	Baldred Bisset’s Pleading
		He gave Loegria (which is now called England) to Locrinus, whilst assigning Albany (which is now called Scotland) to Albanactus, and Cambria (which is now called Wales) to Camber, but in such a way that the other two and their principalities were subordinate to Locrinus.
		It should be understood therefore that this William conquered the kingdom of England, in which it is known that neither the kingdom of Scotland nor any part of it is included.
		No claim can be made on the basis of the role of Locrinus or of other Britons to the kingdom of Scotland or even of England.

	rogueclassicism: What the Romans Did For/to Scotland
		This Brutus myth was used in the 13th century by England’s Edward I to justify his claim to Scotland.
		He argued that Brutus had been emperor of all Britain, and had given England and lordship of Britain to his eldest son Locrinus, while he left Scotland and Wales to his younger sons, Albanactus and Camber.
		The Scots rejected this as imperialist claptrap, but were equally keen to invent their own classical beginnings – the badge of any self-respecting mediaeval nation.
