The 1745 uprising, also known as the Jacobite Rising, was an attempt by supporters of the House of Stuart to reclaim the British throne. Led by Charles Edward Stuart, known as "Bonnie Prince Charlie," the uprising aimed to restore his father, James Francis Edward Stuart, to power. The rebellion began in Scotland and gained initial support, capturing key locations. However, the uprising faced significant challenges, including lack of resources and support from other regions. The turning point came at the Battle of Culloden in April 1746, where government forces decisively defeated the Jacobites, leading to the end of the uprising and further suppression of Scottish culture.
