What flag has a red background and white cross?
Denmark and Switzerland; they are of two different designs The Danish cross is the same as used in the flags of Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden all in different colours. It is basically a Latin Cross laying on its side. The Swiss flag I believe is square with equal sided white (Greek) cross in the middle. The reverse of the Swiss flag is used by the Red Cross.
What does the English flag look like?
It has a yellow sun, and in the backround there is blue and white wavy lines and then a red cross and then red diagnol lines coming out from that and white is around that and blue is in the backround and there is a crown in the middle of the red cross! The red cross is squished in the top. It's confusing but just go to Google Images and type in "British Columbia's Flag" to see what I mean!
Why is the french flag red white and blue?
Blue and red were the colours of the town of Paris (the colours were meant to honour the two patrons saints of the town, Saint-Denis and Saint-Martin). The emblem of the town is still blue and red today. White was the colour of the monarchy, especially for the last kings before the revolution. At the beginning of the revolution, the king Louis XVI visited the city hall and in a gesture towards the populace, he took the blue and red cocard and put it on his hat next to the white one. The associated colours were chosen by the revolutionaries to create the French flag, officially adopted in 1974.
What is the original flag of England?
The cross of St George, not the Union Jack, is the flag of England. It is a red cross on a white field. The official proportions for the national flag of England is 3:5, with the cross being 1/5 of the height of the flag wide. When King James VI of Scotland ascended to the English throne, thereby becoming James I of England, the national flags of England and Scotland on land continued to be, respectively, the red St George's cross and the white St Andrew's cross. At sea, however, from about 1606 a combination of the two flags was used which was the predecessor to the current Union Flag (often called the "Union Jack" although technically a "Jack" is a naval flag only). The combination of St George's Cross and St. Andrew's Cross was incorporated into the early (pre-indepencence) American flag. The current flag of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland which incorporates the Cross of St. Patrick (the diagonal red cross) was adopted in 1801.
