This organization has a flag: blue with flags of Slav
states arranged in circle.
Eugene Ipavec, 15 November 2006
The organization's web page
states: "The Flag of the Slavic Union is comprised of thirteen flags: the twelve
flags of the Slavic States, plus the flag of the Wends, the Sorbs of Lusatia.
This group, recognized as a national minority in Germany, are a separate Slavic
nation with their own unique language and their own national symbols, including
a flag. Because of this we include them in the flag of the Slavic Union. We also
acknowledge here the Croats of Gradiąte, an original Slavic minority in Austria,
with their own written language slightly different from the official Croatian
language."

The headquarters of the Slavic Union is based in Helsinki, Finland. The first
filial of the Slavic Union it was founded in Serbia, and we are proud to inform
you about it. About Burgenland Croats and "Bunyevtzi", in the explanation about
the flag on the filial site, we probably didn't explain correctly. After the
flag there should be one small table, as on
http://slavia-slavialand.tripod.com where we just acknowledge Burgenland
Croats as a very original Slavic minority out of the official Slavic states. It
does not mean we priorize Burgenland Croats above others, but it is just
interesting that they are very original and they keep their identity far away
from Croatia surrounded by the Romano-Germanic world.

Here is [the charge of] the new official flag of the Slavic union which
has been changed after the division of Serbia and Montenegro and now
is comprised of 14 flags.
The Flag of the Slavic Union is comprised of fourteen flags: the
thirteen flags of the Slavic States, plus the flag of the Wends, the
Sorbs of Lusatia. This group, recognized as a national minority in
Germany, are a separate Slavic nation with their own unique language
and their own national symbols, including a flag. Because of this we
include them in the flag of the Slavic Union.
