Mapping Intermission - Flags!

 I designed these flags a long time ago now, and it finally occurred to me I should post them here, and use one as my blog icon! Check them out:

Above, the civilian flag of Embla. This is the flag used by civilian individuals or organizations, and is the most commonly known flag outside of the country. It symbolizes a prominent constellation which rises in the West and is thus commonly visible throughout the country.

Above, the official flag of the government of Embla. This is used on all government property, and by the military. I'm thinking that there might be minor variations of this flag through history, as the government system goes through changes. It symbolizes the people and land united together in the nation. 

The flag above is the Civil Ensign. An ensign is just a flag flown on a boat, so this is the flag flown on civilian craft.


This is the Naval Ensign, the flag flown on naval vessels. 

And finally for a sort of fun, obscure one I created a "diplomatic" flag (UK & Thailand also have them) which is exclusively used in diplomatic settings like in Embassy's and on official state diplomatic visits (like those little flags on the front of official cars). Not a commonly seen flag.
