Flags

Pavlov's flag is a horizontal bicolor of blue and white, symbolizing the eternal blue sky above and the virgin Pavlovian lands down. During 2014-2017 the design was claimed to come from the 14th century, with Pavlovian folkore telling that the flag was first seen in history during the Battle of the Kulikovo as it was carried by one of the bannermen of Prince Dmitry Ioannovich Donskoj of Moscow.

A Pavlovian flag is flown on two plots of Pavlovian territories, namely in Nov Asenovgrad (Slovakia) and in Aleksandropol (Netherlands). The Flag in Nov Asenovgrad has been removed by an unknown third party in 2015, but it was placed on the soil again in 2020. In the past an attempt was made to place a Pavlovian flag in the Hagia Irene church in Istanbul, but the flag was removed within minutes.

The Imperial Standard of Pavlov is heavily based on that of the Eastern Roman Empire. It contains a red field with a golden St. George cross (the claimed Labarum of Emperor Constantine the Great) and four times the Latin letter "C" transliteration to the Cyrillic "Ц" standing for the Pavlovian Imperial motto "Царь Царів Царствующий над Царями" (King of Kings, reigning over those who rule).
