Flag Detail
On May 29, 1918, Finland formally adopted their flag. Its 11:18 ratio reveals a blue cross against a white backdrop. The blue cross is supposed to symbolize the national lakes and sky, while the white hue stands for snow and winter. The flag's specific design has historical significance since it was an armored forces arm of the Finnish Army used throughout the fight for freedom from Russia, 1917-18.
