Electric Scotland is all about the history of Scotland and the Scots. (original) (raw)

Hello and Welcome to Electric Scotland

The largest and most comprehensive site on the history and culture of Scotland and the Scots at home and abroad. Started in 1997 in Scotland we cover every aspect of Scottish history and the Scots Diaspora. A great educational and research resource with thousands of books on all aspects of Scottish history and culture. As the site is so huge you may wish to avail yourself of our own site search engine to locate specific information. Lots of information on clans and families, places in Scotland, and loads of historical articles on just about every topic imaginable. We also have lots of great stories on our Electric Canadian web site where you can learn all about the history and culture of Canada and also about the Scots that settled there and where 15% of Canadian's are of Scots descent. We have a full 6 volume gazetteer on the site and many volumes of information on Significant and famous Scots. And we don't forget the young ones as they have their own section with many games and some 800 children's stories.

Scottish and Scots Diaspora News
This is a news feed mainly targeted at the Scots Diaspora and will contain news stories from both Scotland and other places in the world. We take a daily skim of the news from Scottish and other news sources so while the selection of stories is ours the news and words are from these news sources.
