Flags of Forgotten Countries

Dark Roasted Blend takes a look at the flags of nations and empires that no longer exist. The double eagle is a recurring motif, found in the flags of the Byzantine Empire, Imperial Russia, Austria-Hungary, and Yugoslavia. Pictured is the Russian flag that was in use until the 1917 revolution. Link

    It's on the Albanian flag; not the Yugoslavian.

    It's actually Serbian logo. Look at Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Flag_of_Serbia.svg
