Established in 1994 in Cakovec, in 2004 entered Sabor with a
single non-party (sic!) representative. I have not found the
party documents determing a flag, not have I observed any flag.
The party emblem is shown on <www.hidra.hr>consisting
of a chequy shield topped with initials HDSS all withing a
circular wreath of wheat.

The party web site contains
the Statutes including elaborate description of the flag and some
photos from the general assembly held on 6 May 2006 including the
flag.
The flag is Croatian tricolour of red over white over blue. The
red stripe is defaced with white inscription of the name of the
party, the blue stripe with the party motto Vjera u Boga i
hrvatska sloga (the Trust in God and the Croatian Concord,
if I can translate it more or less correctly). In the middle of
the white stripe is the Croatian chequy shield of 25 chequs
starting with the red one, surrounded with a green circular
wreath of wheat, to the (viewer's) left is the portrait of
Stjepan Radic, and to the left of Ante Starcevic.
The party has no representatives in the parliament, but it seems
to have some local sucess in getting a few places in the
assemblies of cities like Cakovec, Slatina, Velika Gorica.
