A great nation needs a great leader. Just like a ship needs a capable captain, so does a proud and sovereign nation need a competent king to lead it through the tumultuous waves of history. Alas, history taught us that capable leaders are not always readily available. Scotland's history led its people through many a dark passage: even from its earliest prehistory, this proud nation suffered at the hands of conquerors and invaders. From the Vikings, to the Normans, and the English - everyone wanted to reign over proud and wild Alba. In the late 1200s and early 1300s, however, the people of Scotland finally stood up and sought the light of freedom: they led a series of wars that would gain them their independence. Many leaders and commanders appeared during this time, all of them leaving their trace on history. However, only one emerged as "King of the Scots", and led the nation to its coveted independence. That man is the famed Robert the Bruce, a national hero of Scotland and one of its most renowned warriors.
