[Q] Ban on the Fascist French Flag?

Postby Syrvanian Republic » Fri May 19, 2023 6:17 pm

Recently I've been doing some research into international fascist movements in the past, and this has been a question nagging at the back of my mind for some time. Considering I recall seeing users with the flag of the Kingdom of Italy, used while Mussolini was in power, I've been wondering if there's any ban on the flag of Fascist France, known more commonly as Vichy France or the French State.

While I understand this is probably a rather silly question, it's one of my many non-shower shower thoughts. I thank you for reading this and for your response ahead of time.

What flag are you talking about exactly? Because the flag of the Third Republic, the French State, the Provisional Government of the French Republic, and the Fourth and Fifth Republics are all the same

I'm specifically talking about the one often seen in media, pictured below.

Which, for the record, is Philippe Pétain's personal flag as Chief of the French State, an office only he held for the entirety of its existence.

Don't know if it's allowed to do this on a [Q] but bump.

The entire reason I ask is because I had the idea of a French State Republic, and it'd be used as the flag until the Communists win elections.

Don't play at being a Nazi.


May that be clarified? As if it is allowed, I would in no way shape or form condone Nazism whether ICly or OOCly, with some of the first things the nation would do on forum being banning any and all Nazist movements, sweeping government reform, and the like.

General rule of thumb, if you have to ask it’s probably not ok.
