    Is there any reason why the St. David's flag of Wales is not included in the Union Jack?

    Question #119977. Asked by flem-ish. (Jan 18 11 5:33 AM)

    Wales had no explicit recognition in the Union Flag as it had been a part of the Kingdom of England since being annexed by Edward I of England in 1282 and its full integration by the Laws in Wales Acts 1535–1542, and was therefore represented by the flag of England.
