Politics of Scotland
Scotland
is a country which is part of the
United Kingdom
(UK). As the UK is
de jure
a
unitary state
, the
Parliament of the United Kingdom
, located at
Westminster
,
London
is sovereign over the whole state. However, since the late 1990s, a system of devolution has emerged in the UK, whereby Scotland,
Wales
and
Northern Ireland
have each been granted some measure of self-government whilst remaining within the UK.
