    Why was this battle important?

    I think it was like the "big battle" of the war that kind of ended it if I remember correctly

    Was it the battle that gave independence to the kingdom of Scotland?

    O never mind...

    The Battle of Bannockburn (Scottish Gaelic: Blàr Allt nam Bànag or Scottish Gaelic: Blàr Allt a' Bhonnaich) on 23 and 24 June 1314 was a Scottish victory by King of Scots Robert the Bruce against the army of King Edward II of England in the First War of Scottish Independence. Though it did not bring overall victory in the war, which would go on for 14 more years, it was a landmark in Scottish history.
