The graceful flag of Nova Scotia was the first flag in the overseas Commonwealth to be authorized by Royal Charter. It is derived from the ancient Arms granted in 1625 by King Charles I. In response to a petition of the province in 1929, a Royal Warrant of King George V revoked the modern Arms that had been put in place with Confederation. The Ancient and Honourable Arms were restored to be “borne for the said Province of Nova Scotia upon Seals, Shields, Banners or otherwise according to the Laws of Arms.” The flag consists of Arms, with the cross of Saint Andrew extended in a rectangle three-quarters as wide as its length.
