A Hollywood movie about the life of Sir William Wallace, Scottish freedom fighter BUT the term 'Braveheart' was actually attributed to King Robert the Bruce before he died he requested that his heart be removed and buried in the Holy Land (Palestine)
In reference to his country (Scotland) being free from the English.
"how can i be accused of treason, when England is a foreign land to me!" According to the film, Braveheart, his last words were "Freedom". And we all know how wildly inaccurate that movie was. The truth is, no-one actually knows what his last words were.
William Wallace impacted world history for Scotland by not only by gaining their freedom but showing that they are a country and can stand up for themselves. William defeated the English at the Battle of Stirling Bridge, was defeated at Falkirk and spent the next several years on the run, both in Scotland and on the continent, before being captured and cruelly executed as a traitor to England on August 23, 1305. William mad the best gain for Scotland and died for his country. The freedom that he gained is still in Scotland today and now people are able to not be "controlled" by kings and queens.
beacuse he never gave up in war he was brave looked after his army and all he wanted was freedom! :)
The bloody English tortured and killed him. Freedom!
The freedom quote by Mel Gibson's character in Braveheart is: "As William Wallace said, Tell our enemies, that they may take our lives but they'll never take OUR FREEDOM!".
