That is a LOT of history to cover in one school project... maybe it would be better to concentrate on a specific period!

Yeah, Scotland's been around for a while... as they say 'circa B.C.'
I'd pick a certain time period or theme like, famous Scots, or a certain clan, or a specific movement... good luck with that. Be careful on the sources you use. A lot of Scotland's 'history' has been documented by people who were not Scots... like they say... the victors write the history books.

Good luck!

Wow, that's a massive project!

Check in the History section, there may be some helpful stuff there.

She may want to narrow it down to an area, you are looking at a huge amount of info from a vast array of districts, all of it diverse.
