Must agree with Firelord, there are far to many modernist anachronisms here the crosses of Saint George and Saint Andrew are post medieval, and ought to be Gules three Leopards of England Or (pre Edward III, post E III is naturally with the addition of the arms of France qurated 1 & 4) & and Or a Lion Rampant Gules within a double treasure flory counter flory of the second, respectively.

The second flag on the top left is, if im not mistaken, Turkish flag, yet in medieval times there was Ottoman Empire, which had a different flag; a green banner with 3 crescents

Raubritter In reply to doc-radiant [2013-02-21 09:53:42 +0000 UTC]

They had many flags, as there was nothing like a "national" flag; red and green, one crescent, or three, the military flags showed the sword of Jakob (I think, I mean this double bladed item) etc

I don't think the Vatican, Russia, and third banner from the left in the last row were used in medieval times. Also, the lilies in France's banner should be 2:1 instead of 1:2 and I have never seen that Mameluck ensign outside of EU3. Top row second from the right also is weird.

Third banner from the left in the last row is the *alleged* flag of the Kalmar Union. Some claim it was used, though I personally disagree. Top row second from the right is the Hussite symbol used in Paradox games. While the chalice was (and is) a widely used symbol in Hussite theology, I sincerely doubt they had a flag quite like that.

Damn Paradox and their misleading, incorrect and anachronistic use of flags and symbols sometimes...XD
