This flag is fictitious, proposed, or locally used unofficially. It has not been adopted in an official capacity, and although it may be named as if it was an official flag of a geographical or other entity and have some visual elements that are similar to official logos or flags of that entity, it does not have any official recognition. A flag of this type should not be added to any articles or pages unless it is officially proposed by a government agency, covered by the media, or sees notable local use. |
Summary
| Description |
English: A flag design alleged by the Daily Express to have been put forward as a proposal for a flag of the entire British Empire in 1902. It would have prominently featured the Cross of Saint George to represent the English. An imperial crown in the canton would represent a united empire. In the top right of the field would be the badge or arms of the territory in which the flag would be flown. For this file, the arms of Australia are used as an example. |
