The historical town of Mikulov, with 7787 inhabitants, in southeast
Moravia, near Austrian boundary (German name: Nikolsburg) has a "Cape
Verde-like" flag with five horizontal stripes, blue, white, red, white,
and blue (3:1:1:1:3), i.e. with colors derived from the town's Coat of Arms (blue
shield with silver-red castle and town). The flag has been officially granted
in 1999 (May 25). I thought that the top right image shows the Belarus-like
flag (and blue sky) until I discovered the decree

website.
