Using a flag variant

{{flag icon|Russian Empire|1858}} → Russian Empire

Military ensigns

This template includes a naval flag variant that can be used with Template:Naval:

{{naval|Russian Empire}} → File:Naval Ensign of Russia.svg Imperial Russian Navy
{{flag icon|Russian Empire|naval}} → Russian Empire

This template includes an air force ensign flag variant that can be used with Template:Air force:

{{air force|Russian Empire}} → File:Russian Imperial Air force flash.svg Imperial Russian Air Service
{{flag icon|Russian Empire|air force}} → Russian Empire

This template includes an ensign flag variant that can be used with Template:Navy:

{{navy|Russian Empire}} → File:Naval Ensign of Russia.svg Imperial Russian Navy

This nation's army ensign is the same as its national flag, so Template:Army produces the following:
