The Union Jack, also known as the Union Flag, is the national flag of the United Kingdom. Its history dates back to 1606 when King James VI and I combined the crosses of England and Scotland to create a single flag. Over time, the flag has undergone changes, with the addition of St. Patrick's Cross in 1801 to represent Ireland.
  Key Facts About the Union Jack:
- Design: The flag features three crosses: St. George's Cross (England), St. Andrew's Cross (Scotland), and St. Patrick's Cross (Ireland).
- Terminology: Both "Union Jack" and "Union Flag" are used interchangeably, although "Union Jack" originally referred to the flag         when flown at sea.
- Usage: The flag is flown on government buildings, by civilians, and at sea by military vessels.
- Symbolism: The Union Jack represents the unity of England, Scotland, and Ireland (now Northern Ireland) under a single flag.
  Interesting Uses of the Union Jack:
- Former Colonies: The Union Jack appears in the flags of several former British colonies, including Australia, New Zealand, Tuvalu, and Fiji.
- Fashion: The Union Jack has been a popular symbol in fashion, particularly during the British Invasion movement of the 1960s and the "Cool Britannia" era of the 1990s.
- Corporate Branding: Companies like British Airways and Reebok have used the Union Jack in their branding.
