Scotland Independence Referendum

The Scotland Independence Referendum was a vote held in September 2014 where eligible Scottish voters decided whether Scotland should become an independent country or remain part of the United Kingdom. The referendum asked, "Should Scotland be an independent country?" with options "Yes" or "No." A majority voted "No," meaning Scotland stayed part of the UK. The referendum was a significant political event, driven by desires for greater self-rule and questions about Scotland's future economic and political relationship with the UK. It demonstrated Scotland’s capacity for self-determination within a democratic framework.
