- antaviana 9y agoApparently the flag in the image posted was Photoshoped. The Spanish flag in 1714 was white, both for Habsburgs and Bourbons. Looks like flag revisionism to me.
- gfiorav 9y agoIt was officially adopted 70 years later but it had been used in war ships far earlier than that. That’s where it came from: I was made to be easily identifiable while at sea. https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bandera_de_Espa%C3%B1a https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bandera_de_Espa%C3%B1a
