- Flags_and_arms_of_cantons_of_Switzerland abstract "Each of the 26 modern cantons of Switzerland has an official flag and a coat of arms.The history of development of these designs spans the 13th to the 20th centuries.Historically, the number of cantons was: eight from 1352 to 1481, see Eight Cantons thirteen from 1513 to 1798, see Thirteen Cantons twenty during the time of the Helvetic Republic, from 1798 to 1803, without official flags or coats of arms twenty-two from 1848 to 1978, including three cantons divided into two half-cantons each twenty-three from 1979 to 1999, due to the secession of the canton of Jura from Bern.Nidwalden and Obwalden form traditional subdivisions of Unterwalden. Basel-Stadt and Basel-Landschaft, as well as Appenzell Inner- and Ausserrhoden, are half cantons, resulting from the division of Basel and Appenzell, respectively.The Swiss Federal Constitution of 1999 abandoned the use of the term \"half-canton\" as an official designation, so that the official number of cantons became 26 - the former half-cantons being now referred to as \"cantons with half a cantonal vote\" officially, even though they are still commonly referred to as\" half-cantons\".With the exception of Lucerne, Schwyz and Ticino, the cantonal flags are simply transposed versions of the cantonal coats of arms. In case of Lucerne and Ticino, whose flags consist of fields of different colours divided per fess (horizontally), the coats of arms are of the same colours divided per pale (vertically). The coat of arms of Schwyz has the cross moved from the (hoist) canton to the sinister canton with respect to the flag.Of the 22 cantonal coats of arms as they stood with the creation of Switzerland as a federal state in 1848, six are simple bicolor designs.Vaud also has a bicolor, but also (against heraldic tradition) an added inscription.The remaining 15 flags include heraldic designs, as follows:The Swiss cross in two flags, for Schwyz on solid red, and for Neuchâtel in the corner of the \"revolutionary\" tricolour)seven flags with heraldic animals:the bear for Bern and for Appenzellthe bull for Urithe ram for Schaffhausenthe ibex for Graubünden (at the time only one of three coats of arms shown side by side for the Three Leagues)the eagle for Genevatwo lions for Thurgauthe bishop's crozier or Baslerstab for Basel and Jurathe image of a pilgrim (Saint Fridolin) for Glarusa key for Unterwalden and for Genevathe fasces for St. Gallenstars for Valais and Aargau, the latter with additional wavy lines representing riversDistinctively, Swiss cantons use square flags.".
