Australia & New Zealand are two of the most distant nations in the world. It is only a coincidence that their flags look a like as purported by some. They are two distinct nations separated by cultural eons.
Communication between the two races, the Aussie and Kiwi is difficult. An Aussie has more in common with a Chinese person than a Kiwi. Likewise, a person from New Zealand has much more in common with the average man or woman from Saudi Arabia, than she or he does with a person from Australia.
How in the world can anyone confuse their people, languages, and accents as the same? You need to get your hearing checked.
Australia and New Zealand basically have NOTHING in common by culture, dress, hobbies, and religious beliefs. If you put the two in the room together, they will have great difficulties communicating with each other, and violence is guaranteed to erupt.
Their flags are totally different, anyone who confuses one for the other must have her eyes examined, they are totally different in all aspects.
If you were to race mix these ancient and separated nations with each other, the offspring will not be able to communicate with the parents.
Likewise, this is not Providence. Providence only happened in the Bible and that is it, anyone who says otherwise it an idiot and being led by delusions.
As flags are created in the wake of Providence.....
Guam and Sin Eustatius are tiny islands connected by a special type of synchronicity. It should instantly cause a double take. For this was no small accident.
These flags represent the beginning and ultimate ascendency of the United States, upon the World Stage.
Both isles were at one time colonized by Spain. From the Far West, the UK attempted to take over Sint Eustatius during the War of America's Genesis in 1776; during the WWII the Japanese from the Far East attempted to take over Guam, during America's ascendency, during the War of Endless Tears.
The first love, first win, and first place are deeply remembered. And the first place/nation to salute the US flag occurred here, at Sint Eustatius. The Dutch ruled the isle basically as a free trading port that allowed the infant American Republic to arm itself, a generation before the 2nd Amendment was twinkle in a Virginian's eye.
Thus the first sacred, tip of the hat or bow of the flag, was first given here to the first of first flags of the American Republic three months after the Declaration of Independence on November 16, 1776. For the first time, another nation acknowledged and affirmed the presence of the United States.
Today, English is the dominant language for these distant isles, permanently stuck in a distant, outer edge orbit of the United States. US money is the key currency for both places. Providentially, it was a large Jewish community of Sint Eustatius that helped the fledgling republic attain precious weapons.
Ergo in honor of that Jewish community, a Rabbi was chosen to hold the modern flag of Sint Eustatius. After the American Revolution, the Dutch would retained dominion over this island, with help from the French, and this isle still retains its outer, loose, link to Holland. The flag holder of Guam in a native Guamanian. And as Guam is loosely tied to the US, in the same manner the Sint Eustatius is tied to the Netherlands.
The airport of Sint Eustatius is named after an American President, FDR just as many towns and school in Guam get their namesake from US presidents. From one edge of the earth unto the other, they are flags for a people at America's Political Lagrange Points; L4 & L5. Or rather, they are American Trojan Asteroids.
From the Atlantic to the Pacific, these islands carry the karmic memory of America's start in 1776 and crowning glory and rise as the world leading naval power in 1945. Far from the US, yet so vitally a part of America's history.
Their framed flags of red, ring with a soulful Providence of colourful concord.
Even if they change the flags, this connection has been established. The flag of Fiji almost changed until they got their first GOLD medal in 2016 for men's rugby.
Usually Australia & New Zealand are compared to as being too similar, but it also happens with Fiji & Tuvalu! The Big Bang Theory show mentioned Australia's flag mixupery, but totally ignored Fiji & Tuvalu's mixupery, due to Western cultural bias.
Leigh Wetherall was able to give a summary of the events of 27th International Congress of Vexillology, hosted in Imperial College 2017. It was on a Wednesday, when my Prime Meridian Flag design was hoisted upon the flag pole at the Greenwich Observatory. Usually this flag pole only every flies the British flag.
As a student and teacher of science, the Greenwich Observatory is akin to Holy Ground. It was here that observations of the sky enabled the public to better appreciate science.
It was here that observations allowed mankind to predict the path of an eclipse in 1714 and later, the return of a mysterious comet in 1742, which would from then on, be called Halley's Comet. These Proclamations/Predictions were public demonstrations that enchanted the masses and forced them to become aware of science: a new type of imagination that is yoked to the austere logic of math and precise observation.
The precise mathematical/scientific prediction in 1714 gave the public an easy to understand and observe scientific analysis. It was not by astrology or magical thinking, but rather a revelation from science that foretold the path of an eclipse in 1714.
Later yet, this new type of procedural imagination foretold the return of a comet, a comet tied to William the Conqueror in 1066. This foretelling in 1742 would solidify the value of science. No longer would it be considered nonsensical alchemy.
Before these predictions, much of the public had no idea what science was! Thus the work done at the Greenwich Observatory became a turning point for the public's understanding of science. It would further fuel the Enlightenment, causing many to forsake the irrational path of superstition. Since before hand, comets and eclipses were solely regarded as portents and omens, only to be understood by the Gods and fortune tellers.
Thus, Edmund Haley's predictions were something like the movie Star Trek Generations (1994). Spoiler alert... one of the plot lines in this movie is when humans break a certain technological barrier, they get attention of Aliens. Ergo, in Star Trek mythology, when a primitive species advances technologically to certain point, they earn the right for extra terrestrial contact.
So, Edmund Haley's scientific analysis and predictions are simply scientific fruits made possible by the Greenwich Observatory, which connected the '1066 Judgement Day, William the Conqueror Comet' to the 1714-1742 Enlightenment Era, unto today, beginning in 2017. These cosmic and heavenly demonstrations proved to the public that science is "REAL."
The Greenwich Observatory, marks a major turning point for the understanding of science, that had a deep impact on civilization. Just as when the first atom was split, Sputnik was launched, or when we landed on the Moon.
Thus on, Sunday April 22, 1714...
It was one small step for Science, and one giant leap away from Superstition.
In reprise... on August 9, 2017 a flag conceived and designed in the Americas, The Prime Meridian Flag, was given a token courtesy, being hoisted upon this esteemed cultural landmark for science and learning.
Thus as a science educator of biology, chemistry, environmental, and forensic science, this is a great honor. It is an honor fueled by love, compassion, sincerity, and grace.
Just as Star Trek & Dr Who have inspired many to enter the scientific field, a key element of the source code for "Inspired Science" was written here, at the Greenwich Observatory.
The Key to Providence begins with a coincidence; sometimes that is all it is. But when the heart and/or soul are moved, it becomes Providence. As natinal flags are sacred sigils, this is the mark of Providence.
Idaho once had a thriving Chinese population, until the United States went Nazi-lite, with the Chinese exclusion act. Only until 1967, most of the Nazi-light laws rescinded with the Loving court case. Before then, if a white person married a black person, they could be sent to jail.
In the modern day, a minority of unscupluous Somalis have harmed the honor of Somali-Americans.
The higher path is often the harder to choose, and it is often easy to give to a tribal nature.
However, the honor of the Upright and Righteous Somali and Chinese are honored as an essential fiber of the American Spirit with the post-historical Foundational Fraternal Flags of Idaho & Minnesota.
Also note, the US has turned the corner and has crossed into the opposite direction as "commie-lite."
