Northern Liech State

The flag of Northern Liech State is plain yellow with the state emblem, a brown petrol tower and a green laurel wreath, in the centre (as seen here).

The flag in common use by the Governor had a white fringe. It appears the state emblem is based on the Unity State logo, which Northern Liech state was separated from by presidential decree on 2 October 2015. The state symbols fell out of use when the presidential decree was revoked and then disestablished the state on 22 February 2020.

Emblem

The emblem was likely adopted in 2016 or 2017. It depicts a red-outlined ribbon reading Northern Liech State. Above this is a black oil derrick for the industry here; it is surrounded by two branches of prosperity. Above the derrick is a flame.
