6. history of the union jack
 The origins of the flag date back to 1603, when
James VI of Scotland inherited the English and
Irish thrones (as James I), thereby uniting the
crowns of England, Scotland and Ireland in a
personal union (which remained separate
states). On 12 April 1606, a new flag to
represent this regal union between England and
Scotland was specified in a royal decree,
according to which the flag of England (a red
cross on a white background, known as St
George's Cross), and the flag of Scotland (a
white saltire on a blue background, known as
the Saltire or St Andrew's Cross), would be
joined together, forming the flag of Great
Britain and first union flag.

7. History of England
 Guy Fawkes Night, also known as Guy Fawkes Day, Bonfire Night and
Firework Night, is an annual commemoration observed on 5 November,
primarily in Great Britain. Its history begins with the events of 5 November
1605, when Guy Fawkes, a member of the Gunpowder Plot, was arrested
while guarding explosives the plotters had placed beneath the House of Lords.
Celebrating the fact that King James I had survived the attempt on his life,
people lit bonfires around London, and months later the introduction of the
Observance of 5th November Act enforced an annual public day of
thanksgiving for the plot's failure.
Remember, remember,
the fifth of November,
Gunpowder, treason and
plot.
We see no reason why
Gunpowder treason
Should ever be forgot
