Historical flags

Throughout history, only one other flag has been used on the island, it was the sultan's personal flag used from the unification of the island to the French annexation. According to Lucien Philippe, the standard of the Sultan was a crimson square flag with a golden fringe and seven stars representing the seven Sultanates unified into one. The pattern of the stars shall recall the map of the island.[2]
