Scotland is an uninhabited part of Earth. Except for Hogwarts.

Am mainly talking about the population size compared to other countries lol. Hell being born in Iceland has to be super rare

Imagine being born in Viking Iceland with just over 300,000

Yes,any country under 100mi is tiny

 

[SkinjobCatastrophe]

Scotland has 5.5 million people and their population is very steady. Assuming that the world population is around 8 billion that means around 1 out of every 1600 people is scottish, but the birth rate in scotland is steady while its increasing worldwide so the real chances of being born scottish are probably closer to 1 in 2000 or 0.05%
