During the course of Eurasian history, the flag of Eurasia has evolved over hundreds of years. The current flag in usage today, the Eurasian Standard, has been the product of this evolution.

Terminology

Due to extensive British influence, the Eurasian Standard has often been called the Eurasian Jack. However, many point out the fact that a "jack" is a type of flag flown on naval vessels. The term "Eurasian Standard" is preferred by HM Government and vexollogists. The Eurasian Broadcasting Group also uses the term "Eurasian standard".

History

Since the United Kingdom of Eurasia is the unification of two different monarchies, the Eurasian flag is the fusion of the two original flags. The primary basis for the flag of the UK is the Flag of the Empire of Victoria. Victoria, being colonised inititally by Roman legions lost on a naval expedition, was ruled by Gaius Marcus Decidius, commander of the Roman forces, who selected the flag design. Unknown to many residents of Victoria, the black of the flag represented dedication to victory, and the white symbolised the horror that the enemies of Victoria would endure.

The Ganapatian city-states, once a subset of Victoria, declared their independence a few hundred years later. The red cross on this flag symbolises the blood of the Ganapatians spilt to gain their freedom, and the white represents the purity of the ideals they held.
