Andrew Evans. Iceland. Bradt. ციტატა: „Legend states that a red cloth with the white cross simply fell from the sky in the middle of the 13-century Battle of Valdemar, after which the Danes were victorious. As a badge of divine right, Denmark flew its cross in the other Scandinavian countries it ruled and as each nation gained independence, they incorporated the Christian symbol.“ ციტირების თარიღი: 2007-12-31.
