The Scottish Jacobite movement was a series of uprisings and political efforts in the 17th and 18th centuries aimed at restoring the Stuart dynasty to the British throne. The movement primarily supported James II and his descendants, who were ousted during the Glorious Revolution of 1688. Jacobites sought to reclaim the throne for the Catholic Stuarts, leading to significant conflicts, including the Jacobite risings of 1715 and 1745. The most famous of these uprisings was the 1745 rising, led by Charles Edward Stuart, also known as "Bonnie Prince Charlie." This rebellion aimed to reclaim the throne but ultimately ended in defeat at the Battle of Culloden in 1746. The aftermath of the Jacobite movement led to harsh reprisals against the Scottish clans and significant changes in Scottish culture and society.
