ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Scottish Government

The Scottish Government is like a big group of grown-ups who make important decisions for Scotland. They are in charge of making laws, running services like schools and hospitals, and making sure people are safe and happy. The head of the Scottish Government is called the First Minister, and they have lots of other grown-ups who work with them to make sure everything runs smoothly. They also work closely with the UK government, who are in charge of things like defense and foreign affairs. The Scottish Government wants to make sure that Scotland is a great place for everyone to live, work and play, and they work hard to make that happen!
