About these flags

The states of July 1914, before the First World War, with a flag of their own and the one they used then: the sovereign ones, the British dominions and others such as Egypt or Tibet. Colonies, flying their ruler's flag, are not counted. Some are approximate:

  • Austria-Hungary: Austria-Hungary had no common national flag: this is its civil and merchant flag (1869-1918).
  • Russian Empire: The white, blue and red tricolour was the national flag from 1896; the black, yellow and white imperial flag was also used.
  • Spain: The red and yellow flag of the time without the coat of arms (the state version carried it).
  • Andorra: The 1866-1934 version (blue, yellow and red in equal stripes); the coat of arms was drawn in several ways.
  • Liechtenstein: Red and blue, the principality's colours before 1921; there are few sources on how they were arranged then.
  • Greece: The land flag (white cross on blue); the striped flag was used at sea.
