@Angus333McBride I am a Scot, not a Dutchman pretending to be a Scot. I believe I have a healthy sense.. :-)

@UISTMAN59 Lol whatever ye want yer probably not Scottish or a person with a healthy sense.

@Angus333McBride It was a rebellion.
-
@UISTMAN59 One thing! Never and seriusely never call Jacobites or the whole events a rebellion! They where no rebbels they where loyal servants to the rightfull monarch. The wigs and those discusting Hannoverian dogs are the rebbels. Rebbels are people who fight against legal things. The Jacobites where fighting for something legal. So thats why its called an uprising or a rising, becouse thats a fight agains something illigal. ;-) hope i helped ye with this now. atleast ye lisen to great music.

@JeannieTomlin I've read Military Historians who have said that had the Prince's forces taken London it would have ended the Hanoverian rule.

Some of the most heroic and dedicated Jacobites were thise of the Manchester Regiment - brutally treated on capture by the government forces. The estimate of troops pressed by the clan system into military service is 5% - and unlike the the English Army (British after 1854) they were not whipped. Most were volunteers and 40% from the lowlands. Republicanism didnt become a force until the 1790s. Burns was a republican member of The United Scotsmen but with a Jacobite anti-unionist background.
