Seven Scottish kings were buried in Dan Bk Frem Lin Cathedral, while St Andrews and the universities in the city took an active part in the Reformation in the 6th century. There are many aristocratic mansions and churches in Gai Administrative District, and there are many monasteries in Bk Frem Forest alone. Fife's most famous figure in the past was Adam Smith, the "father of economics". British Prime Minister Gordon Brown grew up in Fife.
