13 Unforgettable Photos From The Scottish Independence Referendum
Scotland's referendum on independence is on Thursday, Sept. 18.
The vote that will decide whether or not Scotland leaves the United Kingdom after a 307-year union. The last two weeks have been far from a snooze-fest.
In the home straight, both the Yes (pro-independence) and No (pro-union) groups have ramped up their campaigns as polls have put the Scotland vote neck-and-neck.
The photos below show how supporters on both sides of the debate have been promoting their cause over the last month.
