First of all, Scotland is not a county it's a country. We get our name from the ancient Scotti tribe from Northern Ireland who settled here in the Dark Ages. If the question refers to Scott County Illinois that County was named after an early pioneer family named Scott that had first settled in the area. As to the relevance of Scotland to the etymology of Scott County it is of interest since one of the early villages in what is now Scott County bears the name Glasgow.
