More off-topic information:
The Union Jack, as it's
name indicates, is the flag adopted as the
flag for the United Kingdom upon
the Union of England and Scotland,
and modified after the Union with
Ireland. It is a combination of the
English flag of St. George (red
cross (+) on white background), the
Scottish flag of St. Andrew (diagonal
white cross (x) on blue
background) and the Irish flag of St. Patrick
(diagonal red cross (x)
on white
background).
