The Flag of New Dawn is the official flag of the nation of New Dawn. The flag, which was widely used when the nation was called The Empire of the New Dawn, and 2 years after the nation put in place The New Order of Structure in 1619, in 1621, the flag was recognized by The New Dawn Legislature as the official one for the new nation. Originally, it is believed to have been designed by a regiment of The Empire of the New Dawn Army, in the town of Crucifix, when they were about to go into battle. It is believed then other regiments adopted the flag, and eventually it was being used across the whole country.

The flag's design is 3 stripes, blue, green, and white, with a center coat of arms that includes two green and red curved lines, with a cross in the center of the green line. The blue stripe is said to represent the blue of the sky, with green representing nature and plants, and the white representing a blank slate, or being able to start anew. The curved red and green lines in the center create a semicircle, which represents the rising sun of the new dawn, and the cross in the center stands for Christianity, which is the main religion of the country, as well as a large part of the culture of the nation.

The flag, as in most countries, is treated with extreme honor. Interestingly, however, the rules concerning flag damage and honor are much more relaxed than other countries', with it not being a crime to burn the flag or damage it, and you are allowed to display it any way you like. Even more interestingly, there are less cases of flags being damaged or destroyed in the nation than any other country besides The United States of Quentin.
