The National symbols of Verraland are the symbols used to represent the Republic of Verraland. These symbols, encompassing the national flag, the coat of arms, the national anthem, and other culturally significant representations, serve as powerful catalysts of unity and pride for the citizens of Verraland. Together, these symbols play a pivotal role in fostering national identity and lore, instilling a sense of civic virtue, and preserving the metahistorical legacy of Verraland.

Flag

The flag of Verraland is a vertical bicolor of yellow-tan and white, with a scarlet octagram in the center. Symbolically, the flag is derived from the coat of arms of Florentine explorer Giovanni da Verrazzano, who is credited with discovering the region that is now Verraland. The yellow-tan and white colors symbolize hope and renewal, while the scarlet octagram represents courage, strength, and the pioneering spirit of exploration. This connection to Verrazzano underscores the nation's rich heritage and the enduring legacy of exploration and discovery that continues to shape Verraland's identity today.

The octagram also duly serves as a compass. The compass refers the ancient Platonic metaphor in The Republic, Book VI, to the ship of state, referencing the governance of a city-state to the command of a vessel. The Republic, culturally a significant piece of literature from ancient Greece, has had a profound influence on the political theory of Verraland.
