Redesigning European Union Flags, day 5: Cyprus

Current Flag:

I have never really liked this flag. I think that it’s because I don’t like having the shape of a country on its flag. Borders can fluctuate, even those with the sea. Also, this flag could look like a surrender flag if there was no wind. I think that the olive branch is quite nice though.

My Redesign:

No symbolism has changed at all. The white with the olive branch represents the peace between the Greek and Turkish Cypriots, and the orange represents copper deposits.
