===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 24 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. | |||
