| 词条 | Flag of Östergötland |
| 释义 | The flag of Östergötland is an unofficial provincial flag in Sweden which was created by Per Andersson from Mjölby in 1972. Back then, the flag was a part of a tourist project called "Vätterlandet", and was first supposed to represent the entire region of Götaland. Its purpose was to attract more visitors and tourists, but the project failed and the flag was more or less forgotten. However, the flag has started to get some attention, and is more and more used by local inhabitants in Östergötland. The flag has the same proportions as the Swedish flag, but with reversed colours; Blue cross on a yellow field. The cross represents the two major canals that goes through Östergötland, Göta canal and Kinda canal. The yellow field represents the yellow hills of Östergötland called "östgötaslätten".[1] The flag has also a great similarity to "Pestflaggan" or the "Plagueflag", a proposed flag for Åland, which was rejected by the municipality who thought it was too ugly.[2] 1. ^Bild på flaggan på Länsstyrelsen i Östergötlands webbplats {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100115225950/http://www.lansstyrelsen.se/ostergotland/Om_Lanet/ |date=2010-01-15 }} {{DEFAULTSORT:Flag of Ostergotland}}2. ^Information på "Flags of the world".
