What will Ireland's flag be, post-unification? Will they keep the Tricolour or will they invent a new flag?
>>61600448
Ireland won't be a unitary state but a confederation, like Switzerland or Belgium. The united flag won't be our tricolor but perhaps something like this
>>61600579
Why like this? What are the colours standing for?
>>61600448
Well the flag is intended to represent peace between the nationalists and loyalists (green (nationalist), White (peace) and orange (loyalist).
flag related.
>>61600955
Yeah, but surely the years of sectarian strife put paid to that idea? Not sure there are many loyalists that'd be happy living under the tricolour.
It will be this.
>>61601050
Sadly ideals rarely play out in reality as they do on paper, everyone wants something different, everyone pulls a different direction. And given how the catholic church influenced the governance of our country since independence the loyalist concerns on that front were well founded.
>>61601197
That's pure shite
>>61600678
Unionist
Peace
Nationalist
>>61601050
This. The tricolor should be the flag of NI instead of us

Whats wrong with the harp on the green?
>>61602822
It's the flag of Leinster (Dublin) so bogscum would be offended
>>61601197

>>61602972
Great idea, not great execution
You know, you only need to post the porn once with a request for banning. Pls stop ruining threads.
>>61602553

>>61600448
A united Ireland under this
>>61603387
The UJ is probably the best flag in the world but we'd like something different
>>61600579
Slap a Doug fir on there and we're good to go.
Find one that looks less shitstain-y though.
How about this?
>>61603387
>There are civilians who unironically fly this flag.
I'll never understand.
There's no question of it being anything other than this
>>61603891
Isn't Patricks Cross red?
Why did you chose white?
>>61603966
Rule of cool f@m
>>61604199
Here's your cool; make your flag, then smear the blood of your enemies along the cross. :)

King cuck.

Tiocfaidh allah!
Alright lads look, I got it!
The perfect flag!
So someone already came up with this one online. Not sure about the hexagon, but I like the general idea.
>>61604967
>A FUCKING SHAMROCK
If this were the flag would people be butthurt?
>>61605122
>shamrock

>>61605174
I think people would flip if they took out the green.
>>61603485
Union flag. A jack is a flag on a ship.

>an american lecturing me about my culture
no thanks
>>61605252
It is a jack. Civilians have taken to adopting it to civilian use but it is a naval jack
>>61603606
Was going to post this myself. Its a nice idea, it serves as our presidential standard now. I personally like the gold on blue.
>>61605174
>>61605105
Not a fan of red or crosses at all.
>>61604732
>Irish president's flag
Blue was the original colour of Ireland, and that particular flag with the harp was introduced by Henry VIII I believe.

either is fine in general since no one cares

Beats the current NI flag
>a crown, pagan hand symbol, judenstern, and cross
which fucking religion even are you?
>>61605353
The standard dates from the norman invasion, and its recorded in a 1200's catalogue of standards as belonging to the le Roi d'Irlande.
>>61602751
>imagining someone saying "desu" with that accent
>>61605296
As a national flag it ceased to be a jack. Perfectly acceptable to call it a jack if you're discussing naval use ofc.
>>61605444
Agreed. It is an abomination.
>>61604618
The blue comes from the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, golden harp on blue is Royal.
We could use a silver harp on blue or green background.
When's Ireland gonna have a High King again, lads?

>EU flag
fucking why mate
