V bitvě u Nikopole se 25. září 1396 střetli osmanští Turci s křižáckým vojskem tvořeným především Francouzi, Uhry, Chorvaty, Němci, Burgunďany, Bulhary, Benátčany aj. Evropské síly vedené uherským králem Zikmundem Lucemburským, označované někdy jako Nikopolská křížová výprava, v tomto boji drtivě podlehlo početnějšímu turecko-srbskému vojsku osmanského sultána Bajezida I. nedaleko pevnosti Nikopolis na bulharském území. Selhání tohoto podniku ze strany křižáků se přičítá nejednotné taktice jejich společného vojska, zejména účastníkům Francie, tj. zbrklosti francouzských rytířů, kteří provedli předčasný unáhlený výpad proti tureckým silám, bitva se pak už vyvíjela jen v neprospěch křižácké strany vedoucí až ke katastrofálnímu výsledku. Pouze malá část křižáků včetně Zikmunda Lucemburského se zachránila, většina padla na bojišti a část se octla v tureckém zajetí, kde byli poté popraveni. Znamenalo to také konec nadějí na záchranu skomírající Byzantské říše a další balkánské národy, které ani společnými silami nemohly vzdorovat vzrůstající osmanské moci.

Flag of Siluana (Transylvania), around 1350, according to the story of a Spanish Franciscan friar:

From Maxar I went to the Kingdom of Siluana, which they call Septen Castra, and the Greeks call it Horgiml (Transylvania). It is encircled by two great rivers — the Turbo (Dniester) and the Lusim (Dnieper). The king has for his device a green flag with a red scimitar. The people are schismatic Christians.

Heiliges Römisches Reich - Reichssturmfahne vor 1433 (Nimbierter Adler).svg

Anachronistic representation of the royal banner of the 12th(?) or 13th to early 15th centuries.

The banner of this period would be square in shape, and the eagle would not have a halo.

The black eagle in a golden field was the ensign of the German kings (as opposed to the emperor) in the 12th and 13th century, but in the 14th century, it was gradually re-interpreted as representing the empire. An early reference to such a banner as "imperial" is made in an account of the burial of Charles IV (d. 1378), as der schwartz adler des richs in einem guldin veld .
