How did Scotland gain independence from the British Empire? The British Empire is all but gone, with the last major overseas territory, Hong Kong, becoming a special administrative region of China in 1997. Scotland was an independent câ¦ountry until 1707, when the Union with England Act was passed.
(19/09/2014) Scottish Independence Referendum: On September 18th, the Scottish people voted to determine their nation's place in the United Kingdom. With 84.59% of voters casting their ballots, 55.30% voted in favor of remaining part of the union. The United Kingdom (UK) is arguably Europe's most influential country. In simple terms, it's the union of the individual countries of England, Scotland and Wales, collectively called Great Britain (Europe's largest island) and the northeastern corner of Ireland - the constitutionally distinct region of Northern Ireland. The United Kingdom is a constitutional monarchy.
