Realistic & Immersive Country Flags
IRONMAN COMPATIBLE – will work with every version of the game
_____
Intended as the most comprehensive and complete flag pack on Steam Workshop – prioritizing historical accuracy with vanilla feel over meme flags.
Made by historical accuracy WW2/flag fanatic who isn’t able to play vanilla hoi4 because of its many inaccuracies.
1492 flags including:
– all vanilla countries,
– formable nations,
– newly added countries from all new patches and DLCs,
– some completely new flags that were not included in vanilla hoi4 (like the Franco-British Union).
Feel free to post your opinions and suggestions in the comments down below.

FAQ:
– Why X flag looks like Y when it should look like Z?
— I’ve made/selected/chosen all of the flags in the mod by myself. Post your observation in the comments – if it’s my mistake I’ll correct it.
– Why did you upload the mod when there are already so many flag mods for HoI4 on Steam Workshop?
— None of the mods I’ve seen were as comprehensive as this one. So far only the Project FLAGS seems to be on par with this mod – as both replace all vanilla flags.
– Why does this X african/formable nation has a flag like this?
— Most of the african and formable nations didn’t exist by the time of WW2 so obviously I had to use later flags from ’60s or ’70s.
– Why doesn’t flag X change between democratic/neutral/fascist version?
— Because historically it never changed even when government has changed. For ex. Romania, Japan, Italy etc. were using the same flags even after the change of government.
– Is there some sort of censored version without totalitarian symbols?
— There was, but I stopped updating it… 🙁
– I like Project FLAGS mod (or any other similar mod) more than your mod.
— Good for you. This mod is only intended to give you an alternative.
– Some communist flags are really strange…
— Give me the idea for replacement then. I am open to suggestions.
– Why Austrian fascist flag is literally German fascist flag?
— Because the Austrian fascist party is the DNSAP (an Austrian faction of NSDAP). Fatherland Front is not fascist in the game – it’s non-aligned. Austrian flag under FF is already included in the mod. It’s intended to be like this and flags in this mod are historically accurate. I don’t care if they’re "boring".
