| The '''flag of [[Nova Caradia]]''', occasionally known as the '''Banner of the Republic''' (Sarnechi: Steagul Republicii), is the national flag of the Republic of Nova Caradia. The flag was adopted with the signing of the 1689 constitution of the republic, which detailed the flag, coat of arms, and other symbols of the nation.

| The flag features three equivalent horizontal stripes alternating crimson-white-crimson. The white in this pattern represents the new beginning embodied by the republic, while the crimson represents those who lost their lives in the civil war that ultimately resulted in the republic's creation. Along the centre stripe are four black stars, two either side of centre. These represent the four cities that formed the basis of the nation at its beginning ([[Rorfast]], [[Mina Mițura]], [[Brațav]], and [[Barochești]]). Finally, in the centre of the flag is a black icon of crossed swords, often called the [[Coat of arms of Nova Caradia|săbiile încrucișate]], which represent peace.

| The republic has two official naval ensigns, one military and one civilian. All military ships and civilian ships that operate outside of the republic's territorial waters are required to fly both the national flag and their appropriate ensign at all times.
| |
| | |
| The civilian ensign consists of a white field with two perpendicular crimson bars and a white circle in the centre. The military ensign is identical, except that it displays the săbiile încrucișate of the national flag inside the white circle.
