GROUP RESPONSE SHEET
Fear of Civil war between Bruce and Balliol factions arises once again
Treaty of Birgham, with all its guarantees for Scottish sovereignty and independence is null and void
There is no clear and apparent heir to the throne of the KingdomNeed for someone powerful to keep
the Scottish nobles in check and decide upon new King, Edward demanded overlordship to adjudicate on succession
Sub issue 2 The reasons for the Scots’ appeal to Edward.
HIGHER HISTORY: The Wars of Independence 1286-1328
HIGHER HISTORY: The Wars of Independence 1286-1328
•Maid of Norway died on reaching Orkney causing the succession crisis. •Bishop Fraser believes that Edward should come to an understanding with Balliol, and this is the only way to avoid civil war. •The Earls of Mar and Atholl were collecting their army, which further led to fear of civil war. •Scots were looking for Edward I to arbitrate between the two competitors. •Fear that the guardianship would collapse. •Alexander had had a good working relationship with Edward I of England. •Edward I had a reputation as a statesman. •Fraser’s letter led to a reaction from the Bruce faction: letter of the seven earls. •Balliol was also manoeuvring for the crown, he had established a close relationship with Bishop Bek, Edward’s chief representative in Scotland. •Desire of Edward to revive English claims of overlordship. •The majority of Scots looked kindly on Edward’s intervention, at least at the beginning.

FROM THE SOURCE
The source illustrates the growth of resistance to Edward by stating that Andrew de Moray raised his standard at Avoch beginning the Northern Rebellion in 1296 against English domination.
The source further illustrates the growth of Scottish resistance to Edward as it states that people in the north such as tenants of Andrew de Moray and citizens of Inverness joined Moray in the Northern rebellion.
The source further illustrates the growth of Scottish resistance as it states that the Scots used their local knowledge of the ground to ambush superior English forces which shows the Scots resisting English rule by force in the North.
Finally, the source illustrates the growth of Scottish resistance to Edward I by informing us of the capture of numerous castles in the north of Scotland by Moray and his followers which shows that resistance had grown considerably to English rule and that the Scots had considerable forces at their disposal.

FROM RECALL
However, the source fails to illustrate fully the growth of resistance to Edward I between 1296 and 1297. It fails to mention that leading Scots nobles rebelled against Edward but eventually capitulated at Irvine.
The source also fails to mention the pinnacle of Scottish resistance to Edward in 1297 which was the battle of Stirling Bridge where Scots forces led by Wallace and Murray (De Moray) routed the English and won a famous victory.

Issue 2: The succession problem in Scotland 1286-92Issue 2: The succession problem in Scotland 1286-92
The source illustrates the succession problem in Scotland as it states how after Alexander’s death in 1286, without an obvious heir, there was no King of Scots for 6 years until John Balliol was chosen by Edward I.
The source further illustrates the succession problem as it states how guardians had to be elected from the church and nobility to rule in the absence of a king after Alexander’s death.
The source illustrates the succession problem in Scotland as it tells us that Margaret, Maid of Norway, was the lawful heir to the throne as she was Alexander’s sole surviving grandchild-his children having all died before him.
