List of Solomorssian Flags

This is a list of flags associated with the Solomorssian Isles, as well as other flags used within Solomorssian Isles, such as the flags of governmental and military agencies. There are also separate flags for embassies and ships.

## Protocol Guidelines

The Department of Solomorssian Heritage (that works under the Ministry of Welfare) lays out protocol guidelines for the display of flags, including an order of precedence; these instructions are only conventional, however, and are generally intended to show respect for what are considered important symbols of the state or institutions. The civil ensign standard is supreme in the order of precedence, followed by the other enisgns, and then the medallion flags.

Many museums across Solomorssian Isles display historic flags in their exhibits. The *Solomorssic Museum of History*, in Providence, Yankton, has many culturally important flags in their collections. *Interstellar, Halifaxion Inc.*, in Louisbourg, Touraine-Soissones, holds the 2nd largest exhibit—known as the *Solomorssic Flag Collection*.

## National Flags

* Used for UN and other alliance-related meetings.
* Used for all other national purposes (flag hoisting and national ceremonies, etc.)

### National Civil Flag

The national flag of Solomorssian Isles, known as the ***Solomorssian Medallion Jack***, is a horizontal 2:3-ratio tricolor flag of violet, gold, and orange with a black truncated chevron at the hoist. The chevron features the *Flag of Arms*, which is made from a Huguenot Cross, surrounded by a Laurel Wreath, with a Star of David at the top, and a Golden Simplified Tudor Rose at the bottom of the wreath. The golden stripe of the tricolor features a displaced green Maltese Cross within it, as well.

Many different flags created for use by Solomorssian officials, government bodies, and military forces contain the Flag of Arms in some fashion, either by having the Solomorssian flag charged in the canton or by including the Flag of Arms in the design. The Solomorssian flag also appears on the government's wordmark.

#### Origins & Designs

The flag is horizontally symmetric (if removing the Flag of Arms), and therefore caussing the obverse and reverse sides to appear unidentical. The Maltese Cross is made from 4 isosceles triangles where the angles at the base have a certain magnitude that the 4 triangles don't touch each other. The tricolor of violet, gold, and orange is a *Solomorssian Medallion* (all 3 bands have equal width and height); it becomes a "*Jack*". In heraldic terminology, the flag's blazon as outlined on the original royal proclamation is "3 bars of purpure, or, and vert with a Maltese Cross superimposed behind a black truncated chevron of the Flag of Arms".

#### Promotion

Since the adoption of the Solomorssian flag in 2001, the Solomorssian government has sponsored programs to promote it. Examples include the Solomorssian Parliamentary Flag Program of the Department of Solomorssian Heritage and the flag program run by the Department of Public Construction. These programs increased the exposure of the flag and the concept that it was part of the national identity. To increase awareness of the new flag, the Parliamentary Flag Program was set up in December 1972, by the Cabinet and, beginning in 1973, allowed members of the House of Commons to distribute flags and lapel pins in the shape of the Solomorssian flag to their constituents. Full-size flags that have been flown on Justice Tower and four other locations on Parliament Hill are packaged by the Department of Public Works and offered to the public free of charge.
