So Möbius band Dutch flag is allowed?

[–] Metostopholes@midwest.social 6 points 6 days ago (1 children)

No, you need two edges, one red one blue.

[–] lud@lemm.ee 2 points 5 days ago

Normal flags have 4 edges though.

21:9 sounds unique enough for me

[–] wetnoodle@sopuli.xyz 2 points 6 days ago

Ultrawide is nice though I'm partial to super ultra wide (32:9)

[–] Hagdos@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Is this true? Is this unique to the Dutch flag, or do most tricolor flags not really specify this?

[–] donuts@lemmy.world 8 points 6 days ago

As a Dutchie I had to look it up.

There are no regulations on the dimensions of the flag. In the un-enforced Flag Act of 1937, the ratio of height to length was set as 2:3, and generally this ratio is still followed.

So technically yeah, we don't mind apparently!
