United Kingdom Flag Sale: Discovering the origins and meaning of the Union Jack

The british flag is made up of a combination of the crosses of the patron saints of England, Scotland and Ireland, the three countries that form the British crown with Wales. It is the symbol of the symbols of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, the independent monarchical state which consists of Great Britain (England, Scotland and Wales) and Northern Ireland since 1707 which is officially represented by Queen Elizabeth II of England. The United Kingdom is a member of various international and intergovernmental organisations such as the Commonwealth, NATO, the Council of Europe and the United Nations. The UK is currently considered the 6th largest power in the world after the USA, the EU, China, Japan and Germany.

The Union Jack was first created in 1606 when the crowns of England and Scotland decided to unite under the reign of Jacques Stuart. It was officially in 1707, when Great Britain was created, that it became the British symbol. First composed of the cross of St. George + the English flag and the cross of St. Andrew x the Scottish flag, the cross of St. Patrick x, patron saint of Ireland, was added in 1801 when the Kingdom of Ireland officially joined the unified kingdom of Great Britain and gave birth to the present United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland.

The Union Jack is one of the world's cruciferous flags: the flags that display the symbol of the Christian cross, symbolizing Christ's crucifixion. The three crosses of the Union Flag are indeed Christian symbols of the Patron Saints of British countries.

Thus, the cross of Saint George is a red cross on a white background of + shape. It is found in particular on the famous English flag but it has many vexillological and heraldic uses including in Italy, Spain, Germany, France and some Orthodox countries.

The cross of Saint Andrew wears a white saltire on a blue background (an x-shaped cross), in heraldic language. It is said to be blasé d'azur in the silver saltire. This cross is found on the flag of Scotland but also on the flag of Nova Scotia, one of the provinces of Canada with the cross in reverse colours and the coat of arms of Scotland.

Finally, the cross of Saint Patrick is a red saltire on a white background in the shape of an x, in heraldic vocabulary "it is blasoned with silver in the saltire Gules". It can be found on other flags such as the Jersey, Alabama or Florida flags.
