Arbroath is a large coastal town in [[Angus]], [[Scotland]], which was formerly home to a large fishing fleet, but, as a result of the [[Socialism|Socialist]] policies of the [[Liberalism|Liberal]] [[European Union]], is now only home to a single ship.<ref>[http://www.alastairmcintosh.com/articles/1998_fishing_news.htm]</ref>
==Declaration of Arbroath==
The Declaration of Arbroath is considered one of the founding documents of the Scottish nation. Written by the leading noblemen of Scotland to [[Pope]] John XXII in 1320 and signed in the now ruined Arbroath Abbey, it asserts Scotland's independence from [[England]] following the attempts of King [[Edward I of England]] to annex England's northern neighbour (See [[Scottish Wars of Independence]]).
==Distinctive products==
Arbroath smokies are a distinctive kind of smoked [[haddock]] made exclusively in the town.
