National Flags; Tell Me About Yours

I'm someone who really loves national flags, their symbolism, and everything about them. It's a personal hobby of mine to memorize the flags of the world.

I'm interested about your nations' flags. If you could post an image of it and explain what made you think of it and what it means to your nation, I'd really appreciate it.

I just recently changed mine. I had been using a red and black variation of a flag for an alliance I'm in, in a different game.

As much as I love this flag, I noticed that most nations I had seen around here had flags that could actually be flown by a nation. They were flat and not laden with photoshop effects and filters. So, I figured I needed a new flag. While my nation was not initially intended to be Celtic in any way (I was thinking more Eastern European), I love Celtic symbolism and heraldry, so I went with this as my new flag. If you'd like to read about its symbolism, check out my national symbols factbook.

So, ya, if you would be willing to post your national flag and tell me about it I would really appreciate it.

I had something about my flag's symbolism in an in-game Factbook, but I deleted it. I can vaguely remember what it said.
  • The red and the hammer and sickle, rather predictably, symbolise communism.
  • The red "rays" symbolise how communism spread across Quinntopia during the Great Liberation (i.e. the communist revolution which overthrew the ruling military junta and established the People's Paradise).
  • The black background symbolises anarchy. Because the rays extend across it, it shows that the anarchy is controlled (i.e. by the existence of the People's Government).
  • The star symbolises a beacon - basically how Quinntopians think that Quinntopian Communism is one of the greatest examples of successful communism, and that Quinntopia's example acts as a beacon for all communists.

The Flag of East Moreland.

In terms of RL it started off as a joke but I actually like my flag now.

The Red squares symbolise the blood spilt by those loyal to Robert (First King of East Moreland) at the battle of Greenflowers. As Robert was about to be defeated a Legion formed of peasants came to the battlefield and their numbers swung the battle in his favour. By the end of the day their peasant clothing was stained Red, this inspired the name of East Moreland's elite military the Red Legion.

The White symbolises the peace that the Kingdom wishes to create for its citiziens.

The castle symbol is to represent the fortress built in Northfort which Robert had built upon his victory. Today that is the Royal palace at Northfort.

THe HoneyBadger was added in the early 19th Century after the King was inspired by the animals bravery, ingenuity and ruthless streak.

Matthew, I really like how you use traditional communist symbolism, but you did something with it that's unique to your nation that doesn't just replicate real national flags.

I also really like your Independent Order version of the flag. Especially since the dragon seems to be snarling, to me.

Posted Image


And Dave, yours was one of the few flags I had actually checked out that made me realize that I may want a realistic one. I like the heraldic castles and medieval feel that your flag has.

I hadn't realized it could have been a joke at first, though. Did it have to do with the honey badgers?

Yeah.....HoneyBadgers RUFC is the name of my 7's rugby team and when NS asked for a national animal it was the first to come into my head. I then dreamt up a story of a King admiring the animal otherwise it would just look weird.....either that or people would think it was a skunk.

Is the badger you're using on the flag the logo from your team? Or is it just a picture you found online? The only reason I ask is because I like how it's muscular, crossing its arms, and cocking its head.

Quite frankly, I really just picked colors I thought looked good together, but here goes nothing.
  • Black represents Tytor's Ardian heritage, while simultaneously symbolizing the struggle of the Tytorian people to unite their country.
  • Gold represents the people, along with the nation's wealth.
  • Green represents the land itself, particularly the vast forests the people take pride in.
  • The coat of arms represents the monarchy, and how it has kept the country together over the years.

Anyway, the coat of arms were borrowed from Serbia and then modified to fit Tytor. I also have variants for if/when Tytor is a republic, a socialist state or a fascist dictatorship.

So do the variants change colors, or do they change the logo so it doesn't look like a monarchy?

Also, I'm curious about what sort of heritage is associated with Ardia. Black, green, and gold (along with red) are often used by African nations, with a few other nations of African descent borrowing them as well.

The colors (as I already said) were pretty much picked at random. Tytor began as a colony of the Ardian Empire, a Roman Empire-analog that finally died after WWI. There are little or no African influences on Tytorian culture; most (if not all) of my ideas come from Europe and the United States.

Ya, I know you said they were mostly random, I just found it interesting.

I actually came up with a similar history, except it was a North Ardian empire named Calcoa. My nation was founded by slaves that rebelled and were aided by the monotheists that were religiously persecuted. They crossed the Krimeon Sea to flee being killed. I figured no Ardian nations would be offended that I presumed that an oppressive ancient civilization existed there since I can just say it was located somewhere nobody was located.

I really like how you do have different flags for different potential political situations, and I appreciate you sharing all of them.

  • The white represents the purity of the people of Achkaerin
  • The red is representative of the way in which the country is defended by it's royal family (red is on the Azurewind crest)
  • The orange aura is to represent the power of Achkaerin's Beast Deity's
  • The animal (ok it's the Pokemon Ninetales) symbolizes Achkaerin's great hero Djana Azurewind who united the country following a brutal civil war, later ascending to become the Beast Deity Vulpes (who is a nine tailed fox)

Originally, I was going to go with a different flag. I don't know how to make any of those images like flags or logos or anything so I was recruiting some help. It didn't pan out. My original idea was to go with a flag version of the Rhodes coat of arms.

Posted Image


Basically this. The Golden Bear is the Seaforth National animal, taken from the University of Alberta Golden Bears. The white bar with golden stars was to be moved to either side of the golden bear and the six starts would represent the six provinces of Seaforth. Blue for the ocean and white for the snowy mountains. Hopefully with a better bear image.

Anyway, like I said. It didn't pan out so I found my current flag on the web and thought it went with "Seaforth"

Like the brits call their flag the union jack, this one is known as "The Crimson Tide".

The crimson tide has grown on me and to reflect that, I have been slowly converting my nation to be much more "Maritime" in nature.

Rhodes, I've always been a big fan of square flags just because they're so uncommon. I find it interesting that the identity you ended up giving your nation was shaped by your flag instead of the other way around. I like it!

Techland, I'm a fan! I personally associate green with technology just because of motherboards and so on, but I like the flag.

Jonathan, is that Aslan? I like the checkered pattern.

This is the Elpidian flag. I made it by inverting and flipping the flag of Sealand, and adding the Bird-of-Paradise from the flag of Papua New Guinea.

In my canon, the Elpidian Bird-of-Paradise is the national animal, red represents the blood spilt to free Elpidia from previous tyrannical regimes, the white represents purity of ideas, and the grey represents humility (associated with our majority religion).

Dartfordia's flag is relatively recent, and was inspired by the historic Imperial Dartfordian flag.

Posted Image

The red represents the former communist north ('Littlebrook'), the white peace and the blue the rest of Dartfordia. It is supposed to symbolise the unification of all people, regardless of ideology.

Historic flags:
Flag of the Dartfordian Empire
Flag of Littlebrook
Flag of the Kingdom of Dartfordia (1924-1991) (flag still popular with many people, five stars are included as Stone was administered by the Littlebrook government and at the time was not regarded a constituent province in itself)

I think that if anybody's flag embodies a feel for a nation, yours does. Maybe because not only is it a Nordic Cross, but the white makes me think of a tundra or land of ice. But unlike Finland's blue, the black doesn't soften it, it makes it even harder or stark.

Since Italian Futurism is a major inspiration for the nation I've created, I felt it best to encapsulate this in the flag. I took the ordinary Italian flag and gave it a brighter and more vibrant feeling and added the sword to represent Futurist beliefs surrounding the use of violence.

I'd initially wanted to find a way to depict speed or motion but, as the original Futurists themselves found, it's difficult to depict speed in a static image without it just coming across as blurry.

I guess you could say I have a 2nd Nation in a way. I have a group of terrorists (they call themselves Seperatists) who have been claiming to be the true royal family for quiet some time. They are known as the Borlanders and prior to King Robert I uniting several provinces against his "evil" older brother and taking the throne, thus unifying a larger area into East Moreland, the Kingdom was known as Borland.

This is the flag of Borland

Yes, this is basically spain and mexico's flag combined but it represents Caelidia perfectly. Caeldia has spanish culture but is in no way very familiar to Mexico or Spain, especially in history, religion and military.

The eagle is freedom killing the snake of the former tyranical totalitarian state. Whilist standing on a cactus signifying Caelidia's toughness, determination and reisistance. Gold is the wealth and prosperity of the people. The red is the blood spilled in the revolution.

The eagle represents all Caelidian states rebelling, all the states today remain autonomous under the Confederation Treaty.

Here's the flag of the Federal Republic of Rokkenjima:

Posted Image

I suppose Rokkenjima was originally going to be a more English influenced nation, but as you can all see that didn't last long. So, with the fall of the Federal Republic, so too came the demise of this flag.

Posted Image

Thus comes the current Rokkenjiman Flag, a variant of the Rising Sun flag, also the naval ensign of the Japanese navy. No originality points, but it works well for Rokkenjima.

Quote:
 
The Flag of Rokkenjima has a red disc, symbolizing both the sun and Rokkenjima Isle, the disc being aligned closer to the left of the flag. This represents Rokkenjima as the Land of the Rising Sun while also symbolizing the location of Rokkenjima Isle, being closer to the prefectures of Austrana, Estvua and Kavania (which also became a part of the Rokkenjiman state before Ecskana and Arovium). The rays which extend from the disc symbolize the rays of the Rising Sun, as well as the links between Rokkenjima Isle, her Prefectures, and the seas around her.


Also (don't get any ideas, USR!) a Soviet Republic of Rokkenjima concept:

It may not be "original" in that it's a flag that already exists, but taking a naval ensign and turning it into your national flag certainly makes it unique to your nation as a nation flag. And I do think it works really well with the imperial system and ethos your nation has.
