The original Americans are descended from the English. (Native Americans are not original Americans as they did not found the USA, they had their own confederations that had nothing to do with America).

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😂).

Did you know

Prince Edward Duke of Kent lived in Quebec City and Michigan territory was under the English monarchy with a English Prince in North America.
(Known as the Prince of Quebec)from 1791-1793 this was when Michigan territory was a part of Ontario / Quebec and a member of Parliament.
Detroit was transferred to Quebec under the Quebec Act of 1774 .
It was then the third-largest city in the Province of Quebec, after Montreal and Quebec. 1792 Detroit, including settlements on both sides of the river, holds its first election, sending
three representatives to the Parliament of Upper Canada.
The Act Against Slavery, 1793, an anti-slavery act passed in Upper Canada. The Act was created partially in response to Loyalist refugees who brought slaves with them.
Michigan Territory was a part of Upper Canada from 1790-1796 Under British rule Michigan remained a part of Canada. And again in August 1812- Until September 1813 During the war of 1812 or known as the Anglo-American war when Col/general Proctor was temporary governor of Michigan territory.
The British retained control of Detroit and Michigan after the American Revolution. When Quebec split into Lower and Upper Canada in 1791, Michigan was part of Kent County, Upper Canada. It held its first democratic elections in August 1792 to send delegates to the new provincial parliament at Newark (now Niagara-on-the-Lake).

Isn’t St Augustine the first European settlement in the US?

I must admit, the Grand Union flag was a very nice flag . That's probably how it would've stayed if not for the Revolution

[mrman]

What about the George Rex Flag used by New York in the early days of the Independence War?

[jauntyangle]

I understand that England's three lions are actually leopards from Richard I coat of arms.

Union jack is the flag on a ship or boat. Usually small flag.
Union flag is the flag on land 🇬🇧👍

[white-dragon]

The last one, the three lions, how can you call that having the Union Flag on their flag? Also, the flag with the stripes and the Union Flag in the corner was based on the British East India Company flag. Oh, and it's only called the "Union Jack" when it's flown on a ship.

The Grand American Union Jack was not 1777 it was 1775-1776.

[magicmoogii]

The reason why a lot of countries had union jacks is because they spoke English
