Flag of Edropia

The Flag of Edropia, officially called Double Cross Flag, dates back to the Neopagan movement in the 18th century. It features a light blue-edged blue cross on a green background, which represents Pretarism. The colors represent nature with the light blue and sea-blue representing rivers, lakes and oceans while the green represents plant life and land.

The Flag of the federal government, or Double Cross Flag of the Federal Government was introduced in 1927 and is a variant of the Double Cross Flag with a modified version of the coat of arms in the center of the cross. The government flag may only be used by the federal government authorities and its use by others is an offense, punishable with a fine.

The Double Cross Flag of the Defense Forces is a swallow-tailed version of the government flag and is used as the Edropian war flag and naval ensign. It's exclusively used by the Edropian military and, similar to the government flag, its use by others is an offense, punishable with a fine.

Origins
The exact origins of the Double Cross Flag remain unknown to this day but its symbolism has never been a mustery. The first evidence of its existence date back to the Neopagan movement in the 1720s and it first represented the idea of a better Edropia that loves nature as it used to. It was widely used by protesters and eventually represented democracy and pacifism as well, becoming the symbol of revolution and change, together with the aspiration of a unified Edropia.

The flag was again famously used by revolutionaries during the Edropian Revolution (1923 - 1924) and became the official flag of the Federal Republic of Edropia with its establishment on March 1st 1924. The variants followed a few years later to better distinguish between government authorities and civilian flag usage.

History
The Double Cross Flag wasn't declared the official flag until 1924, before that the Edropian Empire used the so called Phoenix Flag (WIP)
