Flag of Albia

The national flag of Albia (Albian: Dzattenflaken auv Alpa) is a tricolour consisting of three equal vertical bands displaying the national colours of Albia: yellow, white, and green. The colours were taken from the coat of arms of the House of Ruw, and the vertical design may be based on the flags of Sarvania and Xenadeca. When flown, the yellow band is nearest the pole (at the hoist side).
The flag was designed in 1781, and replaced the previous flag which was the royal coat of arms on a white background. During the existence of the Albo-Corbarian Empire, in 1930 the flag was picked up by the Albian National Society and used to promote Albian nationalism and Albian independence. On May 2nd, 1979, with the collapse of the Albo-Corbarian Empire, the flag re-entered use as a national flag, and remains Albia's flag in modern times.
== Design and specifications ==
The official guide to protocol in Albia states that the national flag measures 3 meters tall for each 7 meters wide. Each of the stripes is one-third of the width of the flag. The yellow is in fact yellow and not gold as popularly thought by many. This misconception stems from the royal coat of arms, which use gold instead of yellow.

== Similar flags ==
The Flag of Jurndaze has a similar colour layout to the Albian one, but with the yellow on the hoist side as well as strikingly different shades of yellow and green. When Ażani Mintupo celebrated winning the 2016 world indoor 60-metre dash, she borrowed an Albian flag from a spectator and reversed it.
During the Albian Civil War, to prevent it's misidentification as an Albian government building, the Jurndazian embassy in Fienerta removed the flag of Jurndaze from public view.
