Decision for a new national flag, taken on 14 February 1796 by the States-General of the United Netherlands. This decision stipulated that the national flag had red-white-blue horizontal lanes. For only the Batavian navy there was an addition, a so-called Jack of Jeck: A rectangular white surface, in which a Dutch virgin with shield, spear and freedom hat, next to a half-lying Dutch lion. It was also determined how the new pennant and the geus should look like.
