Dundee & Angus

 Angus was historically a county, known officially as Forfarshire from the 18th century until 1928. The county is traditionally associated with the Pictish kingdom of Circinn, which is thought to have encompassed Angus and the Mearns.  Angus is seen as the birthplace of Scotland. The signing of the Declaration of Arbroath at Arbroath Abbey in 1320 marked Scotland's establishment as an independent nation. It is an area of rich history from Pictish times onwards. Notable historic sites in addition to Arbroath Abbey include Glamis Castle, Arbroath Signal Tower museum and the Bell Rock Light House. Historically, the dominant language in Angus was Pictish until the sixth to seventh centuries AD when the area became progressively gaelicised, with Pictish extinct by the mid-ninth century.Gaelic/Middle Irish began to retreat from lowland areas in the late-eleventh century and was absent from the Eastern lowlands by the fourteenth century. It was replaced there by Middle Scots , the contemporary local Southern Dialect  dialect of Modern Scots , while Gaelic persisted as a majority language in the highland Glens until the 19th century.Scottish English is now increasingly replacing Scots. Dundee s the fourth-largest city in Scotland. Its history begins with the Picts in the Iron Age.. Throughout the Industrial Revolution, the local jute industry caused the city to grow rapidly and is known as the city of "jute, jam and journalism".
