So, bear with me.

There was a fantastic timeline/After Action Report written a long time ago called Rome AARisen.

Now at the end it put forward a successor state to the main character (the Byzantines, shocker, I know) based in Scotland, effectively through inheritance.

Back to OTL, historically the Palaiologoi had a family member ruling in Montferrat - I'm curious as to whether you could have something similar happen in Scotland, and what impact that could have? Could we see a banishment scenario? Some random Scots defending Constantinople? A potential Scotland as the heart of the renaissance because of an influx of Greeks?

I'm curious as to whether a trip to Caledonia could have some interesting historical effects.
