Scotland

So once there was the Irish gal who said she was Egyptian, no idea why?

Irish gal:
I'm queen of Munster because I'm from a different country
People of Munster:
Makes sense
Queen Irish gal:

Munster people:

*The arrive in Scotland after like a long time*

Irish gal's relatives:
Well this is ours now
The Viking/Scottish People:

Munster people:

The Viking/Scottish People:
Bruh
Munster people:
What should we call this place
Irish gal's relatives:
Scotland land of the Scots
Munster people:
Why
Irish gal's relatives:
Because me mum's name is kinda close to scoirie witch sounds like Scoira witch sounds like Scor witch is basically Scot
Munster people:
Makes sense

The Irish version:
Albain in Gaelic
Alba in Scots Gaelic

Some Greek dude:

King of Mí:

-A bit later-

New king of mí:

*He goes to Scotland*
New king of Mí:

The Viking/Scottish People:

New king of mí:
