The Kingdom Of West Scotland is a micronation that occupies Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, New Brunswick, and some land in Georgia, USA. It was founded in September 4, 2022 when Jayden Helms decided to look up "How to make a micronation?" on Wikihow and followed the steps and than found MicroWiki in one of the steps.

Some people say it is strange how the national language is French but it is named after Scotland. Jayden claims that this is because it is only 885 km away from Quebec, Canada which is mainly French and he also is more fluent in French and English than any other language.

Etymology

The idea of West Scotland came from the name of one of the territories of West Scotland which is called Nova Scotia. If you remove "Nova" and the "ia" from Nova Scotia you get "Scot". Jayden says that that reminded him of Scotland so he added a "West" behind Scotland because it is west of Scotland and that's what made the name.

Flag meaning

The 3 stars on the flag resemble the 3 territories of Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island and New Brunswick. The color red was picked as it is the opposite of blue and the Scottish flag in the corner resembles Scotland as it is obvious.

Government

The most power comes from Jayden Helms and Alex Councilman. Alex is the leader of the Council which decides what the government will do. Jayden is the king and has full power but however only uses it for royal or important purposes. There is also the Golden Army which controls various other military systems and is controlled by West Scotland.

National symbols and items.

The national animal of West Scotland is the Golden Lion and the national food is cayenne peppers.
