 Scots Isles and Highlands -- 1050-1493 AD (DBA III/77)
Yet the domain of the Isles, in particular, was effectively an independent "country" for more than three centuries, a fact which may largely explain why Scottish Gaelic culture has managed to survive to the present day, despite the ravages of the post-Culloden period and the Scottish national shame of the Highland Clearances.
The Gaelic inhabitants of the Isles were originally Gaels from Ulster in northern Ireland, a region where close family ties and alliances were to continue and to be strengthened right through the period.
As noted above the Isles and West coast were a Gaelic region heavily influenced by the Norse, even although even indirect Norse control of the Inner Hebrides did not outlast the 13th century.
