The flags of all the three 5caud.
uavian kingdoms are somewhat sim.
liar in design. OF the Danish flag the
legend runs that King Waldemar Of
Denmark, leading his troops to battle
in 1919, saw at a critical moment a
cross in the sky. This was at once
taken as an answer to his prayers and
an assurance OF celestial aid II was
forthwith adopted as the Danish aa9
and called the "Danebrog," that In
the strength of Denmark Apart from
all legend this flag undoubtedly dates
from the thirteenth century, and is
therefore the Oldest now in existence.
1t consists of a white cross on a red
ground, the naval flag being swallow
tailed and the mercantile marine flag
rectangular. The Swedish flag is q
yellow cross on a blue ground. When
flown from a man-of-war it is forkea
as in the Danish, but the longer arm
of the cross is not cut OF but pointed.
making a three-pointed flag For the
mercantile marine the flag is rectan-
gular.
