How to make the flag of Russia as a banner in Minecraft

The flag of the Russian Federation (Russian: Флаг Российской Федерации, tr. Flag Rossiskoy Federatsii) is a tricolour flag consisting of three equal horizontal fields: white on the top, blue in the middle, and red on the bottom. The flag was first used as an ensign for Russian merchant ships in 1696.

There are only a few steps to make it in to a banner in Minecraft. After that you can put it on an item frame and even on a shield.

You need:

• A Loom (2x string and 2x planks)
• Min 2x White Banners and 2x Blue Banners
• 2x Blue Dye
• 4x Red Dye
• 2x White Dye
• 2x Shield (Java edition only)

How to make it:

• Make a loom. Put two strings and two planks together in the crafting table.
• Make white banners. Put six white wool above a centered stick in the crafting table to make a white banner. Do the same for the blue wool to get blue banners.
• Bring the banners over to the loom.

Alternative 1 white banners

1. Add red dye and pick the Pale Sinister design. Do it twice.
2. Add blue dye. Pick the Pale design. Do that twice as well.

Alternative 2 blue banners

1. Add white dye and pick the Chief design. Do that twice.
2. Add red dye and pick the Base design. Do that twice as well.

That’s the finished Russian flag as a banner all done! So now we want to put the Russian banner on our shield, but first we want a couple more of these banners so we can decorate the village with them.

• Put the finished Russian banner in the crafting table. Add more white (or blue) banners next to it. Thats how you copy or duplicate the banners.
• Now put one of these Russian banners next to a shield in the crafting table and now you have a Russian shield! This only works in Java edition however! At least for now.
