County Flag


by Zeljko Heimer 31 Devember 1998


I believe that the info comes from "Zaszlovilag" vex-magazine. The flag was adopted in 1991, with official ratio 1:2 (but it seems that the flags in practice are made somewhat shorter). The county was made by joining the former counties of Hajdú (arms granted around 1408) and Bihar (arms granted 1690) and city of Debrecen. Arms of Hajdu and Bihar were alloyed in 1991, and colours of Debrecen were used in the flag.The image of the COA stems from Hajdu Bihar pages at http://www.hbmo.hu/index1.htm .A 64Kb bigger image of the CoA is availible at: http://www.hbmo.hu/images/megye.jpg
