The Hessian Flag

This design was adapted from the flag of the German Republic of Hesse. "Hessians" or metalheads were called so by their history teachers, who knew the Revolutionary War-era mercenaries "Hessians," who were from Hesse, were famous for their long hair and manic fighting style, which made them feared troops to encounter.

Hessians can proudly fly this flag on the internet for now.
