Flag of the Leth Confederacy
Flag of the Leth Confederacy by @Thorvald (El Thorvaldo)

A non-canonical flag for KaiserElectric's Leth Confederacy, created for an Easter egg path in the badly-neglected IOT XIV Hearts of Iron IV mod. The Leth were 'Lec's country in Multipolarity IV, mutant byproducts of reckless genetic testing and one of only two surviving species from the ensuing genocidal cover-up. One of the principal American player states, its liberal cosmopolitanism made it a bitter rival to Sonereal's slave state and the jingoistic New America, and the Leth endured a brief war with the Confederate States of America. Originally a race of fox people, 'Lec would later reuse them in other settings as cats; notably, President Albrecht cameoes in the "Holy Neko Imperium" in late-stage IdIOT.

'Lec never created a flag for the Leth, and this design is entirely my own inspiration. The original Leth were based in the American Southwest, although the capital was ambiguous; given Sone's antipathy to him in XIV, and our conspiracy to dismantle the Pan-American Union, it seemed a poetic irony to make a shout-out to one of his very first games that actually found traction. Also, y'know, foxes...

Based on the flag of California; fox silhouette by Natasha Sinegina, published under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license.
