The design draws directly from the provincial coat of arms, descended from the historic County of Holland. The modern flag was passed by the States of South Holland on 24 October 1985 and became official on 1 January 1986, which makes this a flag with a long lineage and a recent formal life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTurned in Your Hands\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA mug is a object you hold close and turn slowly, so the lion and the province outline reveal themselves in pieces as the cup rotates.
