Presentation of the URB

The URB (Breton Regionalist Union) was founded in 1898 in Morlaix by a group of intellectuals to promote the Breton language, the administrative decentralization and the establishment of a Breton region.

Flag of the URB

The URB initially used the plain ermine; in 1907 a green saltire, of unknown origin and meaning, was added to prevent confusion with the so-called Bourbon flag (white flag semé with golden fleurs-de-lis) then used by the French Legitimist monuarchists.

Fédération régionaliste de Bretagne

Flag of the FRB, two successive versions - Images by Ivan Sache, 6 January 1999

The FRB (Regionalist Federation of Brittany) was founded by J. Cholleau and Y. Le Diberder as a splinter of the URB. They added economical demands to the program of the URB.
The original flag of the FRB, first documented in January 1913 in the review Brittia and combining the black cross and the ermine, was white with a black, centered cross voided throughout and seven ermine spots (4+3) placed in canton.
To prevent confusion with the German Reichskriegsflagge, the cross was subsequently changed to a black, centered voided cross.
