Flag of Friesland Trucker Hat

The Flag of the province of Friesland or Frisian flag (West Frisian: Fryske Flagge; Dutch: Friese vlag), is the official flag of the Netherlands province of Friesland. It consists of four blue and three white diagonal stripes; in the white stripes are a total of seven red pompeblêden, leaves of the yellow water-lily, that may resemble hearts, but according to the official instructions "should not be heart-shaped". The seven red seeblatts (or pompeblêden, as they are called in West Frisian) are a reference to the Frisian "sea countries" in the Middle Ages:[1] independent regions along the coast from Alkmaar to the Weser who were allied against the Vikings. There were never precisely seven distinct regions, but the number seven probably has the connotation "many." Some sources hold, however, that there have been seven Frisian lands: West Friesland, Westergoa, Eastergoa, Hunsingo, Fivelingo, Emsingo, and Jeverland.
