De vlag van Munster (uit Ierland) bestaat uit een blauw veld met daarop drie gouden kronen. Hoewel Munster eens uit drie koninkrijken bestond , verwijzen de kronen waarschijnlijk naar de Wijzen uit het oosten. rdf:langString

The coat of arms of Munster consists of three gold crowns on a blue field. Similar crowns were included on the arms of Ireland before being superseded by the golden harp in the 16th century. The meaning of the three crowns is not certain, but one possibility is that they may represent three of the medieval Hiberno-Norman lordships in Munster; the O'Briens (Thomond), the Butlers (Ormond) and the Fitzgeralds (Desmond). Other sources suggest that the arms (dark blue, three antique crowns Or) are derived from the short-lived dukedom of Ireland created for Robert de Vere in 1386. Further sources suggest that the crown motif dates to the earlier Kingdom of Munster, based on a thirteenth-century crozier head which was decorated with a crown on a blue enamel surface and found near the Rock of Cash rdf:langString
La bandiera del Munster consiste in tre corone dorate su sfondo blu (con gradazione poco definita, che varia dal blu scuro all'azzurro scuro, passando per il blu classico). Le tre corone costituivano il principale stemma dell'Irlanda, prima di essere soppiantate dall'arpa celtica nel XVI secolo. Non è molto chiaro a cosa rimandino le corone, anche se una possibile spiegazione consiste nel ritenere che esse rappresentino i tre domini inglesi sul Munster nel Medioevo: gli O'Brien (Thomond), i Butler (Ormond) e i Fitzgerald (Desmond). rdf:langString

The crowns are usually depicted as "antique" or "eastern": a gold rim with eight sharp, triangular rays, of which five are seen.

Se il rimando delle corone è ai tre domini inglesi sull'isola, il colore blu si riferisce alla mitologia e in particolare a , una donna bellissima vestita di blu, personificazione del potere temporale sul territorio del Munster.
