Scotland-Greece

i was watching some videos in the youtube and i noticed this one

YouTube - SCOTLAND THE LAND OF THE GREEKS

i don't think so that this video is reliable but there are so many similarities between the two countries that they can't be just coincidences..

does anyone know if some of these historical things in the video are true?

Sir Winston Churchill once said,

"Of all the small nations of this earth, perhaps only the ancient Greeks surpass the Scots in their contribution to mankind." Not a bad complement from an English/American.

"No people, so few in number, have scored so deep a mark in the world's history as the Scots have done. No people have a greater right to be proud of their blood." James Anthony Froude.
