Description:From the seventeenth century to the current day, more than 2.5 million Scots have sought new lives elsewhere.

It spans diverse destinations including Europe, the USA, Canada, New Zealand, Australia, South Africa, Ceylon (now Sri Lanka), Hong Kong, Guyana and the British World more broadly.
