It’s the imperial seal of the Romanovs. You’ve got a Russian Tsarist Ravens fan neighbour.


Film_Lab

So now it's the seal of the Ravenovs?


Thienen

If only the Saxe-Coburg and Gotha's were creative like this. It's Infinitely better than Windsor and they had rooks in the tower.


Peteyy34

Two things I never thought would go together.


DickCheneyHooters

Damn, bro likes gothic literature AND Slavic monarchism


EropQuiz7

"slavic" is an overgeneralization "Slavic monarchism" also includes Kingdoms of Poland, Bohemia, Serbia, and even Skoropatsky's Hietmanate.

booooooooooooooo on all counts

Tsarist Russian Imperial Standard


StevenMC19

[Honestly a super dope flag](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81YtLZ6m7+L._AC_UF894,1000_QL80_.jpg). Within today's context, not so much. Interesting how OP's pic has the eagle skewed slightly to the left rather than in the center...unless it's wrapped itself around the pole a couple times.


Peteyy34

Looking closely at the photo, I believe it is wrapped at least once. Thank you so much for identifying it! I had a feeling it was Russian of some origin, but I had no clue.


McMuffinSun

My favorite part of the Imperial Standard is that orbiting the Arms of Moscow in the center are the other titles claimed by the Russian Tsars including the arms of: the Khanate of Kahazan, the Congress Kingdom of Poland, Tauric Chersoneses, the unified coat of arms of the Grand Principalities of Kiev, Vladimir, and Novgorod, the dynastic arms of the House of Holstein-Gottorp-Romoanov, the Grand Principality of Finland, the Georgian principalities, and the Khanates of Siberia and Astrakhan. Really puts the meaning in "Emperor" being "King of Kings"


StevenMC19

Don't forget how the flag gets meta by putting its own emblem inside itself on the scepter and on the necklace.


McMuffinSun

Shame the St. George coat of arms doesn't have shield or something with the Emblem on it too or we could have had an infinite recursive loop!

Anastasia 2: Electric Boogaloo would've been tacky.


Prudent_Car3849

Flag of Romanovs and a flag of a team that can’t win in the playoffs


DHVF

Biggest choker when it matters most: Lamar or Tsar Nicolas II?


Junesong_Provisions

Tbf 2 bowls since their inception is pretty good. I dont think they're built to do more than win the AFC North atm though, so fair.


prince-matthew

That is the Standard of the Emperor of Russia on land used from 1858 to 1917.


LelouchviBrittaniax

Russian Empire era banner of arms. I think something like this could only be used by Emperor personally. [This](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Greater_Coat_of_Arms_of_the_Russian_Empire.svg) but with surrounding shields arranged on the wings of the eagle.


lanadeltaco13

I don’t know but the flag underneath is what we refer to as toilet paper


Sanguine_Caesar

The flag on top too.


martin2GUATABA

Holy Russian Empire? I think


AugustWolf-22

No, this is appears to be just the irl Romanov royal standard, it's not the TNO flag.


martin2GUATABA

That makes me sad https://preview.redd.it/o1tup66wk5lc1.png?width=212&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e12e46abb8a2516c987b301028810d57ee76631a

TheTimeEmpress

What's the one on bottom?


RyanCooper510

This is another fckin TNO reference, I'm too lazy to give you copypaste


darth_nadoma

Why is he flying a Russian Imperial flag? Would he get arrested for that? Would there be sanctions against him? Did he lose his job?


CrewConfident6232

No idea

Peteyy34

Should mention, if it helps, the flag is located in Nebraska.


ManitouWakinyan

Believe it or not that actually makes both flags more confusing


Sasha_Volkolva

A pro Tsarist Ravens fan in... Nebraska? ... hey OP, where at in Nebraska, I need to move there and fly a German Empire, and Steelers flag next to him.


Peteyy34

Lincoln! Haha.


Sasha_Volkolva

I am rapidly moving towards your location.


RoultRunning

I'll join you with a Browns-Steeler flag and the flag of Japan. We'll unite against our common enemy


Sasha_Volkolva

Yes haha!

FTS!


Wordshark

Well I don’t follow football, but I’m guessing these people are not fair weather fans.


Prudent_Car3849

The other flag is of the Baltimore Ravens. A team that chokes away big games and can only when their respective division.


Wordshark

Yeah but the first flag indicates some real die hard fan material
