The Flag of Sweden

The Swedish national flag, in Swedish Sveriges flagga, has been the flag of Sweden since the 16th century, though it was not officially recognized until 1906. It is blue with a yellow Scandinavian cross in the center, sharing the same characteristics as the other Nordic cross flags. The blue and yellow colors have been known since the 13th century, while the flag's design was not established until around the 16th century. It is likely inspired by the Danish flag, Dannebrog.
