Beschreibung
--A flag more appropriate for the Roman Empire ('byzantine empire') before the Palaiologos Restoration of Constantinople and the resurrection of the Roman Empire that followed with it (1265). For historicity, disable this mod if you are going to begin playing as the Roman Empire after the year 1204.--

Incorrect. The Khi-Rho flag fell out of use following the 6th Century, then being replaced by a red banner witha gold cross. This would later have Greek χ's be put in the empty red pockets (these standing for Khristos, or Christ); Then for some reason they switched to gold circles. Roman Emperor Romanus II Diogenes made a new design but after his defeat at Manzikert that was abandoned due to the perceived taint his defeat had on the flag. Going back tot he variant with four circles, it would continue to be sued until the fall of the Roman Empire in 1204, its 1261 resurrection giving a newer design with the recognizable four B's.


Use of the Labarum Chi Rho flag started duiring the rise of Constantine the Great just before the Battle of Milvian Bridge in 312 and officially became the flag of the Roman Empire with the end of the Tetarchy and the cementing of the Dominante government system (Emperor having unlimited power) in 325. It would fall out of fashion after the 500's, but with this mod you can go back to those groovy days of germanic and early slavic invasions!

"" ...depicts a cross quartered with the letters ϹΒΡΔ for the motto Σταυρὲ σου βοήθει Ρωμανόν δεσπότην ("Thy Cross aid the Lord Romanos").""

The Chi-Rho was actually sometimes used alongside wreaths.

Interesting info about the Roman flag, out of curiosity: what did the design proposed by Romanos II look like? I can't seem to find it online. Do we know what it included?

@jmjacob2016 Maybe. It was historically never used as a national flag for the Roman Empire, but it was the dyastic symbol for the Palaiologos dynasty. After 1453, the East Orthodox Church used the symbol to show their closeness to the historical Roman Empire with it's last dynasty, and it would later play an important role in propaganda symbolage by the Russian Empire.

Can you also make one with the Imperial double eagle?

@The ClubberFuck Yeah its no problem! I had fun making this flag, getting the laurel crown and combining it with the Chi Rho symbol in a circle. Made it feel more Grand. I am uncertain on the laurel's historicity with the labarum, but damnit, it looks good!
