United Kingdom flag

The Union Flag, or Union Jack, combines the red cross of St George for England, the white saltire of St Andrew for Scotland, and the red saltire of St Patrick for Ireland. The red saltire is counterchanged against the white so that neither cross takes precedence. The current version dates from the union with Ireland in 1801.
