How to make the flag of Vatican City in Minecraft

The flag of Vatican City was adopted on 7 June 1929, the year Pope Pius XI signed the Lateran Treaty with Italy, creating a new independent state governed by the Holy See. The Vatican City flag is modeled on the 1808 yellow and white flag of the earlier Papal States, to which a papal tiara and keys were later added. The Vatican (and the Holy See) also refers to it, interchangeably, as the flag of the Holy See. (Source: Wikipedia)

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 1x white banner (six white wool + one stick)
  • Min 1x Light Grey Dye
  • Min 1 x White Dye
  • Thing Banner Pattern or Creeper Charge Banner Pattern
  • Min 2x Yellow Dye Min 1x Shield (for Java edition only)

How to make it:

  • Make a loom. Put two strings and two planks together in the crafting table.
  • Make white banners using 1 stick and six white wool in the crafting table.

Alternative 1

  • Bring the banner and the Thing Pattern into the loom. Add Light Grey dye.
  • Add white dye and pick the Per Fess Inverted design.
  • Add yellow dye and pick the Per Pale design. Do this twice.

Alternative 2:

  • Bring the banner and the Creeper Charge into the loom. Add Light Grey dye.
  • Add white dye. Pick the Per Fess Inverted design.
  • Add yellow dye. Pick the Per Pale design. Do that twice.

That’s the finished Vatican City flag as a banner all done! So now we want to put the Holy See 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 Holy See banner in the crafting table. Add more white banners next to it. That’s how you copy or duplicate the banners.
  • Now put one of these Vatican City banners next to a shield in the crafting table and now you have a Vatican City shield! This only works in Java edition however! At least for now.
