Standards without personal emblem

Presidents Jacques Chirac, Nicolas Sarkozy, François Hollande and Emmanuel Macron did not add any personal emblem to the standard's "template". Their flag at sea is square with three blue-white-red stripes, and the optical proportions. The presidential car flag is in proportion 7:8 with a golden fringe (not shown here).
