"Scotia" was derived from the Latin name for the Gaels: Scoti. The use of the word changed over time, and "Scotia" became a term for what is now called Scotland. "Scotia" was also used to refer to Ireland. In the text, the author provides a quotation that says that "Major Scotia" refers to Ireland.
