It depends on your perspective. Your own country of Scotland placed massive pressure upon the English to join together as a single unit because of the massive benefits to Scots, particularly in terms of trade. Few towns, for example, did better than Glasgow out of Atlantic trade.

For the record, I'm a nationalist.
Also, your history is wrong. Although Scotland did well out of union, Scotland did NOT want to join. After union, there were years of mass riots and the act only ever passed because the unelected assembly of lords saw it as there option after the disasterous Darian Adventure.
