英国国旗的所代表的意义,历史由来?要英文版的哦,请大侠们帮帮忙哦!!!

如题所述

俗称“米字旗”,正式称呼是“the Union Flag",也常常称为“the Union Jack"。Jack是海军用语,指悬挂在舰首的旗帜,英国军舰舰首都悬挂国旗,因而得名。Union Flag是意为“联合旗帜”。

它是深蓝底色的红白米字旗。这面旗帜由英格兰的白底红色正十字旗,苏格兰的蓝底白色斜十字旗和爱尔兰的白底红色斜十字旗合一而成。后来爱尔兰岛的一部分脱离了英国,国旗也未再改变。国旗上没有代表威尔士地区的形象,因为设计时,威尔士早已与英格兰合并了。英国国旗上的十字分别代表英格兰守护神圣乔治、苏格兰守护神圣安德鲁以及爱尔兰守护神圣帕特里克。

��英格兰圣乔治的白地红十字旗产生于1200年, 随后被英格兰采纳为国旗。苏格兰的圣安德鲁的蓝地白色“X”型十字旗,最早于8世纪时出现,但直至13世纪时才被苏格兰正式用作国旗。1606年,詹姆斯一世统一英格兰和苏格兰时,将这两面旗帜图案重叠起来,作为大不列颠的国旗。爱尔兰的圣帕特里克的白地红色“x"型十字旗,最早是爱尔兰菲茨诺德家族的旗帜;1801年,爱尔兰与大不 列颠联合组成王国后,这面旗帜又与大不列颠国旗重叠,最后形成 了大不列颠及北爱尔兰联合王国的这面构图奇特的“米字旗”

The Flag of EnglandThe Flag of England is the St George's Cross. The red cross appeared in as an emblem of England during the Middle Ages and the Crusades and is one of the earliest known emblems representing England. It achieved status as the national flag of England during the 16th century.

Saint George became the patron saint of England in the 13th century, and the legend of Saint George slaying a dragon dates from the 12th century.

Origins

The Knights Templar Cross, hypothesised as a possible origin for the Flag of England.The exact origins of the Flag of England are unclear and have multiple supporting theories; though it is known that the flag appearred during the Middle Ages. It has been recorded that the first known recorded use of the St George's Cross as an emblem (but not as a flag) of England was in a roll of account relating to the Welsh War of 1277.[1]

On theory is that the flag is thought to be derived from that of the Knights Templar.[citation needed]

Another theory as to the origins of the flag is that the flag of Genoa was adopted by England and the City of London in 1190 for their ships entering the Mediterranean to benefit from the protection of the powerful Geonoese fleet.[citation needed] The maritime Republic of Genoa was rising and going to become, together with its rival Venice, one of the most important powers in the world. The English Monarch paid an annual tribute to the Doge of Genoa for this privilege. Between England and Genoa, two mercantile and sea-faring nations, there has ever been a special and long-standing relationship. Genoa is generally regarded as "the most English town of Italy".

St George's cross did not achieve any sort of status as the national flag until the 16th century, when all other saints' banners were abandoned during the Reformation. The earliest record of St George's flag at sea, as an English flag in conjunction with royal banners but no other saintly flags, was 1545.[2]

Proportions
The flag consists of a red cross on a white field with the cross having a width of 1/5 of the height of the flag. The flag proportion is 5:3.

Union

The flag of England was incorporated into what is now the Union Flag.When the Kingdom of England and the Kingdom of Scotland were united in a personal union under James VI/I, the Cross of Saint George was combined with the Cross of St. Andrew (representing Scotland) to form the original Union Flag (or "Union Jack"). This flag later became the national flag of the Kingdom of Great Britain, and was combined with the flag of St. Patrick (representing Ireland) in 1801, producing the Union Flag of the United Kingdom.

Other uses

The flag of England was incorporated into what is now the Flag of the Canadian province of AlbertaThe flag is incorporated in the flag of the Canadian province of Alberta, by way of the coat of arms of the Hudson's Bay Company and the province's arms.
