French Fleur-De-Lis (Blue)
AKA "Lilly Banner"
This flag was used from 1400 until 1590. The most important flag
carried by explorers and settlers was most likely the royal flag,
since this was a symbol of the authority of the king in the new lands.
In the early sixteenth century the French royal flag was blue with
three gold fleurs-de-lis representing directly the shield in the royal
French coat of arms. It is not likely that the French explorers Verrazano
or Cartier actually raised this flag on land. At the time the practice
of placing a permanent marker was preferred. Fleur-de-lis translates
to "Flower of the Lily".
