Qing Forbidden City

Published:

Description

A flag I made for a Vatican City-esque Forbidden City under the Qing (I remember reading somewhere that in a KMT victory scenario a situation like this with Pu-Yi could have been possible).

The symbolism should be pretty easy: The two dragons are classic symbols of the Qing, the yellow stands for the Manchu origin. The red circle stands for the Han population of the city, the five-pointed star stands for the "five races" (though the colours have been omitted for design reasons). The blue bars are purely aesthetical.
