Robert the Bruce, while a key figure in Scotland's fight for independence, faced criticism for his betrayal of his former ally, John Comyn. In 1306, Bruce killed Comyn in a church, an act that violated the sanctity of the space and led to his excommunication. This betrayal alienated some Scottish nobles and sparked a brutal civil conflict, complicating his quest for unification against English rule. Despite these missteps, Bruce ultimately succeeded in establishing himself as a national hero.
