I’m so happy we have new history videos that can be shown in some schools…which is sad.

+preservingbattlefields Thanks for the summary. The Union Jack and the cantons of all British ensigns now have a saltire geules inescutcheoned on the saltire argent from 1802; the croise geules stands right where it was from 1710.

Interestingly the leader of the opposition, Charles James Fox, and a large faction of the Whig Party dressed in the colours of the Continental Army during the Revolutionary War as a sign of solidarity with the colonists.

A friend of mine in Wales🏴 actually said it best that, in regards to military might and overall mentality, it could be said that the U.S.🇺🇸 is the son closest to the father🇬🇧. Canada🇨🇦 is the well-behaved first born but Uncle Sam is the rebellious son more like the father in his prime (which the father hates to admit😂).

Parliament itself is not talked about much in history except for the rallying cry "No Taxation Without Representation" used as protest during the Revolutionary War.
