Symbols of our nation

Three pillars: The Judiciary, The Congress, The Royal Family

Peace♦Progress♦Education♦Equality

The National Seal of The Principality of Hains consists of three pillars which represent the three supporting institutions of the nation: The Judiciary, The Congress, and The Royal Family.  Upon the capitals of these pillars are written the words: Peace, Progress, Education, and Equality.  These are the four main values and goals of our nation. 

We desire to live at peace with all mankind.  We are dedicated to the progress and development of our nation, its institutions, and our fellow citizens.  We hope to educate ourselves and everyone involved in this great experiment in the functions of government, economics, commerce, sovereignty, and personal freedom.  Equality represents our earnest desire to see all people regardless of gender, race, ethnicity, sexual orientations, or any other perceived difference treated with dignity and respect.

Equality before the law.

✫Justice ✫Equality ✫Mercy

The Seal of The Principality of Hains contains the Royal Family Crest of Haynes upon an equilateral triangle which represents equality before the law. 

The green color of the triangle is emblematic of the wisdom which all servants of the principality aspire to obtain.  While the three stars symbolize the three guiding principles that our citizens should expect before the law of justice, equality and mercy.

These are set upon a background of blue representing imagination, inspiration, freedom, and the sky of the physical territory of The Principality of Hains.

The Flag of The Principality of Hains

Red- Courage & Vitality
Blue- Truth & Equality
Green- Wisdom & Prosperity

The flag of The Principality of Hains is a tri-color banner of red, blue and green whose stripes are running in a new direction emblematical of the separate course we have chosen to follow.

Red represents the courage and vitality of the First Royal Family who braved a crossing of the Pacific Ocean in 1533, and later traversed the Appalachian Mountains to establish our homeland in the former Indian Territory.

Blue represents their pursuit of truth and enlightenment in their endeavor to become a more equitable society.

Green represents the prosperity achieved through the collective efforts of all the secret princes and their inhabitants; and, as green is a due admixture of red and blue represents the wisdom acquired from a courageous pursuit of the truth; wisdom in interacting with other people and in stewardship of our environment.

Crowned Democracy

The Royal Family of Haynes⫼The Principality of Hains

The Royal Standard consists of the flag of The Principality of Hains combined with the Coat of Arms of the House of Haynes and represents the unification of the Royal Family with Hains citizens, as well as our unique form of government: The Crowned Democracy. 

A Crowned Democracy marries the ideals of liberty and dignity espoused by our democratic government and the stability offered by the Royal Family. 

The Royal Standard represents the Reigning Prince as head of government and is used to signal his presence in a specific location.  The Royal Standard follows the Reigning Prince and flies outside of every building that he visits.

The Crown Jewels of The House of Hains

The Royal Silver Crown

The Royal Crown is made of silver, which alludes to purity and strength, and is the basis of our economy.  It is crafted with ten fleur-de-lis.  The fleur-de-lis represents perfection, light and life.  This symbolizes our desire for perfect enlightenment and the quality of life that accompanies those who strive for it.  The number ten represents destiny and the power of a collection of self-reliant individuals.  The eleventh fleur-de-lis in the center represents the Prince of Hains as chief among his people.


Silver Plated Scepter

Like most of the Royal Jewels, The Royal Scepter is plated in silver.  This symbolizes the pure desire, on the part of the prince, to guide the people of Hains towards a future of greater inclusion, equality and purpose.  The scepter also represents the authority and sovereignty of the prince and his principality.


The Royal Robe

The Royal Robe represents the mantle of authority which rests with the Prince.  The red exterior is emblematical of the Prince’s love for the citizens and his courage in having undertaken such a weighty title.  Finally, the white interior to the purity of his motives in all his actions and dealings, not only with those of Hains, but also with all humanity.


The Sword signifies the Prince’s power, authority, and strength in protecting his principality, as well as his courage and constancy in the performance of his duties as the sovereign of the realm.  It’s ivory handle represents the gravity of the Prince’s role as the principality’s defender, it’s golden blade represents the importance of the prince’s moral character and spirituality, and the silver scabbard alludes to the silver standard that surrounds and protects the economic vitality of the principality.
