Description A new flag I made for my United Kingdom of Iberia Map .

It's sort of based on the Union Flag (which is in my opinion one of the best executed representations of a political union) and features the Cross of Burgundy, a popular historical representation of Spain and still featured in the coat of arms of the Spanish monarchy today, overlaid upon the Cross of the Order of Christ, representing Portugal as it was used in the sails of the ships of the Portuguese Discoveries and is still used today in the Portuguese navy and air force. The arrangement represents that Spain was the dominant party in the union at the time of its establishment.

This may seem like an odd request, but could you possibly cut a triangle out of this using both hoist corners and the absolute center of the flag? I believe it would make an excellent looking air force insignia/roundel, in a similar vein to Hungary and Estonia.

That's actually quite an interesting idea, I'll have a go!
