List of Chinese flags

This is a list of flags of entities named "China".

As of 18 November 1997, the Chinese Government banned localities from making and using local flags and emblems. Despite this law, some cities have adopted their own flag that often includes their local emblem as shown below.

In July 1949, a contest was announced for a national flag for the newly founded People's Republic of China. From a total of about 3,000 proposed designs, 38 finalists were chosen. In September, the current flag, submitted by Zeng Liansong, was officially adopted.
