Friendly reminder that Sweden actually has two flags.
A lighter flag (left) used by the left to talk about Sweden being a humanitarian superpower, socialism built this country, etc. It comes from a misinterpretation of the 1906 flag code.
And a darker flag (right). This is the real flag, symbolizing the Swedish nation and people.
Do not get them mixed up!
The dark blue is way sexier. Looks like our war flag
So does the US.
Right looks like ikea
#006AA7
#FECC00
Those are our color codes. Nothing else.
It is.
OP is retarded.
You're wearing a lighter one now
Dark Blue is indeed sexier.
Also the yellow is originally supposed to be gold, never straight yellow
The real Swedistani flag:
The one on the right certainly looks better. Can you give me more details about how it's a misinterpretation? The English wikipedia article only says that the 1906 flag code 'further regulated the use and design of the flag, notably was a lighter blue colour than was used before'.
This is a meme but even if it wasn't it looks atrocious.
No you are retarded lmao
It only started being light due to a misinterpretation. And it has been "light" only since 1902, beyond that it was darker blue
That’s better, I was about to be offended at the lack of diversity.
*1906
That top left "mixed flag" was called 'the herring salad' in Norway.
I understand why. Those colors don't match up very well.
Idiot. The left flag already represents Swedistan, there is no need to put any Muslim symbols on it because it already is one unto itself.
Danes are allowed to have the war flag on civilian boats. Always makes me think we're being invaded when I'm in Helsingborg.
Yeah it honestly look bad on its own, but okay when in the top left corner
Of course an Italian would feel better with a bunch of Muslim symbols and culture everywhere
Friendly reminder that this is the real flag of Denmark.
thank you for this swede poster
Dumping some swedish history
This is bull shit
>Update
It's a modern interpretation of old descriptions of the flag of the Norwegian king.
Proof or die faggot
>old descriptions of the flag of the Norwegian king.
>Norwegian king.
Shh, it's Ragnar Lodbrok's flag.
GIB FLAG NOW
>jävla muslimer
Why did that make me laugh
gib back flag motherfucker i dont care if it looks worse than our current one
>jordan maxwell bullshit
>in 2018
Before 1906, it had an even darker blue, like . Then it was changed to the one in the OP (right).
Now, what people do digitally, is that they try to represent how the flag looks like when flown against a light background (e.g. the sky). This is why it looks so pathetic, because it has the color of the sky mixed in. They believe this is correct because it specified a "lighter blue", without understanding what it was in reference to.
The cuck left goes along with it because it's a nice excuse for co-opting the "problematic" flag. There was also a suggestion to change the blue on the police uniforms to make them less authoritarian, same reasoning.
Coincidence?
The Swedish flag is really a remake of the family flag ot the "natt och dag" nobility (Night and Day family"
All I see is more Blacked flag.
You realize that there is a cross on the flag, right? Originally the flag was a crusader banner and was flown vertically. I doubt Mohammed would like to use a literal crusade flag
Yes, let's make sweden darker, great idea
Rake yourself
This is about aesthetics on a flag dumbass. Light blue is too much like the Ukraine anyway
The colors on the flag are from the coat of arms of the West Gothian "People's Kings." Hence royal blue is the correct color
I'm half black and want all niggers/mudslimes out of skandinavia? How can I help without killing myself?
How niggerly do you look? Say you're Italian or something
Reminder that also Finland has two flags
Fuck burger
Retake Karjala when?
Friendly reminder the codes for flags derive from the codes used in western Europe for coat of arms, and in no way such a difference is relevant. Both are described the same, any shade of blue and gold will do and remain valid.
Also friendly reminder that removing his dick to your lion on your coat of arms is the most shameful thing possible.
source for swedish flag ever being a crusader banner?
Move to africa.
>Any shade of blue and gold will do and remain valid.
Untrue
Some old Legend of a Swedish King during the Crusade into Finland that saw the Golden Cross on the Blue Sky
By promoting far right views in the public room and remind them that you are black everytime they try to call you racist
So I'l move to africa and dont go on a muslim killing spree. Ok bye, gl with the rape.
Look up heraldic tincture. Almost all national flags follow heraldic rules.
Behold, the first American flag!
After we retake Europe, we are going to retake Africa from the Chinese. We will creat a mulatto race to lord over the place, you will be among them.
Help us by spreading propaganda and in the future join our organisation.
Guerra de carreras cuando jajajajajaja
RACE WAR not RACE WAR
Du tänker på Dannebrogen
okay, this is epic
I'd go to war to prevent us using that shitty flag.
Our current flag is literally GOAT and OC (all the other nordcucks copied it because the design is so good.)
I just know realised that Ikea got its colours from the Swedish flag
I might be retarded
De första bilderna av en blå duk med gult kors som en svensk flagga är ett landskapsvapen för södra Finland från 1550-talet och ett för Gotland i Gustav Vasas liktåg från 1560. Två blågula flaggor finns fortfarande i Egentliga Finlands landskapsvapen, från tiden då Johan III var hertig i Åbo 1556-1569.

>OC
It's just an off-center battle flag of the HRE
>an off-center battle flag of the HRE
And that's what makes all the difference. Just look at the Swiss meme-flag. That center cross looks stupid as hell, almost as if LEGO designed their flag.
And btw your flag looks like puke; that color combo is awful. When will you go back to pic related?

>A civil flag is a version of the national flag that is flown by civilians on nongovernmental installations or craft.
Stämmer det
ROFL
All hail the Phoenix
Mythology
ccording to early modern legend,[citation needed][year needed] the 12th-century King Eric IX saw a golden cross in the sky as he landed in Finland during the First Swedish Crusade in 1157. Seeing this as a sign from God he adopted the golden cross against a blue background as his banner.
It has been suggested[according to whom?] that the Swedish origin legend is chosen to counter a parallel origin story for the Danish flag, also recorded in the 16th century. According to this theory,[citation needed] the Swedish flag was created during the reign of King Charles VIII, who also introduced the coat of arms of Sweden in 1442. The national coat of arms is a combination of King Albert's coat of arms of 1364 and King Magnus III's coat of arms of 1275, and is blue divided quarterly by a golden cross pattée.
Other historians[who?] claim that the Swedish flag was blue with a white cross before 1420, and became blue with a golden cross only during the early reign King Gustav I, who deposed King Christian II in 1521.
Early history
The exact age of the Swedish flag is not known, but the oldest recorded pictures of a blue cloth with a yellow cross date from the early 16th century, during the reign of King Gustav I.[citation needed] The first legal description of the flag was made in a royal warrant of 19 April 1562 as "yellow in a cross fashioned on blue".[8] As stipulated in a royal warrant of 1569, the yellow cross was always to be borne on Swedish battle standards and banners. Prior to this, a similar flag appeared in the coat of arms of King John III's duchy, which is today Southwest Finland. The same coat of arms is still used by the province.
time to break this one out swedecucks
>Just look at the Swiss meme-flag. That center cross looks stupid as hell
The Swiss flag looks silly because the cross doesn't touch the borders, pic related is the battle flag.
>And btw your flag looks like puke; that color combo is awful.
I actually disagree with that, the mistake is to make it a tricolor see my next post.
>When will you go back to pic related?
Soon...
Here BRG looks pretty good.
Behold the perfekt tricolor
These are alright, but you def need a new flag.
>Soon...
Hopefully. Don't get me wrong, Hans - I think you guys are alright.
stockholms blodbad 1520 never forget
That's not a tricolor at all. Tricolor refers to to a triband with three different colors. The thing about tricolors is they need to contains white or they'll look like shit.
Flag is a symbol. Symbols are made of ideas. Other than that they're nothing but pieces of cloth.
Your flag no matter the color symbolizes mass-suicide on scale unseen in human history. When people see it they think of Islamic immigration and submission to the "new swedes".
Your flag is a fucking joke because your country is a fucking joke.
And this is coming from a Finn. We aren't that far behind in ethnically cleansing ourselves off this earth.
Same here, Sillsalladen
On the colours, the Swedish blue is the same blue the Norwegians have on their cross, i.e. hellalot darker than the cuck-blue
No, the left one symbolizes what you're talking about. There's not one branch of the Swedish government which uses the right one. Even the police lightened up the uniforms to seem "less authoritarian".
Do not get them mixed up!
cucks
Pic related is the real Belgian flag as defined in the constitution to this day.
No no
You got it all wrong
Here's the proper flag
Doesn't matter if you claimed it was the old tre kronor flag of the Swedish empire. Flag is only a symbol and people as a collective give meaning to symbols.
