    Extractions: Language of Material : eng lat fre dut ita Edward Hyde, 1st Earl of Clarendon, son of Henry Hyde of Dinton in Wiltshire, was born on 18 February 1609, and became a barrister of the Middle Temple. His first marriage (with Anne Ayliffe in 1629) connected him with the powerful Villiers family, and his second in 1634, with Frances Aylesbury, substantially improved his position. He represented Wootton Bassett and Saltash in the Parliaments which preceded the Civil War, and during the Long Parliament attracted the king's attention as a champion of the royal prerogative. Throughout the War he was prominent among the king's advisers, and took the leading part in the negotiations which preceded the Restoration. In June 1660 he was rewarded with the office of Lord High Chancellor, and in the next year was created Earl of Clarendon. In 1667 his enemies procured his impeachment, and Clarendon fled to the Continent, where he set himself to literary labour, revising and competing his History of the Rebellion (which he had begun in 1646), writing his autobiography, and composing essays and meditations on political and religious subjects, until his death at Rouen on 9 December 1674. His daughter Anne married James Duke of York and was the mother of Queen Mary and Queen Anne. From October 1660 to December 1667 Clarendon was Chancellor of the University of Oxford, where he had previously resided from 1642 to 1645. Further details are given in the

    Extractions: History of the Kilt The tartan kilt has long been the most recognisable cultural tradition of the Highland Scots. Therefore, it surprises most people that many of the most recognisable features and traditions associated with the wearing of the kilt have, in fact, been developed in the nineteenth century, not by Scottish Highlanders, but by the Nobles of England and Scotland. There is much evidence that many of the more recognisable tartans seen today are in fact creations of Scottish and English tailors during the reign of Queen Victoria. Despite this, it has generally been accepted that the basic concepts of the tartan and the wearing of the kilt do indeed have their origin in the history of the early Scottish and Irish clans, or families. It has been demonstrated that certain clans did aspire to a certain uniformity of design for their garments as early as the tenth and eleventh centuries. The word kilt comes from Middle English meaning fold or pleat. The Gaelic term is Feileadh beag (anglicized as "philabeg"). It was devised in the early 1700's by cutting down the Feileach mhor or the great kilt with sewn pleats at the waist. The Gaelic word for tartan is breacan, meaning partially colored or speckled, and every tartan today features a multicolored arrangement of stripes and checks. These patterns, or sett's, are used to identify the clan,family, or regiment with which the wearer is associated.

    Extractions: There has been no war in Scotland for over 250 years. Fierce warriors and Clans are no longer important and Clan Chiefs have no authority. Kilts are worn only for ceremonial purposes and no Scottish king dwells in Edinburgh Castle. More than four thousand years ago the first people settled in Scotland. Like the Celts, who arrived about 300 BC, they came from Europe. The Picts arrived around 1000 BC. The Roman Army came in 55 BC. Gnaeus Julius Agricola, Governor of Britain (77-84), invaded Caledonia, i. e., Scotland, in an effort to bring it under Roman control. The people of Caledona, called Picts, because they painted their bodies, were defeated, but not conquered. The Picts continued to harass and encumber the Romans, which caused them to build a northern defensive wall (Hadrian's Wall) across England. The Romans vacated the country by AD 410. The Scots, a Celtic Tribe from Northern Ireland, settled on Scotland's west coast about AD. 500. Through a series of battles, 841-846, Kenneth I, son of Alpine, King of Scots, conquered the Picts and expanded his kingdom to become Scotland. There were many violent struggles for the Scottish Throne in the 900's and later. Kenneth III became king in 997 by killing Constantine III. In 1005 Malcolm II killed Kenneth III. Duncan I, who followed Malcolm II, was murdered in 1040 by Macbeth, one of his generals. Macbeth ruled Scotland until 1057 when he was killed in battle, by a son of Duncan I, who later became, King Malcolm III.

    Extractions: Post WWII The accession of James I and the end of the war with Spain Upon the death of Elizabeth I, James VI, King of Scots (son of Mary, Queen of Scots), succeeded as James I, King of England, thereupon uniting the crowns but not the governments of England and Scotland. To mark the union of the crowns, a new ensign was designed superimposing the red cross of St George on the white cross of St Andrew. Closer union of the nations parliaments, for example, was rejected by the commons and abandoned after 1607. One of James I's first acts of foreign policy was to bring the long war with Spain to an end. Although this greatly helped the depleted English treasury (and helped enforce James's reputation as rex pacificus), the policy was, in part, unpopular because peace meant that both the English and the Dutch had to acknowledge the Spanish claim to a monopoly of trade between their own South American colonies and the rest of the world.
