Trivia

• The flag the Virginia Colonists use is the flag of England, which was in place until England merged with Scotland in 1707 to form an earlier form of the Union Jack, which is depicted in the Grand Campaign as the flag of Great Britain. The flag of England is St. George's cross, which is shared as a flag by another faction in Empire: Total War, Genoa.
