		The parliament, which is also referred to as the Estates of Scotland, the Three Estates, the Scots Parliament or the auld Scots Parliament (Eng: old), met until the Acts of Union merged the parliament of Scotland and the Parliament of England, creating the new Parliament of Great Britain in 1707.
		The British Parliament is often referred to as the "Mother of Parliaments"â”in fact a misquotation of John Bright, who remarked in 1865 that "England is the Mother of Parliaments"â”because the British Parliament has been the model for most other parliamentary systems, and its Acts have created many other parliaments.
		The Parliament of the United Kingdom was originally formed in 1707 by the Acts of Union that replaced the former parliaments of England and Scotland - the Irish Parliament was subsumed into the Imperial Parliament in 1801.
