Flags: see list on the right. IJzerland has one
official flag that is normally displayed whenever the
country is represented in one way or another. There is also
a Royal Standard, but that hasn't been used since the royal
family became extinct in 7811. It is however the prerogative
of the acting head of state (see below) to have the Standard
borne in his or her presence; few of them choose to do so
however. Each of the three regions has a flag, but among the
normal provinces it is not a custom to bear, let alone to
have flags; three of the autonomous provinces have flags.
Following the war of 7913, during which the then independent
duchy of Sambekistan was annexed to become the autonomous
province of Kagqizeinshaims, the Sambekes were forbidden to
have a flag representing them.
