Pravilno!
The white rose stands for Yorkshire and the red rose for Lancashire. The emblems go back to the Wars of the Roses in the 15th century, and today the rivalry is mostly shown in sport such as cricket.
Bela vrtnica predstavlja Yorkshire, rdeča pa Lancashire. Simbola segata v vojni rdeče in bele vrtnice v 15. stoletju, danes pa se tekmovalnost kaže predvsem v športu, na primer v kriketu.
