History

New Scotland was settled by people from Earth as part of the second wave of outer space colonization. The first wave occured dureing and just after the Eugenics Wars in the 1990's. Most of the first wave colonization attempts were lost or failures.

The second wave occured years later after the initial success of the starship Enterprise NX-01, Captained by Johnathan Archer. Various factions, regions or other groups saw colonization of the stars as the future for the human race. These organizations examined the intel sent home by both the Enterprise and deep space freighters. After the founding of the Federation in 2161 they were also able to access the records of the Vulcan, Andorian and Tellerite space missions.

The region known as the United Kingdoms had a number of proposed colonization projects in the works. These projects would result in the founding of a number of colonies. New Scotland was the last one established in 2215. It was also the one farthest from the homeworld at this time. The final determining factor in it's selection was the request from the Raskor System for assistance in the creation of a defensive system.

The United Kingdoms approached the Federation, offering to supply the workers for the project. Their offer was accepted. Over 93% of the workers who were shipped into space at the expense of the Raskorians then settled on the colony of New Scotland once their one year work contract was finished. This took a huge dent out of the cost of founding the colony. As a result it was the largest colony created by the United Kingdoms.

The work of converting the 4 moons of Raskor into weapons platforms started in 2217 and lasted until 2228, a total of 11 years. The task was of mythic proportions, with more than 100,000 workers a year transported to the construction site. When finished more than 1.5 million human workers had worked on the project.

Most of these workers then settled on New Scotland where for most of them their families were already waiting for them. This resulted in an initial population growth over the first 15 years from 0 to more than 4 million. The largest and quickest growth enjoyed by any colonization effort funded by Earth.
