Since the postition of President of the United States of America was established in 1789 just 45 men have held the title.
Of those - perhaps surprisingly - only four have made an official visit to Scotland during their presidency.
But many more have visited in a personal capacity, often due to their family links to the country - and even more often due to the quality of golf course Scotland offers.
Ahead of an official state visit later this year, President Trump will be arriving in Scotland on Friday (July 25) for five days to visit both his golf courses - as well as meeting with both Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer and First Minister John Swinney.
Here are all the Presidents to have visited Scotland before him - and what they were doing here.
5. Franklin D. Roosevelt (President from 1933-1945)
There is no official record of Franklin D. Roosevelt visiting Scotland, but it's rumoured he ventured north of the border when in Britain during World War 2 to visit the graves of his ancestors in Kirk of the Forest, in Selkirk. | Getty Images
6. Harry S Truman (President from 1945-1953)
Perhaps the briefest visit by a US President to Scotland was that of Harry S. Truman. Just three months into his Presidency he made a flying visit to Glasgow to meet his soldier nephew who was stationed on the Queen Elizabeth which was docked in the city. | Getty Images
7. Dwight D. Eisenhower (President from 1953-1961)
Dwight D. Eisenhower was the first US President to visit Scotland on an official Presidential visit - and the only to visit Balmoral Castle, where he met with Queen Elizabeth II in 1959 (pictured). He also stayed at Culzean Castle, on the Ayrshire Coast four times, including once when he was President, also during his 1959 visit. When the owners of the castle gifted the building to the National Trust for Scotland in 1945, it was on the proviso that an apartment be given to Eisenhower in recognition of his role as Supreme Commander of the Allied Forces in Europe during World War 2. The then-General first visited the castle a year later. | Getty Images
8. John F Kennedy (President from 1961-1963)
JFK made a couple of visits to Scotland as a young man. Most famously at the age of 22 he was sent to Glasgow by his father, who was the the US Ambassador to Great Britain, in 1939 to visit American survivors of the sinking of the TSS Athenia. The shop was sunk by a U Boat on its journey from Glasgow to Montreal, heightening the chances of America being dragged into World War 2. JFK's mission was to charm the survivors and make that less likely - and it saw him deliver his first public speech at the city's Beresford Hotel on Sauchiehall Street. A year earlier he joined his father on a trip to Aberdeen to lay a wreath at a memorial to a Connecticut church leader at St Andrew’s Cathedral on King Street. | Getty Images
