The Flag of Sancratosia (Lingua Franca Nova: Bandera de Sancratosia) is the national flag of the Principality of Sancratosia. It is quartered of red and white, in the same pattern found on the coat of arms of the Principality.
Overview
The conception of the flags of Sancratosia was influenced by the design of the flags of Monaco. The flags follow the same general conception as their Monegasque counterparts and have similar uses in the Principality.
This was done as an hommage to its achievement and success as a microstate.
