My own flag design of a bigger Philippines

The 6 new stars represent the 6 new island groups, islands, and areas, which are Sabah, Minahasa (North Sulawesi and Gorontalo), North Maluku, Palau, the Spratly Islands, and Xiamen-Fuzhou & Zhangzhou & Shantou-Jieyang (Xiamen-Fuzhou & Zhangzhou & Shantou-Jieyang is one territory, not 3 territories), the red bauhinia flower represents Hong Kong, one of the new territories, and the blue star represents Taiwan, another one of the new territories, representing 8 new territories. I made the golden sun a bit smaller to fit in the new stars, and I decided to make the blue star more blue.

gold=sunrise

blue= rivers or the blue ridge mountains

green=forest

grey=mountains in first flag, in second flag it’s fog

triangles (only in second flag)=the six significant mountains in my area

sorry if this is a badly constructed post it’s one of my first on Reddit.

Requesting feedback for flag design of my fictional country

This is the Federal Republic of Tajrstan, a small-but-not-small nation in the north of the Oriental Robloxian Far East.

After the revolutions that broke up the Transbloxian Soviet Socialist Republics (TBSSR) in 2001, this post-Soviet state designed this flag for the nation. Even with the hammer and sickle on the flag, Tajrstan is not communist, nor is it socialist. It is a Federal Presidential Constitutional Republic.

Though I need feedback here. Is it good enough? Do I need to change anything?

Flag hanging outside firehouse

This was hanging outside of a firehouse. Flanking it on either side, separately were black and white striped American Flags, one with a blue line and one with a red line. I’m not asking about those please don’t comment on those. This was hanging in between them and I’m wondering if there is any meaning to this, considering the symmetry of the other flags. Thanks in advance and thanks to those who pointed out my prior post’s missing picture.

Edit: Solved. Thank you redditors. It's a flag hung in memorium for a squad member lost.

Flag of the Muscovy Company, or Russia under Britain

I restored the Muscovy Company coat of arms and also decided to make a flag with it, and it even turned out that it can be considered as the flag of Russia under Britain. Do you think that if Britain had actually taken control of Russia, they would have used this coat of arms as a colonial one?

Hand-made pattern by me on the flags of colonial Morocco (1912 - 1956)

During the European colonial era, France and Spain had long been in agreement, and in 1912 they divided Morocco, which became a protectorate of their respective nations.

FRENCH ZONE:

The flag in the French zone was adopted on November 17, 1915, placing a green pentacle on the red flags of the Alawite Sultanate, replacing the six-pointed Seal of Solomon. This symbol is very common in Islamic culture and vexillology, seen as a sacred symbol. However, this symbol would appear, unofficially or unofficially, on Moroccan flags for a long time, the result of errors in construction or poor craftsmanship. It was used as the national and civil flag, and from 1940 to 1945, also as a merchant flag. The French tricolor was placed in the canton of the maritime flag in 1923. The Sultan wore a personal epee with the yellow and green pentacle on a red field, while the French governor used his own standard.

SPANISH ZONE: In the Spanish protectorate, a square flag was used from its foundation for mercantile purposes, not officially for national purposes. Only in 1937 was a clear and codified mercantile flag adopted, featuring a red field and a green canton charged with a white pentacle and bordered with the same color. Within the borders, the Caliph and his prime minister, the Grand Vizier, had two standards: one green charged with the golden Seal of Solomon and the other with the same motif but in red and black.

INTERNATIONAL ZONE OF TANGIER: Created as a separate body in 1923, the city of Tangier was administered according to the system of legations, that is, components of several nations united for the management of the territory. For general use, the same flag as French Morocco was flown, with a red field and green pentacle; the difference was in the mercantile standard, charged in the canton or flanked by the city's civic coat of arms.

ERRONEOUS FLAGS: There are numerous incorrect depictions of flags, often the result of misinterpretation. Famous examples include the Moroccan flag from the Larousse encyclopedia, published in 1922, where the star on the flag was the same as the Jewish one. This led to cases of actual flags being created based on the design, due to the credibility of the design, which also appeared in subsequent editions until 1938.

CONCLUSIONS: Flags, like the protectorate, gradually disappeared in 1956, with Morocco's independence, with a few exceptions, such as the national flag, identical to the current one, and the sultan's standard, which remained in use until 1999.
