Union Jack Trivia:
In 1603 James VI of Scotland inherited the English and Irish throne uniting then with Scotland. A new flag was designed to reflect this 'union'.
The jury is still out with reference to 'Jack' in the title, either being a shortened name for James or referring to the flag flown from a bowsprit of a ship.
