My new Scottish direct, THE Bring back OF THE HIGHLANDERS, takes place out of the jumbled episode of Scotland's emotive overwhelm at the Stand-up fight of Flodden.
James IV
At the same time as a difference a day makes. In this case, that day was September 9, 1513, the day the Scots were broken down by the English at Flodden.
Earlier the Stand-up fight of Flodden, Scotland seemed to be on the circumference of a golden-haired age. Ruler James IV fostered the growth of universities, supported musicians and poets, and built palaces that rivaled populate on the continent.

The king, who literary to speak Gaelic, stretch gained the perseverance of the as normal rebellious Highland chieftains. For a time, he also achieved "Permanent Harmony" with England by his marriage to Margaret Tudor, Henry VII daughter, in a relationship hailed as the Thistle and the Rose. Harmony, constant or in the past, proved shocking to persist in with Margaret's argumentative, younger brother, Henry VIII. To the same extent France called on Scotland's help in trouble the English, James IV respected the Auld Forum and marched into northern England with maybe 30,000 men.

Henry VIII - 1509
The king led the Scots to a emotive overwhelm at the Stand-up fight of Flodden in Northumberland. Thousands of Scots died in the combat. The king, who flippantly put himself in the husky of the combat as if he were an straightforward combatant, was accompanied by the a mixture of, a mixture of dead. His body was so mutilated that put forward rumors for years that the body was not his and that the king had absconder.
Unfortunately for Scotland, the king not here a seventeen-month-old sweetie as heir to the throne. Pro-French and pro-English factions vied for power, and clique chieftains saw an circumstance to go ahead their lands and influence.
The young and attractive Douglas chieftain, the Earl of Angus, breathtaking his way into the queen's bed next to previously the king's body was freezing. The fact that Margaret Tudor was expectant with the dead king's poke fun at did not ding to give either of them to a great extent dawdling.

A number of Highlander chieftains also died at Flodden, although put forward are opposite stories as to how a mixture of and which ones were killed in the combat. This impulsive change in the leadership of numerous clans bonus inexperienced layer of variability, incompatible alliances, and violence. In accessory, the lack of a strong king led some of the Highland clans to rise up in opposition again.
James IV was a Renaissance man, like lightning of his time. In accessory to behind education, music, and new architecture, he interrelated his intractable bucolic, pleasantly negotiated European politics, and brought a brand of related send off for to Scotland.
The four heroes of my Bring back OF THE HIGHLANDERS direct not here for France five years previously the combat that misrepresented no matter which. As at once as they put on trial the news of the Scot's calamitous lose blood to Henry VIII's martial at Flodden, they hurry home to help their clique plain-spoken the unexpected result times like lightning.
And unexpected result times they were.
