The weird chicken snake thing is most likely a basilisk. Most popular media shows them as a snake but they where also sometimes thought to be a monstrous chicken
Municipal flags yeah we don't make actual official Municipal flags much as far as I'm concerned only the autonomous region named BARM or Bangsamoro Autonomous Region of Mindanao has an actual flag. But national flag we really really REALLY love our national flag and you can see it pretty much everywhere and have laws protecting the flag's image. Seriously it's illegal to use our national flag as a design on something as simple as a T-shirt and you're not allowed on putting anything else on the flag
@@Gencrossbonesgood point, but what i meant by flag culture is for places to have a sudden need for a flag to identify themselves. Sure, there probably is one for cities and municipalities but its not at the center of their identities like, say, Americans or Europeans
@@Robinsekto well yeah if you put it like that despite the fact that we have about 182 different ethnic groups we all prioritize the PH flag and we don't really make our own flags based on our cultures (you won't see a flag of Bikolanos anywhere here despite their own distinct culture compared to the majority Tagalog). The only flag that can signify something like that is the BARMM Flag but the BARMM despite being an autonomous region still fly the PH national flag more often than their flag sometimes they only fly the national flag you can still see their flag flying their flag side by side with the national flag though.
I learned the origin of the Union Jack, not from school but from autonomous readings. The flags from the British colonial era where based upon the British commercial fleet ships flags. They where designed and attributed by the commercial navy officials. The creature on the Kazan's flag is a cokatrice. It's a chimera of a chicken and a snake, optionally with bat wings. This one also have the head of a beast.
I was taught that the flag originally comes from Genoa, and that Britain paid to use said flag on their fleet ships not to get attacked, which would also explain Milan and Bologna since they were affected by trading with Genoa a lot
I also made a quick Google search since I got intrigued "It is known that English Crusaders used a red flag with a white cross about 1189." Genoa has a "lantern" (Lighthouse, but locals call it lantern) with that symbol which was built back in 1128, so it would be older? Not by a lot though, so I understand
The first one shoes the flag of bologna, mila, england and genoa and the football (soccer) logo of Bologna and AC Milan both also look very similar and both include their flag.
municipalities/cities and provinces in the Philippines don't have flags, i think officially, only have city seals, but sometimes they use flags which consists of the city seal in the centre, with single solid color as background (white is most common)
Perhaps the worst part of that Lake Sebu banner is that the small diamond shaped patteron on the black squares would make a pretty good flack all on it’s own.
Now you can come at me with that Google and/or Drew are in USA. But that's just living in a bubble. Searching for something generic without specifying USA really should default to the world regardless of where you are from.
Hmm... 6:02 "You can put a different color, just make it a solid flat color." A solid flat color. With the seal. Drew, having mocked the flags of older US states. * Intense Northeastern US noises *
During the first crusade the flag of genoa (and of milan and bologna) was born, but when genoa was the most powerful maritime republic, it became the pass to sail the mediterranean free from pirate attacks. For this reason the British decided to pay a duty to Genoa to be able to trade with their ships in the Mediterranean, at that time they had a red flag with three yellow lions, in the deal they had also bought the relics of St. George and the dragon from Genoa , in all probability it was the body of some Turk killed in the crusades embalmed together with a crocodile to play the part of the dragon. After the fall of genoa under Napoleon the british stopped paying us the duty but they continued to use the flag which by now was recognized as the national british flag... Technically we Genoese have about 5 centuries of renting the flag :)
Fun fact: Thr Crimean war is considered as the first modern war in history, as for the logistical, strategic and tactical developments that were made during the war, with a slow but steady importance of proffesional healthcare in the militaries involved in the conflict. Not only that, but this was the first true war where communication could be relaid from a telegraph, and rifled muskets (on the allied side only) being used which had effective ranges of up-to 550 metres (or around 600 yards) Fun fact: This was actually the first proper conflict where the Russian empire was defeated through an invasion
I have one Question: If A red Cross, a diagonal red Cross and a diagonal Blue Cross, what makes the White Line around the Horizontal Cross, and Why turns the Blue X into a Blue Background? (I went to School, but I am German)
1. Its not a blue X. its a white X on blue background. 2. The white around the cross is called fimbriation. Google it and youll get a detailed explanation.
