Answer The flag of the United Kingdom is actually a combination of three flags representing England, Scotland and Northern Ireland.

The colours of the Union Flag of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland come from a combination of the following:

The cross of St George (representing England): red cross on a white background .

The cross of St Andrew (representing Scotland): white saltire on a blue background (added to the flag after the Act of Union between England and Scotland in 1707).

The cross of St Patrick (representing Northern Ireland): Red saltire on a white background (added to the flag after the Act of Union between Great Britain and Ireland in 1801).
