Prince Otto or Prince Otto: A Romance is an 1885 novel by
Robert Louis Stevenson
Eugene Ipavec 02 Jul 2010
The novel is set in the principality of Grunewald, «an infinitesimal member of the German Empire;» from the story’s context it would appear to take place sometime between 1848 and 1870. The microstate has a flag, mentioned two or three times but described in no greater detail than «yellow».
the Flag Tower climbed, stage after stage, into the blue; and high over all, among the building daws, the yellow flag wavered in the wind.
and, beyond that, upon the palace roof, and the yellow banner flying in the blue.Eugene Ipavec 02 Jul 2010
