Austro-Hungarified EU.

I love it but wheer is the now leaving UK?
So a pair of flags I've made for timelines....
The flag of the Republic of Sonora in the collaborative timeline His Truth is Marching On - 1865 America ISOT'd to 1776. Long story short the Republic is an attempted filibuster by a dozen ex-Confederate POWs, and it still remains to be seen if they pull it off.
And this is the flag of the Enclave Defense Contractors in my own pre-war Fallout timeline. Long story short the Enclave didn't take being purged from the government in 2049 lying down.
And credit where credit is do, I stole the eagle and stars from a flag by VenusUberAlles.

The next part in my TL is coming along very soon, and will feature the end of TTL's War of the Spanish Succession. As one last teaser as I work on it, I present the flag of New Modena, the English Penal Colony south of Carolina that has become a neo-feudal state of exiled aristocrats, which rises up in rebellion after an ambitious young officer decides to whip the lazy guards into shape and crack down on colonial corruption, which begins right before England joins the war and continues into it.
Alas, ink-spilled on the document, preventing knowledge of anything that will be revealed in the next part!

Cross post from the challenge. Not entirely happy with it.
Province of Autumne
Despite its similarity to the season, the name derives from the Alletomes tribe who also leant their name to the city of Authyme. The early Counts of Autumne/Authyme were prominent in extending Francian rule over the Norman and West Saxon Counts, eventually being elevated to Marquis.
The flag of the province derives from the arms borne by the Auranchin dynasty - a barry of white and red with green roundels, the red mutated to orange in the 17th century as the name of the port of Auranche (now Orange St Simon) became confused with that of the fruit (and colour).

Orange Sunset Ensign/Jack. Introduced in 1973
Due to lot of nautical accidents caused by tourists with too much enthusiasm for boats, the Miami Coast Guard officially designated a mandatory ensign/jack for tourist vessels. It was designed to be easy to see by the locals. While not popular anywhere outside of Miami ,let alone the State of Florida,for a while; its popularity suddenly skyrocketted after the pop-rock hit album "Summer in Miami" in 1981 acheived nr.1 in sales. The cover of the album featured the ensign, and sparked its popularity. Since then it became synonymous with summer, and can be seen flown on most recreational boats and beach parties, on clothing and accessories, and even as tattoos. Because of it being overly successfull, the Miami Coast Guard was forced to designate another ensign for tourists, this time being a simple orange field charged with a white anchor.
I almost tried the challenge but decided that it was not for me. Great flags though!
Scarily close to my first idea for the March of Autumn!
Nice.
Finally, no British people to invade. Also love the flag.
A jewish homeland state in Russia, I have legitematley never heard that idea before. Great twist on an already existing trope, though the flag is a bit bland.
Which is a huge bust, to be honest. The appeal of founding a country of Jews over living in barren, icy wasteland in a country with an ugly history of pogroms isn't even close to being contested.
