I have two questions about Scottish Independence:

If Scotland does become a independent country and separate from the United Kingdom, what with happen to any Scottish people with knighthoods?

If I understand the rules properly only a British-born citizen can be eligible for a Knighthood and if Scotland goes independent then although these folk were British-born at the time of accepting their title they will become a foreigner so will they still be eligible for their knighthood?

If Scotland goes independent what will happen to Scots living in the rest of the UK? They hold British Passports so how will it work to apply for valid Scottish Passports and will they get deported for being illegal migrants unless they apply for work/residence visas?
