Description
St George’s Cross (or the Cross of St George) is a red cross on a white background, this ensign has been associated with Saint George since the time of the crusades. Historically, the cross appeared on many flags, emblems and coats of arms, such as that of the Swabian League in late Medieval Germany and it remains the emblem of several countries and cities which have, or had, St George as a patron saint, notably England, Georgia, Aragon, Genoa and Barcelona.. It is also the basis for the Four Moors flag of Sardinia. Guernsey was permitted to use it as its state flag between 1936 and 1985.
