Social Science — AI-generated practice question

England imposed its influence on Scotland; the British Parliament was dominated by English members, and Scotland's distinctive culture and political institutions were systematically suppressed.

• The examiner expects you to: (1) define/describe the Act of Union, and (2) state its result — two clear points for 2 marks.
• Key phrases to use: "United Kingdom of Great Britain," "England imposed its influence," and "Scotland's culture suppressed."
• Avoid writing about Ireland here — that happened in 1801 (a separate event). Stick to what the passage says about 1707.
