Why didn\'t the Romans conquer Scotland?
#4
They hadn't invented whiskey or golf yet, so it's pretty much worthless! Remember, the northernmost outpost of the Roman army was Victoria at Inchtuthil, Scotland, and built by Legio XX. Apparently there was a change of emperors and the new guy decided to move the legion back south again--just BEFORE they finished building their new fortress! Talk about pissed...
