Is it just me or was the original Russian Empire flag ugly as hell
It wasn't even that common, only used between 1858-1896, the tsarist flag was the russian tricolor from 1696-1858 and 1896-1920: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Russian_flags#Historical_flags_of_Russia
Which makes this even stranger
Most empire flags look terrible.
All tricolor shit is awful and lazy. For people such invested into nationalism they could put minimal effort to actually have some inspiring national symbol but no, it's either three stripes or some incredibly convoluted heraldry, nothing in between.
