History With Hilbert

The History of the Scottish Flag (2018x24)

Air date: May 04, 2018

One of the most prominent parts of the Union Flag is the Scottish Flag or Saltire, which is a bonny flag in its own right as well. In this video, as part 2 of my series on the Union Flag and the flags that make it up, I'm going to look at why this flag became the Scottish flag, what's the symbolism behind it and which ones came before it. Lots of vexiology, historiography and etymology to come, strap in because this, is History with Hilbert!
