Thread drift, but why not?: The 45 wasn't an uprising against England by nationalist Scots. It was a rebellion against the Hanoverian monarchy by supporters of the exiled Stuarts. That was a division of loyalties that ran through both Scotland and England.

If the rebellion had succeeded there would have been a great many English people who were delighted, and a great many Scots who would have been appalled.

Civil Wars frequently get rewritten in after years to make it all seem much simpler than it was. (For example the one in the American Colonies that resulted in independence - a result which at the time many people in Britain welcomed, and many people in America deeply regretted.)

Here's a powerful song that definitely makes me a bit uneasy, and it reflects the same kind of messy quality in history that gets ironed out - it's an Afrikaans song which is apparently very popular among many South Africans at present - YouTube coming up - De la Rey.

It's a pretty good song in it's way , and a very effective video - that's the trouble, in the light of the nature of a lot of the comments it has evoked on that YouTube page.
