The term 'Scottish Empire' is never used to refer to the British Empire. It is legitimate just to redirect 'Scottish Empire' to Scottish colonization of the Americas. Also see old discussion: Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2007 June 18. BlackBony (talk) 21:03, 21 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Lean keep. A search on Google Scholar and Google News suggests that there is use of "Scottish Empire" in reference to Scottish participation in the British Empire. BilledMammal (talk) 05:41, 27 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
