...and this (the cross of St. Patrick) represents Northern Ireland (and it does):

What are the Welsh? Chopped liver?
Inquiring minds want to know.
Wales has 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.
