Dunbroch

The Kingdom of Dunbroch is a Scottish kingdom that arose from the union of four clans that were once feuding with each other.

History of the association:
The original clans were Dunbroch, MacGuffin, Mackintosh and Dingwall.
Due to the threat of invaders (Vikings, Romans and northern tribes), the clans united under the rule of Fergus, the leader of the strongest clan.
Following the victory, the kingdom of Dunbroch was created. Fergus became king, and his wife, Elinor, queen.

• King Fergus *- a brave warrior, Merida's father.

• Queen Elinor *- a diplomat who maintains peace between the clans.

Merida *is the main character in the Disney/Pixar animated film Brave (2012), a 16-year-old princess of the Scottish kingdom of Dunbroch, the daughter of King Fergus and Queen Elinor.

• Personality: *freedom-loving, brave, and determined, but also stubborn and impulsive. She strives to choose her own path and resists the pressure of tradition—in particular, she refuses the imposed arranged marriage between clans. Despite her rebellious nature, she truly loves her family and is willing to sacrifice for them.

• Appearance: *bright red thick curly hair (over 1,500 strands in the animation), sky-blue eyes, a slender, athletic figure. She wears a dark turquoise dress with slits for archery, a black cloak with a gold buckle, and always carries a bow and quiver of arrows.

• Skills: *One of the best archers in the kingdom (trained since childhood), knows how to fence, rides an excellent horse (her horse is Angus), loves racing in the Scottish hills and exploring the surrounding countryside.

• Role in the plot: *In an attempt to change her fate, she turns to a sorceress and receives an enchanted cake. After Queen Elinor eats it and turns into a bear, Merida learns to understand her mother, saves her brothers (who have also become bear cubs), and searches for a way to lift the curse. The key to salvation is a tapestry that must be mended before dawn. Ultimately, the heroine realizes that true courage lies in the ability to admit mistakes, forgive, and love.

• Uniqueness: Pixar's first heroine in the Disney lineup, a character without a traditional love story, emphasizing family relationships and personal growth. Her story emphasizes the value of dialogue and understanding within the family.

Parents
Fergus is the King of Scotland, head of the Dunbroch clan, and Merida's father. He is a brave warrior who once fought a giant bear named Mordu and lost a leg. Although he sees nothing wrong with his daughter's hobbies, Fergus does not dare contradict his wife.
Elinor is the Queen of Scotland, Fergus's wife, and Merida's mother. She is a strict and demanding woman who strives to control her daughter's every move. She fears that if Merida is not married, war could break out.

Brothers
Three younger triplets: Hamish, Hubert, and Harris. They resemble their older sister: they have the same curly red hair, fair skin, round faces, and blue eyes. They wear emerald plaid kilts. The brothers are mischievous and mischievous, whom Merida calls "little devils." They have a penchant for sweets and use various tricks to steal them, especially from Nanny Maudie. However, in critical situations, they show resourcefulness and are willing to help the family. For example, they saved the enchanted Elinor from the guards.
Merida is the only one who can easily tell the triplets apart.
