Nordic cross : ウィキペディア英語版
Nordic Cross flag

The term Nordic Cross flag describes certain flags bearing the design of the so-called Nordic or Scandinavian cross, a cross symbol in a rectangular field, with the center of the cross shifted towards the hoist.
All of the Nordic countries have adopted such flags in the modern period, and while the Scandinavian cross is named for its use in the national flags of the Scandinavian nations, the term is used universally by vexillologists, in reference not only to the flags of the Nordic countries.〔(EnchantedLearning.com ); (Historical flags of the world: The scandinavian cross ); Eric Inglefield: "Fahnen und Flaggen" (translated to German by Dagmar Hahn), Delphin Verlag, Munich 1986, p.16〕
While the design originates as a Christian cross, and as such ultimately derives from 13th-century designs in use during the Crusades,
the characteristic shift of the center to the hoist side is early modern, first described
the Danish civil ensign (''Koffardiflaget'') for merchant ships in a regulation of 11 June 1748, which specified the shift of the cross center towards the hoist as "the two first fields must be square in form and the two outer fields must be 6/4 lengths of those".
The Danish design was adopted for the flags of Norway (civil ensign 1821) and Sweden (1906), both derived from a common ensign used during the Union between Sweden and Norway 1818–1844, Iceland (1915) and Finland (1917); some of the subdivisions of these countries used this as inspiration for their own flags. The Norwegian flag was the first Nordic cross flag with three colours.
All Nordic flags may be flown as gonfalons as well.

==Flags of the Nordic countries==
Note that most of these flags are historical or have not been officially adopted and their use remains limited.
Some of the flags in this list do not have official status. Also, note that flag proportions may vary between the different flags and sometimes even between different versions of the same flag.
