Клановая система была разрушена в конце XVIII и в начале XIX века в результате «очистки имений» шотландских лордов от населения.

Шотландская традиционная клановая система XIV—XVIII веков представляла собой своеобразную связь патриархально-родового и феодального укладов жизни, причём оба строя были неразрывно связаны и служили взаимной основой и опорой друг другу.

Клановая система предоставляла питательную среду для якобитских восстаний начала XVIII века ввиду удалённости горных кланов от центров администрации и их к быстрой мобилизации. Высадка Стюартов в Шотландии привела к расколу внутри ряда кланов. Известны случаи, когда глава клана не выезжал из замка, тогда как члены клана принимали активное участие в восстании.

После подавления восстания 1745 года герцог Камберлендский организовал депортацию целых кланов, которые поддерживали Стюартов. С точки зрения сегодняшнего дня эти действия представляли собой этнические чистки. За пределами шотландских полков было запрещено ношение одежды с рисунком из тартана, которая позволяла членам одного клана быстро идентифицировать друг друга.
