Developing a closer economic partnership with England was unsustainable, and Scotland's main trade partner was continental Europe, especially the <a href="/wiki/Netherlands" title="Netherlands">Netherlands</a>, where Scotland could trade its wool and fish for luxurious imports such as iron, spices or wine. Scotland and England were generally hostile to each other and were often at war, and the <a href="/wiki/Auld_Alliance" title="Auld Alliance">alliance with France</a> gave Scotland privileges that further encouraged developing cultural and economic ties with the continent rather than England. The union of 1603 only served the political and dynastic ambitions of King <a href="/wiki/James_VI_and_I" title="James VI and I">James</a> and was detrimental to Scotland economically – exports that Scotland offered were largely irrelevant to English economy, and while the <a href="/wiki/Privy_Council_of_Scotland" title="Privy Council of Scotland">Privy Council of Scotland</a> did keep its ability to manage internal economic policy, the foreign policy of Scotland was now in English hands. This limited Scotland's hitherto expansive trade with continental Europe, and forced it into English wars.<sup id="cite_ref-smout_62-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-smout-62"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>54<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>While the Scottish economy already suffered because of English wars with France and Spain in the 1620s, the <a href="/wiki/English_Civil_War" title="English Civil War">civil wars in England</a> had a particularly disastrous effect on Scotland and left it relatively impoverished as a result. The economy would slowly recover afterwards, but at the cost of being increasingly dependent on trade with England. A power struggle developed between Scotland and England in the 1680s, as Scotland recovered from the political turmoil and set on its own economic ambitions, which London considered a threat to its dominant and well-established position. English wars with continental powers undermined Scottish trade with France and the Netherlands, countries that used to be the Scotland's main trade partners before the union, and the English <a href="/wiki/Navigation_Acts" title="Navigation Acts">Navigation Acts</a> severely limited Scottish ability to trade by sea, and made the Scottish ambitions to expand the trade beyond Europe unachievable. Opinion in Scotland at the time was that England was sabotaging Scottish economic expansion.<sup id="cite_ref-smout_62-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-smout-62"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>54<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In the years leading to 1707, Scottish economy was lagging behind not only from the impact of wars, but also because of chronic deflation and industrial underdevelopment. Scotland remained a predominantly agrarian society, and the lack of manpower caused by previous conflicts contributed to an underwhelming agricultural output, which intermittently escalated into local food shortages or famines. In turn, the overreliance of Scottish landowners on foreign goods led to a deficit of financial capital, as gold and silver were exported overseas and deflation occurred. The Scottish Parliament attempted to combat the issue by attracting foreign investment - duty on ship building materials was lifted, taxes on new manufacturing stocks were cut, and customs on textile and linen goods were removed.<sup id="cite_ref-reubens_63-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-reubens-63"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>55<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Scotland grew increasingly dependent on its linen industry, which became the biggest source of employment after agriculture and constituted one-third of Scottish industry. Continental linen industries could outcompete Scotland, and protectionist tariffs implemented by Scotland led to tariff wars as European countries closed their markets to Scotland. In this situation, England became the largest foreign market for Scottish linen; however, while the tariffs in place shielded Scotland from the much larger English industry, England also retaliated against them. This forced Scotland to seek economic alternatives.<sup id="cite_ref-reubens_63-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-reubens-63"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>55<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> At the time, trade with colonies was rapidly growing in importance in Europe, and trade with colonies was very attractive to Scotland, given its pastoral economy. American colonies had a high demand of agricultural goods such as leather skins of goats and sheep, which would have provided Scotland a valuable source of income. Search for colonial trade, along with the frustration caused by economic and political rivalry with England, led to the <a href="/wiki/Darien_scheme" title="Darien scheme">Darien scheme</a> - an unsuccessful attempt to establish a Scottish colony in the <a href="/wiki/Gulf_of_Dari%C3%A9n" title="Gulf of Darién">Gulf of Darién</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-hland_64-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-hland-64"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>56<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The scheme was sabotaged by England in various ways - it was seen as a threat to the privileged position of the <a href="/wiki/East_India_Company" title="East India Company">East India Company</a>, prompting England to ensure the plan's failure via political and diplomatic overtures to prevent the Netherlands and <a href="/wiki/Hamburg" title="Hamburg">Hamburg</a> from investing into the scheme and denying assistance.<sup id="cite_ref-ramos_65-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-ramos-65"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>57<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In what was dubbed the "affair of Hamburgh" in Scotland, <a href="/wiki/William_III_of_England" title="William III of England">William III of England</a> persuaded European powers against buying stocks in the scheme; William commented on Darien: </p> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1244412712"><blockquote class="templatequote"><p>I have been ill-served in Scotland; but I hope some remedies may be found to prevent the inconveniences which may arise from this Act.<sup id="cite_ref-66" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-66"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>58<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></p></blockquote> <p>English actions against the Darien scheme were also motivated by other factors – the decline in the East India Company's stock values, concerns of Darien causing a labour shortage in the <a href="/wiki/Colony_of_Jamaica" title="Colony of Jamaica">Colony of Jamaica</a>, and the scheme being seen as a threat to "the general peace of Christendom", as Catholic Spain laid a territorial claim to the area.<sup id="cite_ref-reubens_63-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-reubens-63"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>55<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>} </p><p>The failure of the Darien scheme led to a financial crisis in Scotland.

Ultimately, the Scottish bank managed to stay solvent, although the persisting deflation and low reserves largely contributed to the feeling of Scottish economy being in a precarious position. Economist Aida Ramos argues that the Darien scheme could have succeeded if it was to receive support from either England or Spain, and that it lacked the capability to create a threat to England or its interests. According to Ramos, the English intervention against the scheme was to meet the expansionary aims of England, as to ensure both its colonial dominance as well as the annexation of Scotland.<sup id="cite_ref-ramos_65-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-ramos-65"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>57<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>By 1703, the Scottish government was highly disillusioned with the union, and many believed that the only way to let the Scottish economy flourish was to separate from England. <a href="/wiki/John_Clerk_of_Eldin" title="John Clerk of Eldin">John Clerk of Eldin</a> declared that "the Scots had become England's slaves, since they were denied not only their rights as fellow-Britons but their rights under the Law of Nations", and writer David Black wrote: "England affords us but little of what is necessary, yet they drain us more than any nation". The anti-English sentiment led to accusation of King William orchestrating the 1699 <a href="/wiki/Glencoe_Massacre" class="mw-redirect" title="Glencoe Massacre">Glencoe Massacre</a>, and in 1703 the Scottish Parliament started adopting legislation to counter the English aggression - the first was the <a href="/wiki/Act_Anent_Peace_and_War" class="mw-redirect" title="Act Anent Peace and War">Act Anent Peace and War</a>, which was to guarantee that the Scottish foreign policy would be independent of England.<sup id="cite_ref-ramos_65-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-ramos-65"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>57<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Scotland would try to establish further autonomy from England with the <a href="/wiki/Act_of_Security_1704" title="Act of Security 1704">Act of Security 1704</a>, which provoked a retaliation from England - Scottish ministers were bribed, and <a href="/wiki/Alien_Act_1705" title="Alien Act 1705">Alien Act 1705</a> was passed. According to the Alien Act, unless Scotland appointed commissioners to negotiate for union by Christmas, every Scot in England would be treated as an alien, leading to the confiscation of their English estates. Additionally, Scottish wares were to be banned from England.

The unionists stressed how important trade with England is to the Scottish economy, and seen trade with continental Europe as not beneficial. They argued that the Scottish economy could survive by trading with England, and sanctions that would result from the Alien Act would collapse the economy. For Defoe, joining the union would not only prevent the Alien Act, but also remove additional limitations and regulations and lead Scotland to prosperity. Anti-unionists questioned the English goodwill and criticised the unionist faction for submitting to the English blackmail. They argued that Scotland could make a recovery by trading with the Netherlands, Spain and Norway, allowing Scotland to diversify its own industries as well. They argued that the union would make Scotland unable to conduct independent trade policy, meaning that any possibility to remove the flaws in Scottish economy would be gone forever, which would turn Scotland into a "mere satellite of the richer kingdom".<sup id="cite_ref-smout_62-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-smout-62"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>54<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Ultimately, Scottish ministers voted in favour of the union, despite the lack of public support, with the overwhelming majority of the Scottish population at the time protesting vociferously against any union with England.<sup id="cite_ref-Bowie_50-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Bowie-50"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>42<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Many Scots considered themselves to have been betrayed by their own elites, and that the union bill was able to pass only thanks to English bribery.<sup id="cite_ref-67" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-67"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>59<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In the first few decades after the union, England did not end up becoming the main trading partner of Scotland, as other European powers became the primary source of imported goods for Scotland.
