The thistle is the national emblem of Scotland.This is how, according to a legend, that plant came to be chosen as a badge.In very ancient times the Vikings landed somewhere in the east coast of Scotland to settle the country.The Scots gathered their army and took their stations behind the River Tay. After a long march they pitched their camp and rested, not expecting the enemy before the next day.The Vikings however were near; noticing that no guards were protecting the camp, they crossed theTay, intending to take the Scots by surprise.So they took off their shoes to make the least noise. But one of the Vikings stepped on a thistle.The sharp pain he felt caused him to cry.The alarm was given in the Scots' camp.The Vikings were put to flight and as an unexpected help from the thistle, the Scots took it as their national emblem.
