The Flag Of Cocklpot

To date, The Grand High Kingdom Of Cocklpot has had two official flags.

The first of these flags, now known as 'The Secession Flag', was created during the secession of Cocklpot from Australia and remained the official flag of the kingdom for a period of 16 months and 24 days, from the 21st of May in the year 2021 until the 14th of October in the year 2022, before being replaced by the current flag of the kingdom. 'The Secession Flag' had a very simple design and had the great seal of Cocklpot as its main feature.

The current flag of Cocklpot, officially called 'The Flag Of Absolute Sovereignty' as an allusion to over a year of self-governance since the secession, features a much more intricate design which contains a number of symbols that are significant to the kingdom, such as the pied butcherbird (the national bird of Cocklpot) and a crown representing the monarchy. 'The Flag Of Absolute Sovereignty' was designed and created by one of the most impactful artists in the kingdom at the time, working closely with King James, before gaining the assent of the King to be used and instated as the official flag of the kingdom on the 14th of October in the year 2022.

The Great Seal Of Cocklpot

To date, The Grand High Kingdom Of Cocklpot has had two official seals.

'The Great Seal Of Cocklpot' is not any one seal, it is the title held by the seal used at the time as the official crest of the kingdom. Each respective seal has its own name which is used when the seal is not the current official seal of Cocklpot.

The first seal to hold the distinction of 'The Great Seal Of Cocklpot' is the seal that was created during the secession of Cocklpot from Australia, known as 'The Secession Seal', which remained the official seal of the kingdom since the 21st of May in the year 2021 until the 22nd of December in the year 2022. The seal featured heavily on the first flag of Cocklpot ('The Secession Flag') and has a very distinct design.

The current seal to hold the distinction of 'The Great Seal Of Cocklpot' is the 'The Seal Of Absolute Sovereignty' which gained its name as an allusion to over a year of self-governance since the secession. It features a much more impactful design which contains a number of symbols that are significant to the kingdom, such as the pied butcherbird (the national bird of Cocklpot) and a crown representing the monarchy. 'The Seal Of Absolute Sovereignty' was designed and created by one of the most impactful artists in the kingdom at the time, working closely with King James, before gaining the assent of the King to be used and instated as the offical'Great Seal Of Cocklpot' on the 22nd of December in the year 2022.
