Lika-Senj County - Croatia

Lika-Senj County is the largest county of Croatia and the least populated there are around 45 thousand people live there. Also it's the least prosperous of all Croatian counties, but on the other hand the nature is stunning. The Adriatic coast has some pittoresque views and Pag is the only Croatian island that is shared with an another county, the southern part belongs to Zadar county and maybe is the 5th largest island but it have the longest coastline. The Velebit mountain range goed trough the county from the northwest to the southeast and the seaside has an rocky appearance with cliffs, the other side has dense forest with an lot of fauna. Also it separated the eastern Lika region were the capital Gospić is located from Senj the historical seaside town known since the days of the ancient Greeks. Also in the Lika region are the impressive Plitvice Lakes, this national park has 16 lakes and a lot of cascades and an stunning waterfall which is the highest in Europe. The area contains Europe's rare animals like European brown bear, grey wolf, eagle, Eurasian lynx and European wildcat. Over an million visitors over the world comes to this Unesco heritage site every year. So let's take an look at the flag.

   
The flag has an white background with the light blue stripes and an coat of arms in the center. I didn't find the explanation of the colors and so we continue with the coat of arms. The flower is the Degenia velebitica an endemic species of the Velebit mountain range and is endangered. It is an symbol also of entire Croatia and you can see it on the 50 lipa coin. The tiny flower represented the delicate environment of Croatia. This flag is an good one with an calm looking coat of arms.
