The relationship between Scotland and Europe is quite fascinating. Historically, Scotland has had strong ties with various European countries, and this connection continues today. For instance, nearly 250,000 Europeans currently call Scotland home, contributing to its vibrant culture and diverse society.
Interestingly, a study on the DNA of people in Scotland revealed an “extraordinary” and “unexpected” diversity, with genetic roots tracing back to various parts of Europe and beyond. This diversity is partly due to Scotland’s geographical position, which has made it a melting pot of different cultures over the centuries.
