Summary

This is the flag of Scotland, St. Andrew's Saltire. The colour is used here is the origional colour one would find in the Union flag and used as the national flag before a 2003 committee of the Scottish Parliament met to examine a petition that the Scottish Government adopt the Pantone 300 colour as a standard.

The base image is from the main Scottish flag. FOTW has information about the colour.

Licensing

This work is based on a work in the public domain. It has been digitally enhanced and/or modified. This derivative work has been (or is hereby) released into the public domain by its author, Hoshie. This applies worldwide.

In some countries this may not be legally possible; if so:

Hoshie grants anyone the right to use this work for any purpose, without any conditions, unless such conditions are required by law.

	The copyright situation of this work is theoretically uncertain, because in the country of origin copyright lasts 70 years after the death of the author, and the date of the author's death is unknown. However, the date of creation of the work was over 120 years ago, and it is thus a reasonable assumption that the copyright has expired (see here for the community discussion). Do not use this template if the date of death of the author is known. You must also include a United States public domain tag to indicate why this work is in the public domain in the United States. Note that a few countries have copyright terms longer than 70 years: Mexico has 100 years, Jamaica has 95 years, Colombia has 80 years, and Guatemala and Samoa have 75 years. This image may not be in the public domain in these countries, which moreover do not implement the rule of the shorter term. Honduras has a general copyright term of 75 years, but it does implement the rule of the shorter term. Copyright may extend on works created by French who died for France in World War II (more information), Russians who served in the Eastern Front of World War II (known as the Great Patriotic War in Russia) and posthumously rehabilitated victims of Soviet repressions (more information).
