Flag of the Brussels-Capital Region On 9 January 2015 the bill was approved by the Parliament of the Brussels-Capital Region, and the flag became official shortly after. The law provides for six different colour schemes of the flag, including two in black and white. The flag is expressly not defined in terms of heraldic terminology (a blazon).

Flag of Sarawak originally made up of a cross, half blue and half red, on yellow, thought to be based on Brooke's coat of arms.

It was retained as a coat-of-arms on a Blue Ensign when Sarawak was ceded to the British Crown on 1 July
