Loyalist symbols and flags
Loyalist symbols and flags primarily represent allegiance to the British Crown during conflicts such as the American Revolution and the Irish War of Independence. Common Loyalist symbols include the Union Jack, which embodies British unity, and the red, white, and blue colors, often seen in Loyalist flags. Various regional flags, like the Ulster Banner in Northern Ireland, signify Loyalist identity. These symbols convey loyalty to British heritage and pride in one's cultural background, reflecting complex historical, political, and social narratives tied to colonialism and national identity.
