Flag of the province of Friesland

The official flag of Friesland consists of four blue and three white diagonal stripes; in the white stripes there are a total of seven red pompeblêden.

The seven red pompeblêden refer to the medieval Frisian 'zeelanden': independent regions along the coast from Alkmaar to the Weser, which joined together in a defensive alliance against the Normans. There have never been exactly seven of these administrative units, the number seven probably has the connotation 'many'
