Flag of Petrovec

The flag of Petrovec (Macedonian Ministry of Local Self-Government website,page no longer online), is red with the municipal emblem in canton.
The emblem is made of a red map of the municipality placed on a blue disk bordered with 16 yellow stars (probably representing the 16 villages forming the municipality) and two tobacco leaves placed at 3, 6, 9 and 12 o'clock. The name of the municipality is written in blue Cyrillic letters on a yellow scroll placed below the emblem.

The municipal website shows a rotated version of the horizontal flag, with the emblem awkwardly placed in the upper right corner, and itself not rotated towards the horizontal.
