagpipe.

Kilts originated from Ireland

and the bagpipe from the Roman empire.

Number 9:

Scottish people in America

There are as many Scottish people

living in North America as in Scotland.

They are taking over North America.

Not in a political way clearly

but the number of people of Scottish descent

living in the US and Canada

is almost equal to the amount

currently residing in their native country.

Number 10:

they’re loyal to their legends

The Scottish Highlands

is home to the infamous Loch Ness Monster.

The possibility that

there really is a Loch Ness Monster

has been kept alive for around 1500 years.

Written references date back to the mid 500s.

Hope you enjoyed it.
