Interfrisian flag

As of today, two designs for an "Interfrisian flag" have been proposed. The first design was created in 2006 by the Groep fan Auwerk and is based on the flags of Norway and Iceland.^[3] In 2009, an alternative design was adopted by the Interfrisian Council, featuring elements of the flags of its three sections: North, East and West Frisia.^[2]
