Scotland County, Administrative county in North Carolina, US
Scotland County stretches across southern North Carolina with Laurinburg as its capital, featuring agricultural fields, forests, and the Lumber River waterways.
The territory, formed in 1899 from Richmond County, received its name from the Highland Scots who settled the region during the early 1720s.
The Scottish Heritage Center at St Andrews Presbyterian College preserves numerous texts and artifacts documenting the early Scottish settlement patterns in North Carolina.
The county maintains strong agricultural production with corn, cotton, tobacco, and soybeans as primary crops, while manufacturing focuses on textiles and medical equipment.
Camp Mackall Military Reservation, established during World War II, served as a specialized training ground for paratroopers and glider pilots.
