That is not the "old" Japanese flag.
That is the navy version.

Most "old" countries I know of had a special navy version of their flag. That includes Sweden with the flag side opposite the pole cut up in 3 splits and the Danish "Dannebrog" with its two splits (only, he he).

re: An example would be if someone displayed the old Japanese flag with the rays coming out of the sun, rather than the modern one without the rays.

Not really. The confederacy was never really a separate country. And the association between the confederate flag and slavery is very strong. Like it or not.
