Estonia


This Estonian flag design resembles the design of many flags from Western Europe, such as Sweden, Denmark, Finland, Norway, Iceland, and the Faroe Islands. It uses the Scandinavian cross design, but uses the same colors that are on the current Estonian flag. The Estonians consider themselves more Nordic than Baltic. Many Baltic flag designs have horizontal tricolors, and the current flag of Estonia has the horizontal tricolor design.
