A vexillologic "bug" #2

Closed PabRod closed 8 years ago

PabRod commented 8 years ago

This is not a bug, but it is worth reporting:

The spanish flag used in the infographic for Ramón Llull was the national flag between 1843–1873 and 1874–1931. Provided Spain didn't existed as a nation in the times of Llull, I suggest using the aragonese flag or the current day spanish flag.

I had a feeling I'd got that one wrong! Haha Thanks.

buntine commented 8 years ago

Ok, I've used this one now: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/18/Flag_of_Aragon.svg/1000px-Flag_of_Aragon.svg.png

Is that correct?

PabRod commented 8 years ago

Oops... I don't think that's correct. That's the flag of modern day Aragón (administrative territory). Llull was born in the kingdom of Aragón (flag).

I´ve seen that you also use the flag of modern day Germany, so maybe the best idea is just using the flag of modern day Spain (here) in order to follow the same scheme and avoiding bizarre and nerdish historiographic issues... like the one I opened! xD

buntine commented 8 years ago

Sorry! Yes, I decided for most of them to use the modern-day equivalents as I got myself confused a bunch of times trying to figure out which flag was correct. Europe has changed so many times over the past 1,000 years!

Ok, I will deploy with the modern day Spanish flag. Thanks again. :)
