Original Note:
This claim is incorrect. The flag depicts a yellow lion on blue field (no crowns) which is the coat of arms of the Kingdom of Galicia–Volhynia (a.k.a Kingdom of Ruthenia). This symbology inspired also the coat of arms of Ukraine, of Lviv Oblast and others. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ruthenian_lion https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kingdom_of_Galicia%E2%80%93Volhynia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coat_of_arms_of_Ukraine
