The national flag of Victoria is an offset white cross on a coloured field of red and blue.

The current flag was adopted in 1702 AN, following the Declaration of Buthminster, with its design intended to be an amalgamation of two former official flags of Victoria.

Former flags

Vicborg (1606–1685)

The "Vicborg" tricolour was the flag of Victoria used during its time under Gotzer, and subsequently Storish, control. Its design was based around that of the flag of Gotzborg, which also used a vertical tricolour, albeit charged with the lesser arms of the monarch.

The colours were adopted by Dundas on 13.XI.1606 and later received Royal Assent by King August Charles II of Gotzborg.

The flag was 50 percent wider than its height (i.e. in the proportion 2:3) and, except in the Victorian navy, had stripes of equal width.
