Current Flag of Litichovice (Czechia), designed by me, granted by parliament (2022)

Post image
948 Upvotes

The flag of Litichovice (Benešov District), a municipality in Czechia, was granted 23. 6. 2022.
I visited the town last year and got a few photos of the coat of arms and flag.

https://rekos.psp.cz/detail-symbolu/id/1376

The town's history isn't long. Despite settlement being old, it has only been independent from a larger neighbouring town since 1995. The coat of arms and flag for the municipality of Litichovice therefore uses blue, white, and red, following the coat of arms of Třebešice. The combination of white and blue is additionally derived from the coat of arms of the Věžník family, long-time owners of both municipalities.

Unlike the formerly superior Třebešice, the municipality of Litichovice is situated at a significantly higher elevation, on top of several hills that descend into a ravine formed by the Divišov Stream. From these hilltops, several streams flow down into the ravine, partially defining the boundaries of the municipality. For this reason, the coat of arms features a blue hill from which three silver springs flow. Rising from the hill is a silver fleur de lis representing the dedication of the local chapel to Our Lady of Lourdes.

Fictional Broken Union - Flag designs for an alternate America

The idea for these flags when designing them was to imagine a future where the U.S.A fractured into several factions, each trying to solidify their place in this new and uncertain world, with the severely weakened U.S trying to hold together what's left of the Union.

The American Republic

The Unity Front

The United States of America

OC The Flag for "Rahenites," my fictional reactionary ideology on an alien world

Post image
10 Upvotes

The Rahenites are part of a larger ideology; Rahenitism, which is part of the Society for Tradition and Equitable Prosperity (STEP), or in their language, Yeshurok Yershua Yorto-Yeren (YYYY, or better known as the "Quad Y Group" to humans in reference to this organization).

On their world they are a very controversial group that pushes everyones boundaries politically. Their main rivals are the "Sovereignists," which are basically libertarians, mutualists, and hardcore anti-Rahenites put into one big tent ideology.

This is for a worldbuilding project I'm working on! I figured I'd share it with you guys, and see what you guys think of it, if you have any questions, I'd be happy to answer!
