Scottish History - Fascinating History of Scotland From Beginning to the End A sense of poetic irony registers when one learns that Scotland has never won a major military battle when the odds were in their favor.[1] In 1513, the largest Scottish army to ever invade England was defeated by a significantly smaller English army at Flodden Field. In only two hours, the Scots lost ten thousand men. History repeated itself in 1542, when a Scottish army of 15,000 men was defeated by only 3,000 English soldiers. Despite their much smaller numbers, the English managed to take 1,200 Scottish men as prisoners. This humiliating defeat eventually contributed to the demise of King James V. The massive global success of Braveheart, Mel Gibson’s Oscar-winning blockbuster epic medieval war film, has helped perpetuate a seductive image of the Scottish as being valiant underdogs, possessors of a brand of earthly pride that serve them well in conflicts with their more powerful southern neighbor. Historical facts do corroborate this impression. When they were pitted against English forces that easily outranked them in numbers and technological sophistication, the Scottish prevailed. William Wallace’s victory at the Battle of Stirling Bridge in 1297 is probably the best example of Scottish resilience against the odds. Robert the Bruce has a similar claim to fame with the Battle of Bannockburn seventeen years later when his men defeated an English army that was three times as massive. To be continued...
