The Succession of the Maid

A throne
Despite the problems it’s agreed that Margaret should be Queen. Everyone’s come to Perth to wait for her to arrive for her coronation. But there’s terrible news. She’s died on the journey.

Robert Bruce and John Balliol both think they should be King, and Bruce has arrived with armed supporters. There could be a civil war. Lots of people would be killed and the country could be destroyed in the fighting.


What can you do?


Get ready for civil war.

Try to find a peaceful way to settle the dispute.
