Real-world History
Arbroath Abbey was the site of an assembly of Scottish leaders on April 6, 1320, who sent a petition to the Pope, the Declaration of Abroath. The Declaration stated their goal of winning and securing their independence from England, whose then-king, Edward II (son of Edward I), had been trying to conquer them, as his father had done.
