New UK Flag Proposal with Wales Aspect

The flag of the United Kingdom is a composite of flags: Scotland, England, & Ireland. However there is no official incorporation of Wales. Why are the Welsh ignored?

Well.... in honor of things Welsh, here is a flag that adds a smattern' of Welsh green!

New Union Flag with Welsh Colours
















Amazingly Wales was the first kingdom united with England yet no major effort was ever made to incorporate Welsh identity in the famous UK flag!

Ecuador & Colombia

Flag of Ecuador

From the ashes of a super 'United States of South America' we have two magnificent remnants: Ecuador & Colombia. In the United States of America the union was held together but in South and Central America the rebellious spirit of the states triumphed over the will of preserving the union of Grand Colombia.

They are nominally united in language, ethnic, and spirit; Spanish, Mestizo, and Catholic. But yet totally divided by politics, much like Canada & the United States, or rather New York and South Carolina.

Flag of Columbia

Ecuador straddles two hemispheres since the equator crosses her lands, as it does as does Colombia!

They also have muy similar Coat of Arms. There is the grand CONDOR on the crest with the head tilted to the left. A repeat of the national flags in the supporter positions. Both have ships on the water, Colombia has two since she touches the Atlantic and Pacific.

El Salvador and Nicaragua: i muy muy similar!

El Salvador
If you thought that the Aussie and Kiwi flags were similar...take a look here!

El Salvador and Nicaragua not only have similar flags but similar coats of arms. This is partly due to when they were united in the very short lived in the 'United Central American States.'

Unity can sometimes be a very difficult thing.

Guinea-Bissau & Benin

Flag of Guinea-Bissau



Guinea-Bissau & Benin are at the ends and beginnings of the bulge of Atlantic Black West Africa. Their flags are tri-coloured with a T division.

Flag of Benin

The actual shape of these nations are a result of natural convenience and the imperial imprint of Western Europe; namely France, Germany, Portugal and the UK! Due to these nearly arbitrary divisions, tribal peoples have been divided for some greater purpose. It is from these nations that most of the African American peoples in the USA, Canada, Jamaica, and elsewhere can trace their heritage.

I'm totally for African-American people getting government subsidised genetic heritage testing so they can see where their stolen heritage comes from. It is the right thing to do. Just imagine if you didn't know if you had Irish, French, Italian or German heritage? What if you didn't know if you were Korean, Japanese or Cambodian? Or perhaps you had no idea if you have Iraqi, Persian, Israeli, or Yemeni blood? Additionally all the persons in the genetics industry would totally appreciate the government spending. Money come money go. We spend money to see whats on the dark side of the moon, let's spend money so our African-American Brothers and Sisters can know their heritage. It's the righteous, moral, and absolutely fun thing to do.

So who should foot the bill? USA, Canada, Spain, Portugal, Netherlands, France, Belgium, Germany, Italy, Denmark, and the UK. Japan, Russia, New Zealand, and Australia should participate voluntarily if only to get a boost in the fields of genetic research.

In any case, if you have a free moment and cash to burn, you should visit these wonderful beaches, friendly people, and happy sunshine. Benin and Guinea Bissau are action packed with tons smiles for everyone!

Eritrea & Djibouti, on the coast line of the Red Sea

Flag of Eritrea

Eritrea & Djibouti are two African Nations at the nexus point between Asia and Africa. Both Eritrea and Djibouti have coast lines along the ancient and mystical Red Sea.

You can think of the Red Sea as balanced with Black Sea, like a cosmic checkerboard. The Black Sea is the private sea between Asia & Europe, while the Red Sea is a private sea between Asia & Africa. But the Mediterranean Sea is balanced with all three: Africa, Europe, and Asia.

Flag of Djibouti

The similarity of their flags is sublime. They both have a triangle of different proportions extending into the middle. The upper half of Djibouti is blue and the lower half is green, while in Eritrea the upper half is green and the lower half is blue. Eritrea's triangle is mostly red with a yellow wreath and an standing olive branch, while Djibouti's triangle is mostly white with a red star.

With respect to faith, the people of Eritrea are equally divided with half using the Holy Bible as their spiritual text while the other half reads from the Holy Koran. But Djibouti is mostly Islamic at over 93% in Islam.

Antarctic Flags Twins: Chile and Argentina

Chilean Flag of Antarctic Region
1997

Currently two nations have created flags for their territories in Antarctica: Chile and Argentina. Amazingly the colour and patterns are remarkably similar. Both employ blue, white, and orange of slightly different tints. Chile has the southern Cross pointing downwards to the lower right, while Argentina has the Southern Cross pointing upwards to the upper right.

Why would these two nations design such similarly jagged blue, white, and orange Antarctica flags?

Argentina Flag of Antarctic Region
1999

Perhaps there is some kind of weird collective unconscious connection to the two most prevalent flags already designed for Antarctica?

The first vexillological Antarctica flag was designed by an American in 1978. The American Antarctica flag uses orange as its primary colour. More than twenty years later, another Antarctica flag was released upon the masses that was designed by a British Citizen in the 1996. The interesting coincidence to note is that the Chile and Argentina Antarctica flags seem to be fusion of these these two flags designed by established vexillologists.
