 The National Flag of the Emirate of Arbor. | |
| Use | National flag and ensign |
|---|---|
| Proportion | 3:5 |
| Adopted | 1685 AN |
| Designer | Gustaaf Vermeylen |
The Flag of Arbor or the National flag of the Emirate of Arbor symbolizes Arbor, the beacon of freedom on Micras. For the first time this flag flew over the Al-Hamra castle on 5.XIII.1685 AN.
Design
The design of the flag is an amalgamation of different flags, namely: the flag of the Tassity Mansabdar and the Franco-Batavian Empire. The flag of the Tassity Mansabdar is reversed in colour. The original flag has a white crescent on a red surface, while the flag of Arbor has a red crescent on a white background. This has to do with the view that the current Tassity Mansabdar is apostate to the Kaiser, now emir. But only the loyal Tassity Mansabdar remains.
The flag of the Franco-Batavian Empire forms the major part of the flag of Arbor. This flag consists of a horizontal tricolour of dark blue, red and orange, from top to bottom.

Alternative origin
There is an alternative theory about the origin of the crescent moon in the flag of Arbor. The crescent in the flag of the Tassity Mansabdar is different than the crescent of the flag of Arbor. Not only in colour, but also in shape. It can be argued that the crescent of Arbor looks more like the crescent of the coat of arms of Tas Neemia, the homeland of the Tassity Mansabdar.
But the most common alternative theory is that the crescent moon refers to the letter C, pointing to the flag of Craitland. The connection between that flag and the flag of Arbor is then the Craitism.
