Scottish people

"The Scottish people (Scots: Scots Fowk; Scottish Gaelic: Albannaich, Old English: Scottas) or Scots are a nation and ethnic group native to Scotland. Historically, they emerged from an amalgamation of two Celtic-speaking peoples, the Picts and Gaels, who founded the Kingdom of Scotland (or Alba) in the 9th century. Pictish-Gaels (or Albannaich) were then displaced by Viking settlers to the north and west, who in turn became Norse-Gaels, and, becoming Gaelicised by the 13th century, left a Norse legacy in places such as the Hebrides.

To the south, they also emerged from the Angles, who subdued the neighbouring Celtic-speaking Cumbrians into an Anglo-Saxon kingdom, and settled what would become the south-east of Scotland. Later, the Anglian Kingdom of Northumbria was divided, with its northern lands and Germanic-speaking peoples becoming a part of Medieval Scotland. In the 12th century, the Norman conquest of England brought migration, with an Anglo-Norman ruling-class further populating Scotland, and particularly the Lowlands, with Normans, Flemish, Bretons, French and Anglo-Saxons during the Davidian Revolution." - (en.wikipedia.org 06.08.2021)
