    Flag of the Socialist Federation of Latin Africa: Blue represents the sky and planning for the future. Green represents the earth and ecosystem. Black represents humanity and unity between cultures. The points of the stars add up to thirty, the number of federal states. The emblem is that of...

    AHC: Phoenecian rather than Greek dominated coast of Asia Minor and Cyprus

    Wasn't Ionia one of the oldest areas of Greek settlement; going back to the Bronze Age? And weren't the Phoenician cities under Egyptian or Hittite control during these times early enough for the region to have been first colonized by them? Cyprus could be more doable, but the kingdom known to...

    Was gender equality a historical fluke?

    I am appalled, disgusted, and not surprised that a thread about the development of patriarchy immediately became a group of men having what basically amounts to an argument over whether women have orgasms. It's the same thing every time.

    Flag of the Federal Republic of China. 9 stripes of alternating yellow and vermilion represent the traditional 9 provinces. The four yellow stripes represent the Zhu, Yangzi, Huai, and Yellow rivers. The five vermilion stripes represent the Han, Manchu, Mongol, Koreans, and Miao. The yellow sun...

    These are all amazing. I especially love Rapta. Reminds me of Angola.

    Here's something inspired by the CS flags above: This one uses the red star-field as canton, with seven stripes on the fly in white and grey. Grey invokes the iconic uniforms of CS officers as well as the fury of the thunderstorm, contrasted as war against white as peace. Seven representing the...

    I still like 2. I prefer the yellow suns, which look fine on both red and blue. I also like the boldness of the huge pentagonal charge of blue in the center. I also like the one flag with the 9 stripes representing (I assume) the traditional nine provinces. If the white stripes and sun were...

    Flag of the US State of Chippewa, created in 1971 after the OTL campaign of a group of UP senators led by Dominic Jacobetti succeeded in obtaining the consent of the Michigan legislature to hold a statehood referendum in the upper peninsula. After the narrow passage of the referendum, the...

    This is awesome. I'm working on a flag right now of an Upper Peninsula spun off into the State of Chippewa. We'd have local control over our lumber, iron, copper, shipping, and fishing industries as well as control over the Soo Locks. And local control in the UP means to a great degree control...

    This is awesome. I love the Scots azure and the Irish navy used at the same time rather than awkwardly combined into a single hue that fits neither. I think it's cool to use multiple versions of one color or multiple hues that are commonly regarded as the same color but really act quite...

    Why are heraldic animals so weird/silly/derpy looking?

    All great points! I didn't really mean this to be a serious critique of heraldry. Although, I do think Euro heraldry has a certain culture-hegemony in certain sectors of design & aesthetics. I get that they're heavily stylized and were for a time necessarily produced by people with little...

    Why are heraldic animals so weird/silly/derpy looking?

    There are some things I like about Euro heraldry, but some things I really don't get. Like, did someone think it would be intimidating or something? To have someone who has clearly never seen a lion paint on your shield a blue, spaghettified, reptilian looking "lion" with its purple tongue...

    I find it interesting to think about how, at the founding of the Ming in 1368, it's possible that there were a few centenarians in China still alive who remembered the last days of Southern Song.
