Flags

A Reprent/Personif has four forms. Their fully human form, their semi-human form, of which is divided into one with flag skin but human-coloured hair and eyes and one with flag hair and eyes but human coloured skin, and their flag form.

They aren't fully humans, because humans certainly don't get tied to the government or people. What I mean is, tones such as light, dark, tan, or what-not. And natural eye colour such as black, brown, blue, hazel, green, and those affected by albinism.

You see when Representations/Personifications are born, they aren't born with the flag. This is the reason why the only way to determine whether or not your child is a Reprent/Personif is by waiting a year to see if they aged physically or not, like how a normal average human would.

Flags would normally come by when their parental unit(s) flag changes into their last one, or the State that just got established would be their last. As an example, we should take on from a character, which is when Weimar Republic's flag change happened. An in depth explanation would be given in another part of the book.

This happened when the German Empire was proclaimed in 18 January 1871, in where his flag finally appeared as a mix between Saxe-Weimar-Eisenach and German Empire's flag. Which is understandable because those two are his fathers (to the world, for him, they're his father and mother). This did worry dear Prussia, but him and his awesome egotistical ways said that this would be a sign that the German Empire would last a very long time (no).

Saxe-Weimar-Eisenach's flag from 1813 - 1897 is a tricolour made out of Black, Green, and Gold. While the German Empire's flag is Black, White, and Red. Weimar Republic (hence the current Germany's flag too) is Black, Red, and Gold.

I mean, I suppose Nazi State (who was also the Weimar Republic)'s flag changed into the German Empire one in 1933, but that was changed again in 1935 to the Hakenkreuz we all know. And then Germany's flag in the East added her Coats of Arms, so just add that.

And as additional information, the German Black, Red, and Gold was first used in 1778 by the Principality of Reuss-Greiz, but he isn't related to Weimar Republic. So it was a bit weird when that flag changing shit happened and Reich shared the same flag as Reuss-Greiz, but there's nothing anyone can do. Ah, and this flag was also bared by the Principality of Waldeck and Pyrmont.

What if their parent(s) died centuries ago?

Still the same process. Basically Italy's flag was the one for the Italian Republic, but he barely used that form so he wasn't really aware of his flag until the late 1600s. It's basically foreshadowing. Same can be said to having children, but they're all dumb so don't think of it as a sign of their fall in the future.

What if their parent(s) become their own state (like how Prussia was German Empire's state)?

We look at the timeline of flags, then. What's Prussia's last flag change before he was part of the German Empire? A black eagle holding a sword and a rod with a crown on a white background. 1803 was when German Empire got his Black, White, and Red flag, so yeah.

What if you are a Co-Representation/Personification (Austria-Hungary and German Empire as German Confederation)?

Then the flag used as that entity you Represent/Personify would not be used as your flag form. There are exceptions, though, like how if a child Co-Reprents/Personifs with their parent, like how Electorate of Saxony and Albertine Duchies was like. The flag was kept by his mother.

What if they're under occupation (like how Germany was in 1945)?

Well, I'm sure I haven't mentioned that Nazi State disappeared in 1949, but yes anyways, his flag stayed the same Red background, White circle, Black Hakenkreuz, so his flag didn't really change to the C Pennant. But everyone from Germany's surrender until his death called Nazi State as "C", so yeah, they just don't want to call that demon guy with his name "Reich".
