- Often called bloody flags or blood flags (among other names, see ), pattern free red flags was the traditional nautical symbol in European waters prior to the invention of flag signal codes to signify an intention to give battle and that ‘no quarter would be given’, indicating that surrender would not be accepted and all prisoners killed, but also vice versa, meaning that the one flying the flag would fight to the last man (defiance to the death). Such flags were traditionally plain but examples with motifs also existed, such as skull and crossbones on some pirate examples (see Jolly Roger). The origin of bloody flags is unknown, but deep red coloring is strongly associated with the color of blood and thus symbolises suffering and combat. Historical sources mentions bloody flags being used by Normans as early as the 13th century, but red-painted shields were used similarly by seafaring Norse warriors in previous centuries. Since the late 18th century, the bloody flag has been transformed into the political flag for revolution (see Red flag (politics)). (en)
- Een bloedvlag of aanvalsvlag was oorspronkelijk een rode vlag die werd gehesen als sein voor bepaalde tactische handelingen. Het is onzeker dat de rode kleur vanwege haar zichtbaarheid werd gebruikt, of omdat de kleur in verband staat aan de kleur van het bloed als teken van felle strijd. (nl)
- Uma bandeira de sangue (em neerlandês: bloedvlag) ou bandeira de ataque era originalmente uma bandeira vermelha hasteada como um sinal para certas ações táticas em navios holandeses. Não se tem certeza se a cor vermelha foi usada por causa de sua visibilidade, ou porque a cor está relacionada à cor do sangue como um sinal de luta feroz. (pt)
