Solution

The correct option is C Scottish
Before the eighteenth-century, people in England identified themselves through their ethnic roots. There was no British nation in this period. English, Welsh, Scottish or Irish were the ethnic groups in England who had their own culture and political traditions. Among them, the English nation steadily grew in wealth, and industrialisation played an important role in it.
