    Hello Thande, :) The Duchy of York once existed and was ruled by the Duke of York. It was apart of the Kingdom of England. The "White Rose" motif (i.e., the House of Lancaster) is actually BANG-ON for the Flag of New York. New York is directly related to "old" York (i.e., in todays...

    Hello lbo, :) Another Nation Flag "quartered" over some other Flag? No. You are incorrect about the structure of the British Ensigns. The Union Jack is in the CANTON (i.e., it is an intergral part). The British Ensigns (Red, Blue, White, Yellow, Green) are ONE UNIT, and the distinguishing...

    Hello lbo, :) The Ensign (i.e., Red Ensign, Blue Ensign, White Ensign, and the less common Green Ensign (old Ireland), and Yellow Ensign (the Associated State of Niue) ), is a common theme for modern countries that were Colonised by the UK. The Union Jack in the Canton is "part-and-parcel" of...

    The Union Jack in the Canton ...trival? What the Americans choose to do with their American Flag is their perogative. However, to extend the replacement of the Canton to Australian, Canadian and New Zealander Flags is not appropriate. Not at all.

    Did you know the Grand Union Flag (1775-1777) of the United States of America was the FAVOURITE of George Washington? Your own first President loved it. Additionally, Prospect Hill, January 1, 1776 http://www.muldermedia.com/prospecthill/images/flag_paintingsm.jpg Look familar eh? Before...

    Free Nation(s)? Of course Australia, Canada, New Zealand are free independent countries. You are simply expressing an American bias. Your own flag is directly derived from the British East India Company flag. Look for yourself...

    Hello GTD Aqutiaine, thank you very much for the welcome, I appreciate it alot. With regard to the present Canadian Flag (the Maple Leaf Flag of 1965) I personally HATE it. I believe that it is very poor design, and has no balanced symbolism whatsoever. http://flagspot.net/flags/ca.html I...
