1684 CE to 1827 CE

Catholics loyal to James in parts of Scotland and Ireland remain determined to see him restored to the throne, and there follows a series of bloody though unsuccessful uprisings.

As a result of these, any failure to pledge loyalty to the victorious King William is dealt with severely.

The most infamous example of this policy is the Massacre of Glencoe in 1692.

Jacobite rebellions continue on into the mid-eighteenth century until the son of the last Catholic claimant to the throne, (James III & VIII), mounts a final campaign in 1745.

The Jacobite forces of Prince Charles Edward Stuart, the "Bonnie Prince Charlie" of legend, are defeated at the Battle of Culloden in 1746.
