Solution

The correct option is D 1707
In 1707, the Act of Union brought England and Scotland together, and the United Kingdom of Great Britain was formed. Through this Act, England could impose its influence on Scotland. After the formation of the Union, the English members dominated the British Parliament, and Scotland's distinctive identity, culture and political institutions were being undermined.
