A bit of trivia about the four flags shown on the last page. From top to bottom:
[ol][li]La Pucelle de Orleans probably refers to Joan of Arc, although the symbol on this flag does not appear to be her coat of arms or banner.[/li]
[li]The makoto flag belongs to the Shinsengumi[/li]
[li]The double headed eagle represents the Holy Roman Empire[/li]
[li]The fleur-de-lis is usually associated with the French nobility[/li][/ol]
