Kyawcenni Sun
The national sun of Kyaw Cen (Kyawcenni Sun) is usually being represented by a white circle with eight white triangles around it.
History
The first national banner used by Marcy dates back to approximately November 2023, when they created a national banner design inspired by the trans flag to represent early Marcyland. It was constructed as a light blue banner with a pink regular and inverted chevron and a white roundel.
The first flag of the Kingdom of Kyaw Cen, designed in December 2023, consisted of a white circle on a blue sky above a white and a magenta stripe. Contrary to the current flag, the white circle has actually represented the moon, not the sun. But because the Quing could not find a way to recreate this flag as a Minecraft banner, they later opted for a different, recreatable design in early 2024, which featured a white sun, and switched magenta and white for a contrast between the sun and the stripes.

Other flags and banners
The Kyawcenni People's Front uses red and black in their banner instead of magenta and white. This symbolizes their opposition to the interŋationally recognized government and instantly makes it clear that they're the bad guys.
