The flag recently adopted by the region of WestSweden (formed by Halland, Alvsborg, Skaraborg, Vaermland and Goetteborg, and Bohus).

The flag is yellow with a white Scandinavian cross fimbrated in blue, and derives apparently from the the flag from Goetaland (not to confuse with the island of Gotland), that it is yellow with a Scandinavian cross in blue, that is to say inside out that the national flag. The ratio is identical of the national flag 5:8.
