On November 29th 1512 the Auld Alliance was renewed between Scotland and France..
To mark the occasion, James IV, King of Scots, was presented with a 35-gun warship by the French ambassador, de La Motte.
Henry VIII was flexing his muscles and threatening war, he was feeling isolated after his break from the Catholic church, the king of Scotland, James IV, his brother in law was steadfast in keeping with the Catholic church, and so it was that France approached the Scots to renew their pact.
The "Historic Works of James IV. (1488-1513), King of Scotland wrote that......
"The 29th of November, this same year, [1512,] the ancient league and amity renewed and confirmed between the crowns of Scotland and France; at which time, the Lord ambassador de la Motte, from his master the French King, presents King James with a great ship of 35 pieces of ordnance, laden with wine and ammunition of all sorts, for war."
James IV liked his ships and out of all our monarchs I would say that he had the best navy.
Fast forward 46 years and James IV, and James IV had come and gone, Queen Mary was in France, and had earlier in the year married the heir to the throne, the future Francis II. Mary's mother Mary de Guise was ruling on her behalf in Scotland and on November 29th 1558 she called a parliament to strengthen the relations between the two countries.....again I refer to Historical works.....Mary (1542-1586), Queen of Scots....
"The Queen Regent calls a parliament at Edinburgh, the 29th day of November, this year, [1558,] wherein the French ambassador presents his master’s letter to the estates, which being read, and the priviliges of Scotsmen within the realm of France, ratified in parliament, with the act of naturalisation of each, [reciprocally,] of Scots in France, and French in Scotland, without more the parliament breaks up."
So the upshot was that any citizen of either country could settle in the country of their choice.
