That is a really cool flag...

Yeah, now I just have to write a plausible timeline on how it was created. Such as why is there the diagonal stripe? The colors are the same, except the baby blue one, which got inadvertently added.

This is what we are considering for the local militia outfit...

Warning: the following is not a flag! It is a coat-of-arms.

And a frankenstien at that too...

Flag of Scotland-Cornwall:
(What would be an adequate "summary" name for this state? Surely not Great Britain.)

Nicole · Mar 21, 2006

Neat flag, though I have no idea how a UK of only Scotland and Cornwall would appear, even ignoring the issue of naming it.

Flag of the United Kingdom of Ireland.

I like your design overall. However, I think that it would look nicer if you changed the font and added a white outline to the black cross:

The flag of Cornwall is a white cross on a black field (cross of St Piran), not a saltire (X-shaped cross).

A name for such a state might just be Alba-Kernow.

Scotland-Cornwall would be this (ignoring the fact that you would have black on blue) :

The saltire would look better "on top" I'd think.

You're probably right - and anyway, why would Cornwall be the dominant power in this union?

I based it too much on the Union Jack.

maybe Cornwall is bigger like everything south of Oxford in an alternate timeline. Or Cornwall is just dominant despite differences in size and/or population?

Here's something I made for another thread. It's a roundel that's supposed to represent the Western Allies of WW2 (Britain + France + USA). I coloured the background green just to emphasise that the white bits are white and not transparent:

So what looks better? Wales on Cornwall...

Or Cornwall on Wales?

That was actually one of the flags used in OTL by the Nazis' stooge party in Denmark. (The other was white swastika on red Japan-like disk on white background, IIRC).
