The Union Jack is the national flag of the United Kingdom, combining elements from the flags of England, Scotland, and Ireland. It was officially formed on January 1, 1801, following the union of Great Britain and Ireland. The design features the red cross of St George, the white saltire of St Andrew, and the red saltire of St Patrick. The flag is a symbol of the UK's unity and heritage.
