Scottish history after 1066 included daily conflicts between the nobles and the commoners. The nobles were primarily under the control of England, which spawned isolated rebellions from the commoners and highlander tribes. While the nobles sold their identities and national pride for wealth and castles, even they knew the time would come when a fearless leader would unite all of Scotland against English tyranny. That leader would be William Wallace who was portrayed by Mel Gibson in popular movie 'Braveheart'.

After the Norman Conquest of England in 1066, Scotland maintained its independence and continued to develop its own distinct identity. The Scottish monarchy faced challenges such as Viking invasions and internal power struggles, but managed to consolidate its power. Notable events include the signing of the Treaty of Perth in 1266, which established Scottish sovereignty over the Western Isles, and the Wars of Scottish Independence in the 14th century, led by figures like William Wallace and Robert the Bruce.
