INFORMATION ABOUT FLAG
According to the history Michael VIII Paleologue adopted this symbol
after he had reconquered Constantinople from the Crusaders in 1261. It
represented looking towards the East and
theWest .
The double-headed eagle had in the two centuries of Paleologue rule
become identified not just with the dynasty but with the Empire itself and,
more generally, with institutions and cultural ideas outside the Byzantine
Empire that still remained centered on Constantinople.
