A bold tribute to the Scottish Bear and the Saltire of the Ancient Kingdom of Alba where Scotland, the northern third of the island of Great Britain and a nation of extraordinary natural beauty, fierce historical identity, and remarkable intellectual achievement, has expressed its national character through the Saltire, the white diagonal cross of St Andrew on a blue field that is the oldest national flag in Europe still in use, claimed to date from the 9th century when a cloud formation in the shape of a St Andrew's cross appeared over the Pictish and Scottish army of King Oengus before a decisive battle, and through the rich tradition of Highland culture, Clan heritage, and Celtic mythology that has made Scotland one of the most romanticized nations in the world, where the Scottish Highlands with their dramatic glens, lochs, and mountain peaks including Ben Nevis, the highest point in the British Isles, the ancient Caledonian Forest, and the legendary Loch Ness create a landscape of epic grandeur, where Scotland's Enlightenment produced Adam Smith, David Hume, James Watt, and James Clerk Maxwell, and where the Scottish bear, part of the rich heraldic tradition of Scottish clan symbols, speaks to the fierce independence and proud heritage of a nation that has maintained its distinct identity within and alongside the United Kingdom for over three centuries.
