Annam, French Protectorate

The Empire of Annam was under French protection since 1886. I've seen an old state flag, that was yellow with two "eastern" (Chinese or Annamite) written-characters in black. After 1886 the yellow flag included the French tricolor in the canton. The national flag was three horizontal strips yellow, red, and yellow.

A triangular flamuled pennant with the lower edge ortogonal to the hoist, yellow with red orle (inner bordure) with the dragon emblem covering the triangular field. Above the pennant is a yellow and red bicolour long pennant.

Possible alternate version

[Annam - Viet Nam, Protectorate]
image by Jaume Ollé

A yellow flag with the French tricolour in the canton. as with some other French colonial flags of the period, the tricolour height is equal to 1/3 of the hoist.

The 1926 Flaggenbuch [d9e26] shows the same flag captioned National Flag. Jaume gives this flag in square format with square Tricolour 1/2 the hoist high, which might have been a variant.

Depiction of the "Dragon flag of Annam"
[Annam - Viet Nam]
image by Jaume Ollé

A yellow-red-yellow horizontal trband flag with the central stripe being of the double with then each of the yellow stripes.

Jaume shows it in ratio 2:3, but I guess it may be wandered if the ratio was established at all. Is this flag kind of origin of the latter (South) Vietnamese flag with three red stripes?
