The motif of St. Clement's cross in escutcheon and the cross écotée are recurring in many other jurisdictional and governmental flags, but only the color is mandated, not the use of the motifs.

Burgundie's national flag has a ratio of 1:2 and scaled proportionally to its use, typically 1/5 of the height of the flagpole to the nearest and larger 5 meters.
*2 meter wall mounted flagpole at a 66* angle (common for displays on government buildings with a plaza or courtyard), flag dimensions: 1m x 2m
*5 meter free standing,vertical flagpole (common for display in front of municipal and county buildings), flag dimensions: 1m x 2m
*10-15 meter flagpole (common for display in front of regional and provincial government buildings, as well as at embassies overseas), flag dimensions: 3m x 6m
*20-25 meter flagpole (common for display at military bases and country and national government buildings) flag dimensions: 5m x 10m
===Usage and display of the national flag of Burgundie===
The national flag of Burgundie is a state flag and not a civil flag. It is not permitted to be owned, displayed, or used in design by non-government agencies. As a visual representation of [[Burgundie]] it is considered a sacred symbol and therefore above "base and vulgar displays of nationalist sentiment". The flag is permitted to be flown on government buildings when it is conducting/providing its mission essential functions on that premises, in the proper orientation, well lit, not in a state of neglect or disrepair, and flown highest amongst all other flags.
The flag is also permitted to be flown in cemeteries where veterans are buried and may be used as a temporary drape on a casket of a deceased veteran and presented to a survivor of the veteran's legally recognized family for "tasteful and respectful displace in the recipients domicile, not observable from the outside of the domicile." Because [[Burgundie]] does not have a standing army in [[Levantia]] this is more common in [[Equatorial Ostiecia]] and the provinces of the [[BORA]].
Repercussions for civilians for the first offense is a 12 hr course on the Vexillological standards of Burgundie. For a second offense it is the same course again and a 100 [[Taler]] fine and classified as a misdemeanor. A third offence is considered a felony and carries a jail sentence of 5-15 yrs, automatically assigned to a penal battalion but not eligible for expedited time served. In the rare case of a fourth offense the offender is stripped of their citizenship if they have it and given a choice of permanent exile or be put on trial for treason.
For businesses using the likeness of the flag, a first offense is a 24hr Vexillological standards of Burgundie course for the artist and the approving manager as well as a weighted fine to account for 1% of annual income. A second offense resulted in a repeat of the course for the artist, the manager, but to include senior management, as well as a fine of 2% of net income. A third offence results in the revokation of the businesses licenses and a surrender of its intellectual property to the public domain.

Country flags also maintain a 1:2 ratio and must contain the colors of the national flag of Burgundie:
*Sanguine Burgoignesc R:127 G:0 B:0
*Azul Burgoignesc R:0 G:105 B:180
*Argent Standard R:255 G:255 B:255
*Or Burgoignesc R:255 G:194 B:0
While they all, except BORA contain the cross écotée there is no specific requirement for this to be the case and it is expressed in a variety of orientations and color combinations.
===Usage and display of country flags===
The country flags act as both a state flag and a civil flag and can be flown by civilians and the government alike. Flags produced for civilian use are manufactured at a government manufactory and must be exact replicas of the flag's design. They are not to be combined in whole or in part with other designs for any usage. The flag is to be flown in the proper orientation, well lit, not in a state of neglect or disrepair, and flown highest amongst all other flags except the national flag of Burgundie.
To store a country flag, it is folded in such a way that the badge is centered in the folded flag. For most flags this is achieved by folding the flag into thirds lengthwise so that the middle third is facing up and then folding the fly and the hoist inward, leaving a double length of either side on the last fold, folding it across the length and the tucking the remaining length into the pocket under the field with the badge to secure the flag into its folded shape. Because the flag of [[Equatorial Ostiecia]] is a nordic cross design, it is folded the same lengthwise, but only one demi-fold of the hoist is made before the fly is folded in on itself and then the last double length of the fly is folded over and tucked into the pocket as before.
When the flag is in a state of neglect or disrepair, it is brought to a local post office where they are collected and sent to the government manufactory where they are anointed in oil, a thanksgiving is said over them by a priest, and they are incinerated. This typically occurs once after the rain season in the different territories of [[Burgundie]] and once after the hurricane/storm season.

Ratio 1:1.5
Provincial flags follow a standard based on their country flag. For [[BORA]] provinces the standard is the BORA vertical, equal width tricolor with a badge of the province in the center band and two crosses of St. Clement in the other bands.
For [[Ile Burgundie]], it is the flag of Ile Burgundie in canton and a solid field of different colors for each province.
For [[Nostrestran]], it is the flag of Nostrestran in canton and a field of solid sanguine Burgoignesc and a badge of the province.
For [[Faramount]] it is the grrffon of Faramount in an equilateral triangle at the hoist with variation on the remainder of the fly for each province.
For [[Equatorial Ostiecia]], it is the Equatorisiose sol in canton and variation on the remainder of the fly for each province.

Because these departments represent the whole nation they are maintained at the same 1:2 ratio that the [[Vexillological_standards_of_Burgundie#National_flag|national flag]] is maintained at.
