After a quick ceremonial parliamentary session, MonoTown formally adopted “The Bi-Color” as its national flag. Having been used for years informally, with variations formally adopted by the armed forces, parliament, and other official government bodies, the Bi-Color was officially approved by unanimous vote on the back of an extensive referendum that passed with more than 90% public approval.

The flag is symbolic of the city’s storied history – with a nod given towards the traditional divers flag used to warn other boats of submerged diving activity. In the years leading up the The Great Reckoning, MonoTowners began ironically flying the Divers Flag to (depending on your beliefs) either mock the predictions of climate change, or give warning to it.
Instead of a horizontal stripe, the white stripe down the middle became popular during the aftermath of the construction of The Seawall as a pure barrier holding back the seas, and it eventually it came to symbolize the spirit of equality that the city strives for with all citizens.

For years, MonoTown was proud of the anachronistic nature of being the only recognized international state that didn’t have an official flag (rather, many unofficial versions) but with the arrival of MonoTown FC and the potential for competition in international football events, the city decided to formalize its colors in order to avoid potential sanctions by FIFA.
Despite its simplicity, the flag remains packed with symbolism. The Seawall, a nod to the underwater nature of the metropolis, a message of equality, but also the red paying homage to the blood of lives lost as the city was reborn are all important aspects of the city’s heritage. Ultimately, most MonoTowners believe the flag embodies a spirit of hope in the face of great change and difficulty, and embrace the motto of the Last Coastal LEGO city:
There is always a choice.
