╰─▸ The Anarchy (1138 - 1153) was a civil war that broke out in England when Stephen of Blois seized the throne after his uncle Henry I’s death. Henry I’s heir apparent, his daughter Empress Matilda, traveled to England and waged war against her cousin with the help of her uncle, King David of Scotland. Though Matilda’s army captured Stephen, she was never officially crowned and the war entered a stalemate. Stephen was released on the agreement that after his reign, Matilda’s sons and not his own would gain the throne, thus ending the feud.

Monarchies are only fun in fiction. But overthrowing a monarchy in real life could be very fun

Legendary kings of Scotland by James de Witt.

69: Kennethus II (Kenneth MacAlpin)

Kenneth MacAlpin (810-858) or Kenneth I was King of Dál Riada (841–850), King of the Picts (843–858), and the first King of Alba (843–858) of likely Gaelic origin. He inherited the throne of Dál Riada from his father Alpín mac Echdach, founder of the Alpínid dynasty. Kenneth I conquered the kingdom of the Picts in 843–850 and began a campaign to seize all of Scotland and assimilate the Picts, for which he was posthumously nicknamed An Ferbasach ("The Conqueror"). Kenneth I is traditionally considered the founder of Scotland, which was then known as Alba, although like his immediate successors, he bore the title of King of the Picts. One chronicle calls Kenneth the first Scottish lawgiver but there is no information about the laws he passed.

I know that depictions of Scottish people in media are hardly the most egregious or damaging in the grand scheme of things of “let’s fuck up understanding of a culture for funzies”, but I will never be over Kingsman 3’s utterly bizarre decision to have the grand reveal of their villain be that he’s Scottish and upset about the Highland Clearances.

He even wears tartan trousers for fuck’s sake, something I could not take in anyway seriously because those are what my headteacher wore to school events.

What’s your specific examples?
