East India Trading Company flags

During its history, the East India Trading Company has used at least two different flags, one blue with the Company logo, and the other striped, with the British Union Jack.

History
The first EITC flag was a stripped red and white flag with the St George's Cross in the canton. The Cross represented the Kingdom of England. That flag was used by the Company during the period of 1600 to 1707.

In 1707, the Act of Union between England and Scotland created the Kingdom of Great Britain. The new British flag, the Union Jack, consisted of a combined St George's cross and a St Andrew's cross. The Company flag was quickly changed to include the Union Jack in the canton. The flag was prominently displayed on the Company's forts.

Sometimes before the War Against Piracy, the Company adopted another flag. The new flag was a blue flag with the white Company logo. The flag was used both on the Company's forts and ships.
