Sorry, I didn’t get the joke. Thank your for your explanation.
The battle flag of East Frisia, a German region, supposedly shows a white eagle on a white background.

At the risk of over-explaining -
I think the other commenter was (possibly) kidding about it being a white flag, because over here (US) the only place most of us have seen a white flag used to surrender is in cartoons and such for the most part. (I think this is probably true elsewhere today also.)
I was surprised when I learned they really had used a white flag to surrender at Appomattox and (out of disdain for the confederates) I find it super amusing that the white flag they used was literally a dishtowel they had on hand.
I thought the confederate battle flag was all white.
Not sure if that was a joke, but FYI the final flag of the confederacy was not only literally a white flag, it was a dishtowel. 😂 🤣

According to Wikipedia, this is the correct flag. However, some had square shape.
That link showed me how surprisingly progressive the confederacy was. Who knew Mississippi had an army of the Trans.
Edit. Cute flag too.
