“Is it time for Scotland to become and independent country?” Thinking Module Report (1000) Scotland, England, Northern Ireland and Wales have all created this glorified image of togetherness since they were united in 1707 through the Treaty of Unions. Since then, however, the dispute of Scotland becoming an independent country has been a reoccurring argument that has put a strain on the relationships between these ‘united’ countries.

To what extent did the Liberals, Conservatives, IPP, the Ulster Unionists and the Southern achieve their political objectives during the Home Rule crisis of 1912-14? During the third Home Rule bill crisis of 1912-1914 there was many differing objectives among those who lived in Ireland and those in Westminster who governed Ireland. The Liberal Party and the Irish Parliamentary Party, otherwise known as the IPP, wanted Home Rule for all of Ireland. However the Conservative Party and Ulster and Southern Unionists wanted to prevent Home Rule completely. Home Rule for Ireland meant that an Independent Irish Parliament would stand in Dublin to govern Irish affairs, still having an Irish representation in Westminster, whilst Westminster would govern all issues to do with the crown, defence and imperial government.
The expense of creating a Scottish Parliament also raised some criticism, and the West Lothian Question was also a major issue. The idea for some sort of devolution for Scotland had been around since the 1880s, with several campaigns during that period.

The framework for devolution was developed by the Scottish Constitutional Convention.

In the Muslim world, as in others, religion, politics, and culture are intertwined in complicated ways. The purpose of this study is to examine the dynamics that are driving changes in the religio-political landscape of the Muslim world. Our goal is to provide policymakers and the broader academic and policy community with a general overview of events and trends in the Muslim world that are most likely to affect U.S. interests and security. First, we develop a typology of ideological tendencies or orientations in the various regions of the Muslim world. The world’s Muslims differ substantially not only in their religious views but also in their political and social orientation, including their conceptions of government, law, and human rights; their social agenda (in particular, women’s rights and the content of education); and their propensity for violence.

In the case of Making History, a historical perspective may look at the setting of war torn and chaotic Ireland and state and identify a theme about conflict and nationality.

A psychological approach may examine the use of metaphor relating to history and assume that the text conveys the message that history is changed to look as interesting as possible. Similarly,
