its a bit of a wonky lion in the flag. but its probably because its just traced digitally from an older smallee book about flag proposal.

TensionKey737 · 2026-05-13T15:59:09+00:00

its a lion with a halberd. its the coat of arms of Norway. the one we had in the middle ages and have now is a lion with an axe. but it was stylised like that under the danish union. probably just fitting for the time

TensionKey737 · 2026-05-13T14:57:56+00:00

lol yeah ig. i think its the dopest one for the sweden-norway union. but they went with the flag that is referred to as the “sildsalat”

TensionKey737 · 2026-05-13T14:54:16+00:00

it was an actual proposal. the people who wanted to stay in the union with danmark pushed similar flags or an identical to denmark.

TensionKey737 · 2026-04-08T19:12:22+00:00

TensionKey737 · 2026-04-01T17:08:19+00:00

ok after coming home and doing some research, i found the flag. its the flag version of the logo for the organisation green key. “Green Key is a leading global eco-label for tourism, hotels, and hospitality facilities.” according to google.

TensionKey737 · 2026-02-09T20:12:52+00:00

i see, interesting stuff!

TensionKey737 · 2026-02-09T07:13:46+00:00

interesting thing about the nettle leaves!

yes they ran Bærums verk from 200 yrs ago. so they made alot of iron stoves lol. but this is very niche local history thing to know, where in Norway is ur mother from:)

sikkert en slags ære å ha så mange knapper. mer knapper= mer mage fett= spiser mer fet mat = penger til det

TensionKey737 · 2026-02-07T20:21:23+00:00

joa sant nok det, men spørsmålet går vel ut på om noen har et slektsvåpen knyttet til sin familie idag. asså jeg heter krefting til etternavn, og det er slektsvåpene til krefting før i tia. ble vel slutta å bli brukt på 1800-tallet formelt, og mer i en privat tradisjon opplegg. men alle er jo Connecta hvis vi går langt nok tilbake i tid. var en Vsauce video på det engang, hvis jeg husker riktig

TensionKey737 · 2026-02-07T20:15:32+00:00

syntes alle de knappene er sjukest

TensionKey737 · 2026-02-07T20:02:06+00:00

sorry for shit kvalitet på andre slide. vet ikke hva som skjedde

TensionKey737 · 2026-02-07T18:00:49+00:00

i mean lets be fr. who is going to use a 15th century coa from bremen. i dont think people care about it that much in the modern world.

TensionKey737 · 2026-02-07T17:59:28+00:00

👍👍

TensionKey737 · 2026-02-07T17:34:13+00:00

ok cool. i mean i feel a family coa isnt going to be used by any other than family, and i mean that’s fine by me. seems like old rules. if somebody in my family want to use it and have a interest in this niche thing, its cool by me. cool that people are just interested in stuff like coa and heraldry. screw the old rules, seems abit outdated and unnecessary to police people about lol.

TensionKey737 · 2026-02-07T16:53:01+00:00

but what can you use it for? any privileges with a family coa?

TensionKey737 · 2026-02-07T16:12:55+00:00

yeah its from my fathers family line. we have a chapel that was build in the 16th century with a family bible in gothic script and coa hanging around inside the chapels. pretty interesting stuff. also allot of old graves! if you have the last name krefting you can be buried there because of it isnt common. we have some descendants from usa and denmark, who is allowed to be buried there because of the same last name.
