  1. Yes, I know that this was only the imperial war flag and not the official state flag of the German empire, this is a banter sub and not r/history.

  2. Oh Hans..

    We know, that is not the flag you meant, that the current one is downgraded from.

    We know which one you meant.

  3. Certified Ronny post.

    Our heroes from 1848 are spinning in their graves in light of this cuckery.

  4. Honestly I hate all tricolours because they’re boring aside from Germany 🇩🇪 and Estonia 🇪🇪. Colours work the best

  5. As much as I love to simp for Prussia, I like our modern flag better 🇩🇪

  6. You should replace the eagle for a precious little schmetaling.

  7. Thats because the good one reminds everyone of Nazis. That cross specifically was used on Nazi planes.

  8. Really? The Reichskriegsflagge? You do know that this was just the flag of the imperial navy, don’t you?

  9. The current German flag is literally a downgraded Spanish flag over a black background.

  10. Even the old east german flag is better than the current one.

    What happened to putting cool symbols on flags?

  11. Fuck Prussia. All my homies would have wanted to democratic revolution of 1848 to unite Germany.

  12. I like the modern German flag. Something about the contrast of black and red and the red into the yellow is really nice to look at. It’s very simple but I like it. Prussia’s flag is incredible though

  13. Why is it a flag in a flag? I guess Germans weren’t always so logical and efficient.

  14. Okay, but the Prussian Flag is kind of bad-ass. Black and white? Awesome!

  15. Here is the meaning of the colors.

    Black: skies in Germany upgraded to black clouds thanks to green coal energy.

    Red: communist Berlin

    Yellow: top notch sewerage systems below the ground

  16. They’re not even the same kind of flag. One’s a national flag, the other’s a war flag.
