Estontetso: New Coat of Arms, new passports


Winfried Schrödter
 

Duceta (EVN). At year end, Esto introduces a beautiful Grand CoA. 
https://vexillium.fandom.com/wiki/Estontetso#Coat_Of_Arms
It takes up traditions from old banners and is first used on the new passports issued from next year on.
https://vexillium.fandom.com/wiki/Estontetsan_passports
The passports are issued in six different colours:
  • Blue: Normal passport for private trips
  • Green: Service passport for official and business trips
  • Turquoise: Service passport for personnel of trains, shipping lines and airlines travelling abroad
  • Red: Passport for Esto's diplomatic corps
  • Black: Passport for Constabulary, persons permitted to carry weapons
  • Bright red: "The Red", the dreaded and hated ID for Secret Service and detectives of the Criminal Investigation Directorate - "when you get to see, it's too late to flee"
[TECH: Have a good New Year!]

Hallo Winfried, great to see some new work pop up on Vex!

As for some of the unidentified symbols on the CoA - 4 is the old flag of Maryport, 7 is the Star of Lendia/Lendian flag, 8 is the old flag of Bowdani.  Not sure what the overly simple 10 and 13 were supposed to refer to, but the Empire apparently laid claim to most of the Western Hemisphere at some point! 😆

Happy New Year 323 to all!
Cheers ~
Max

Thank you, Max! I'll tell the INHERVEX (Inst.of Hraldry and Vexillology) of the ESTACOS (Esto.Academy of Science)!

Was digging around my archive some, and from what I can tell the 10 blue-only was the flag of Dascagnia (northern  Dascunya), while the 13 yellow-red was Uestadagnia (southern Dascunya).

The history of the Empire of Liliana is not as widely known as it should be. Here is an overview map:
https://vexillium.fandom.com/wiki/Liliani_Empire#Overview_of_the_formation_of_the_Empire_-_2000-1119_BP
Liliana broke down and gave way to the Empire of Estontetso, which began on an area approximately like modern Estontetso, and finally grew nearly as large as Liliana.

Let's hope that such expansion is not attempted again. Pres. Hombruch is up to anything.
