Excerpt from Scottish Colonial Schemes, 1620-1686 The latent possibilities Of these Scottish schemes adds interest to the problem of why the Scots, who took a leading part in the colonial activities of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, achieved so little in the way of acquisition of colonies during the seventeenth century. The failure of the Scottish schemes was due mainly to the persistence of certain national tendencies, military, economic and religious, and it will be not unprofitable to discuss these before we take up the history of the various schemes.
