The flags of England, Scotland and Northern Ireland make up the Union Flag. Wales was assumed to be part of England at the time! Incidentally it is only a Union Jack when flown on the jackstaff of a Royal Navy ship otherwise it is the Union Flag!

Yeah, that's right! Well, England, Scotland and Northern Ireland. I really don't think that's fair, though - what about Wales?

Yes. it's the so-called flags of the patron saints of these three countries.
It was not changed after the Republic of Ireland gained independence, so it still represents the whole of Ireland.
