I am thinking about doing a thread about Scotland, with clan warfare and all, but in modern times. I think it would be interesting. Like where multiple tribes fight over Scotland, territory, land, etc. in a 2023 near future anarchy where clans fight each other. Edinburgh is destroyed, and Glasgow is very small because most of the people have fled the seemingly never ending battle between two of the biggest clans, the Duncans and the McIvers. Large clan federations contain smaller clans, like they used to (and technically still do) all fighting each other for territory, resources, and more civilians to conscript into their armies. nations could RP tribes inside of clan federations, because each clan consists of many tribes. The Shetland Islands are independent.
The basic storyline is that after Scotland left the UK in 2021, they decided to restore the Scottish monarchy. The ruling king came from the Campbell clan, but the McIvers, a tribe in the Campbell clan, overthrew them and installed their own leader. Scotland then broke into anarchy, with some main factions arising: The McIvers, technically the kings, and are slightly the strongest and control the most land, with their capital in Inverness (much bigger than RL because many fled from Edinburgh to McIver territory, and therefore to Inverness); The Duncans, second biggest clan and control most of the South, ties to England, capital in Glasgow (much smaller due to intense bombing raids and a previous McIver invasion that destroyed much of the city, causing many to flee); the Mackays, control much of the North with no real capital (the council rotates between Durness, Thurso, and Wick) and they are quite small, have been launching an unsuccessful siege of Inverness for a while now; the MacLeans, who control Argyll and the Western Peninsula area, with their capital at Inverclyde (also bigger than RL), and the Lewis Federation, which control the Isles of Lewis and surrounding areas (the island chain) and their capital is at Stornoway.
I am just putting ideas out there, does anyone think this could be cool?
Here is a map I made to show you what I am talking about
*The Lewis Federation holds the islands, and the other nations they are disputed between holds some of the land area. McIver in the Lewis-McIver fighting holds about half of it, closer to the rest of their territory (and Inverness, their capital) but Mackay holds almost all of the territory that's disputed, besides the islands of course. My map wouldn't let me select smaller areas.
