Scotland lies in the north of England. When it comes to Scotland, the exciting images in my mind are touching lakes and mountains, magnificent castles, cool golf courses, mellow malt whisky, tartan and bagpipes, all of which are the cultural characteristics of Scotland.

The Scottish people fought for independence.

Scotland has its own parliament, laws, banks and currency. The subtle relationship between them and the British is hatred and jealousy. How can they fight for nothing for so many years? To this day, Scots are still fighting for independence. Isn't "freedom" what william wallace finally shouted in Braveheart?

The national flower of Scotland is a wild flower called thistle. I heard that it was invaded by foreign enemies many years ago. When I was preparing to sneak attack at night, I was screamed by this thorny little plant, which exposed my whereabouts and finally defeated me. So the Scots regard it as the national flower. In fact, it is as stubborn and individual as the Scots.

Life-loving Scotland

Scots are rough, friendly and kind. They have well preserved their traditional culture, and still retain their national characteristics in folk songs, music and costumes. Scots love life, bagpipes, plaid skirts and whisky are the symbols of Scots. He is especially good at drinking, especially whisky, which they call "the water of life". Scotch-this wine won't make people drunk. They are open-minded, simple and upright, perhaps because of the stubbornness and tenacity cultivated by the continuous rainy season and bad climate. Scots wear this kind of clothing to express their resistance to British rule and their strong desire for national independence.

Nowadays, whenever the residents of the Highlands of Scotland hold a holiday party, they always wear beautiful plaid skirts, cloaks and black hair crowns, with a white feather inserted on the left, a black and white decorative bag slung around their waist, white shoe covers, socks and knee-length trousers, playing cheerful bagpipes and dancing "Sintrubohas", and a strong Scottish national flavor comes to their faces. Bagpiper in plaid skirt, bartender in plaid skirt, soldier in plaid skirt, family man in plaid skirt ... For Scotland, just as plaid skirt and bagpipes are inseparable, Scotland without plaid skirt man will be stale.

Words woven on clothes tell the history of every ethnic group in Scotland. There is a beautiful scene in the movie Braveheart: When Wallace, a Scottish national hero, and his lover escaped from the surveillance of the English people and made a lifelong commitment to each other in the quiet moonlight on the plateau, Wallace's vows to his lover were woven into plaid representing their bloodlines.

British culture

England's long history has given birth to rich traditional culture, English football culture and metropolis London, which are the epitome of British culture.

British football fans

When British people meet, whether face to face or in cyberspace, the progress of the competition is always the hottest and most inevitable topic.

When dealing with English people, the weather and football are enough to run through the whole conversation. Knowing which city's football team you support can make you their friend or enemy. In Britain, English people seem to be surrounded by football all their lives. For them, it is almost impossible to escape football, because most boys like playing football since childhood. It is one thing to play well, but their popularity is indescribable. Coupled with the weekend league, their lives are almost dominated by football. In this World Cup, as long as there is an English team, you can see fans wearing the flag of St. George's in England singing songs in support of England in the street, singing and dancing in groups of three and five, and walking to the stadium to watch the game.

During the game, the whole city looks like a dead city, and there are few pedestrians on the street, because most people don't go to pubs to watch the game. Just stay at home and watch TV. Can you believe it? Even the Queen of England is a football fan. This gives me a complete and thorough understanding of the cohesion and patriotism of English fans when they play for the English team. The British love football, so many football cultures and British cultures interact with each other, so every time the English team wins, it will sing "Football Go Home".
