Meaning of Flag Explained:
The flag of Flandrensis features a horizontal tricolour of blue, yellow and black. The flag’s design consists of three horizontal stripes, with the blue stripe at the top being twice as wide as the yellow and black stripes, which are equal in size. The flag includes five white stars on the blue stripe. The blue represents the sky and the sea surrounding the Flandrensian Islands. The two large stars stand for Siple and Carney Island. The three small stars stand for Cherry, Maher and Pranke Islands and their arrangement reflects the islands’ positions. White symbolizes the ice, while yellow and black reference the national coat of arms, honouring the origins and history of the micronation.

It serves as a symbol of pride and ecological commitment, representing the dedication of Flandrensian citizens worldwide.
The National Coat of Arms of the Grand Duchy of Flandrensis
Adopted: 4 September 2008
Meaning of CoA Explained: The Coat of Arms of Flandrensis depicts a shield with two passant lions, surrounded by the chain of the Order of the Melting Mountain. Below the shield is a ribbon with Flandrensis' national motto "No Humans, Only Nature" written on it and above the shield sits the crown of Flandrensis.
The Flandrensisian lions are inspired on the Flemish lion, the coat of arms of the counts of Flanders. It traditionally symbolises bravery, valour, strength, and royalty, since traditionally, it is regarded as the king of beasts. According to some historians the first Flemish lion was passant gardant (walking) and not rampant (standing), therefore the founder used two lions passant gardant, the second lion symbolises again the resurrection of the medieval Flandrensis.
