In this paper the political, economic and religious aspects, which led to the Act of Union in 1707, are exposed. In addition to that the consequences of the union after 1707 will be analyzed in order to show the profits and losses for Scotland. By the different aspects the events of the time are analyzed and hence a possible takeover by the English is determined.
The English Parliament united with the Scottish Parliament by the Treaty of Union in 1707. The Union of Parliaments was a moment full of changes for Scotland. Economics, religion as well as politics of Scotland in many respects had to adjust to England. The question we consequently need to ask ourselves is, whether the events of the union can be described as a takeover? Was the union with the English Parliament avertable or could Scotland have endured without England?
