The gonfalon and the emblem were adopted on the 15th December
1989. The emblem is a white square fimbriated green with a
stylized shape of the region in green. A red line appear under
the square with the words Regione Emilia-Romagna. The
gonfalon is white with the emblem in the middle. There isn’t
any official flag.
Pascal Vagnat, 22 September 1998
Emilia-Romagna has not adopted its flag, but is on the way of
adopting one. A proposal of regional law was made on the 30/3/1999.
The picture of the flag isn't fixed, but it shall have the emblem
(logo) of the region in the middle. The gonfalon of the region is
white with the logo, so it might be that the flag will also be
white, but wait and see...

Pascal Vagnat 7 July 1999
A flag for Romagna is proposed: in two quarters there is the
red cross on white field, while in the other two quarters there
is a yellow cross (green fimbriated) on a red field and 4 yellow
green-fimbriated "C" (something like the Serbian flag).
It has clearly Byzantine roots.

This Italian group uses two symbols with flags. You can see
them here and here . Those images are taken
from the movement site at: http://utenti.tripod.it/libertaemiliana/
Dov Gutterman 15 October 1999
This movement is not pro-independence, rather for autonomy
within the Italian State. In this case I can say there is no
Emilia nation at all, as we were built up from different cultural
and ethnical areas in the last 150 years. All cities here
developed as independent entities, fighting one another for an
ephimeral supremacy, under the flags with the eagle of the Empire
or the keys of the Pope.
