Nah, DiT, that's not right
Once God had finished making the earth, he was sitting around resting for a bit and St Peter came to see him.

"Morning God", said Peter. "I've just been down seeing that new earth you made last week, and I was particularly impressed with one bit of it".

"Oh, right", replied God. "Which bit was that then?"

"I think it's called Scotland", Peter said, "It's beautiful - all those majestic mountains, fantastic rivers for fishing, lots of landscape for humans to build good driving roads through once they invent the car, pure water for making whisky, and so on. OK, maybe the weather's not that good, but at least there'll never be droughts to cause the crops to fail".

"Yeah, I made a good job of that country," said God.

"I was wondering though", said Peter. "Isn't it a bit unfair to let the Scottish people have all that stuff?"

"I agree", God said, with a smug look. "Wait till you see the fucking neighbours I've given them!"
