Acts of Union 1707 1707年合併法案 (聯合法案)

Acts of Union 1707
繁:1707年合併法案 (聯合法案)
简:1707年合并法案 (联合法案)

最早的「合併」在1535年,英格蘭王國以《聯合法案》合併威爾斯公國。然後按《1707年聯合法案》合併蘇格蘭王國,才形成「聯合王國」。當中的「聯合」,是 Union,其實和「統一」又分別不大矣。

The Acts of Union 1707 would then have to be dissolved by passing a second bill.
Alex Salmond says he wants to achieve this by March 24, 2016.
