Scotland’s nation has decided Scotland should remain part of the United Kingdom.

The campaign has came to an end, for some upsetting, for some remaining happy. Perth & Kinross decided to vote No for Independence along with Aberdeen and Edinburgh. While Dundee and Glasgow voted for Independence.

Deputy First Minister Nicola Sturgeon, a supporter of independence, told the BBC the projected result was “a deep personal and political disappointment” but said “the country has been changed forever”.

Ms Sturgeon said she would work with “anyone in any way” to secure more powers for Scotland.
