Description: Reconstruction of the flag proposed by Rigas Velestinlis-Feraios for his projected pan-Balkan Federation, as outlined in the 1797 New Political Constitution of the Inhabitants of Rumeli, Asia Minor, the Islands of the Aegean, and the principalities of Moldavia and Wallachia. Red stands for the imperial purple, white for the righteousness of the fight against tyranny, and black for the death in the struggle for liberty. It also features three crosses for the Christian nations of the Balkans, and the club of Hercules.
