National anthem of Scotland : ウィキペディア英語版 | National anthem of Scotland
There is no official national anthem of Scotland.〔(BBC News – Action call over national anthem )〕 However, a number of songs are used as unofficial Scottish anthems, most notably "Scotland the Brave", "Flower of Scotland", and "Scots Wha Hae". In 2004, lawyers for the devolved Scottish Parliament advised that it was within the legal competence of the Scottish Parliament to choose a national anthem for Scotland, countering the suggestion that it would be a matter reserved to the Parliament of the United Kingdom. This ruling prompted some interest in the idea, and a petition to the Scottish Parliament's petitions committee supported by the Scottish Green Party was referred without recommendation to the Scottish Executive who chose to take no action, considering the issue not to be a political priority.〔http://www.scottish.parliament.uk/business/committees/petitions/or-04/pu04-1802.htm〕 There have been subsequent attempts to re-open the debate on a national anthem for Scotland. ==Current use== For most international sporting events Scotland uses ''Flower of Scotland'' as its national anthem. These events include matches of the Scottish national football team and the Scottish rugby union team.〔(BBC News - McConnell calls for anthem debate )〕 The song has also been used as the victory anthem of Scotland at the Commonwealth Games since 2010, replacing Scotland the Brave.
