The flag of Maltropia (Irish: Brat Maltróipea) is dark red, white and black with a centred armillary sphere flanked by a laurel and oaken wreath. It was adopted in 1683, based on the earlier flag of the Kingdom of Corcagia, which featured a globe instead of an armillary sphere, dating to the 1460s.
