The Vexillology Thread

So this thread popped up recently:

And it got me thinking, I really do like these fun flags that aren’t directly tied to (modern) nationality. Anyway thought we could share fun flags in this thread.

A couple Korean flags to start:

Joseon flag
The joseon flag. Echoes of this one in the modern South Korean flag, but it’s worlds different now.

Goryeo Dynasty
Goryeo Dynasty Flag: that bird is the Bong-gi (봉기/鳳旗) often translated to Pheonix, but not really the same thing. Still a magical bird-like creature.

Flag of the Worker's party of Korea
Flag of the Workers party of Korea. Everyone knows the hammer and sickle, but have you seen the hammer and sickle and brush??? :slight_smile:
