History of the Scots language

The growth and distribution of Scots in Scotland and Ulster:
  Northumbrian Old English by the beginning of the 9th century in the northern portion of the Anglo-Saxon kingdom of Northumbria, now modern southeastern Scotland
  Early Scots by the beginning of the 15th century
  Present-day extent of Modern Scots

The history of the Scots language refers to how Anglic varieties spoken in parts of Scotland developed into modern Scots.
