Situation

The Baltic countries used to have a Swedish speaking population early this century.

Proposal from Andersson

[First proposal for a flag for the Swedish speaking population
in the Baltic Countries]
by Jan Oskar Engene and Antonio Martins , 13 March 2000

The flag described by Andersson [and94] was proposed in 1992, but I am unsure whether this means there are still native Swedish speakers to be represented by the flag. Anyway, the flag is yellow-red-white, in proportions 16 : 25,6 (6-1-2-1-6 : 7,6-1-2-1-14). The colours come from the flags of the Nordic countries with closest ties to the area (Denmark, Finland and Sweden).
