The Royal Scots were raised in 1633 during the reign of Charles I of Scotland. It was the oldest, and most senior Regiment in the British Army. 

It remained as one of the few Regiments not to be amalgamated until 2006 when the Royal Regiment of Scotland was formed. Together with the Kings Own Scottish Borderers, the Royal Scots formed a new battalion, the Royal Scots Borderers, 1st Battalion Royal Regiment of Scotland.
