About This Tool
Scots is a British minority in western Europe, referring to the indigenous peoples who live in Scotland. They are found mainly in Scotland, north of Great Britain, and throughout the UK.

Thanks to the development of local culture and education, there are many good Scots who have found a place in all walks of life.
The tool generates a list of 1,338 famous Scots who were born or lived in Scotland.
