Serbia

Russia

The flag is a reversed Flag of Russia. This is not an accident but an intention: Prior to First Serbian Uprising a delegation from Serbia went to Russia to seek for help. The help is granted, and delegation wanted to show their acknowledgement by asking to use Russian flag as Serbia's military flag in battles. Now, there are two stories: one says that it was granted, but that delegation didn't brought a Russian flag when returning home and forgot how colors were ordered. The second one says that it was not granted and Serbs then used reversed Russian flag in spite to Russians.

In unofficial use the flag is oftenly embrodied with Serbian Coat of arms or just it's main symol, the Serbian cross.
