The Union Flag Composition

联合旗的组成

来源:教材第19页

The Union Flag (also called the Union Jack) combines three crosses: the red cross of St George (England) on a white background; the diagonal white cross of St Andrew (Scotland) on a blue background; and the diagonal red cross of St Patrick (Ireland) on a white background. The Welsh dragon is not on the Union Flag because Wales was already united with England when the first Union Flag was created in 1606.
