The Thron, Þ Flag



The Thorn Flag is white, orange, and black.  There are three capital Þs since there are four digits in the ASCII code for this letter.   The code is 0-2-2-2.  This is fitting because Thorn reminds us so much of Thor, which gives us an impression of a lighting bolt.

Lower case Thorn has four different digits with its ASCII code which is 0-2-5-4.  The numbers are coded the colours according to the order of the rainbow.  Orange is 2 because it is the 2nd colour, cyan is the 5th colour, green is the 4th colour and white represents zero.

Oddly the lower case Thorn looks like it should be the upper case Thron?  It was as if the letter P and b had a baby.
