MicroFlag was founded on 26 May 2014 by Yaroslav Mar, a Russian national and the President of Lostisland, as a response to the problem that many micronationalists faced: the inability to obtain quality custom flags for an affordable price. MicroFlag works as an intermediary between the customer and Russian flag typographies which offer competitive prices and allow us to sell flags at a much lower cost than European or American manufacturers.

Even though MicroFlag started largely as an experiment, it quickly rose into prominence and earned reputation as a reliable partner for all micronational flag needs and primary choice for dozens of micronations seeking to have a flag made, as well as for local councils, artists, businessmen and military and vexillology enthusiasts.

MicroFlag is the supplier of flags of some of the world’s largest micronations, including Austenasia, Flandrensis, Dracul, Ladonia, and Pavlov, among others, in addition to supplying all the insignia for Lostisland. Since 2014 MicroFlag products have been present on all the major micronational summits, including MicroCon 2015, MicroCon 2017,  MicroCon 2019, and 2019 GUM Birmingham Summit.
