Happy International Vexillology Day 🎌

In the same spirit & theme as my post on International Heraldry Day, I thought it would be particularly appropriate to share my current thinking on how the Scottish Saltire would look had it been realised as a Japanese monshō 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇯🇵

The first of those was a historic-cultural park in Zalavar, Zala County. This place was a melting pot of Slavic, Avar, Germanic and Hungarian ethnicities. Kocelj, a ruler in Frankish Lower Pannonia even hosted saints Cyril and Methodius.
