fixed.raised.carried.during.
A flag is fixed / held/ to a long stick.
I think the correct word is ' fixed , but can it collocate with" to" I've always seen " fix on.?
2 in China flags were raised/ pulled/ rolled in cities after an invasion.the correct one is " raised, isn't it?
Flags were carried/driven on elephants.I guess " carried is correct here, but shouldn't " carry be used for heavyweights only?
During / around/ after the past 100 years, the use of flavs has increased.
Is during correct here?
Thanks

"Flags were carried/driven on elephants.I guess " carried is correct here, but shouldn't " carry be used for heavyweights only?" No "carry/carried" is not used only for heavy weights.

All your answers are correct.
A flag is fixed to a long stick. In this sentence, you could also say that it is fixed on a long stick. Fixed to/fixed on can often be used interchangeably.
In China, flags were raised in cities after an invasion.
Flags were carried on elephants. This is correct, but it would sound much better if it read: Flags were carried by elephants. And, to answer your question, "carry" refers to anything we can hold in our hands or pick up and take with us, so it does not always refer to heavy objects. A lightweight object can also be carried.
During the past 100 years the use of flags has increased.
