Missouri is the first state in the Union to be pan-geographic with respect to Africa and Europe. Missouri like several other states is parallel to both continental Africa and Europe with respect to geography.
The Missouri difference is that it crosses over beyond the intercontinental overlap of Africa and Europe. Thus Missouri has soil in both regions that are wholly European and wholly African.
Two other states in the class of the Missouri Middle Maximum are - California and Nevada. Thus these states get Missouri Middle Max Flags.
The essential element of a Missouri Middle Maximum flag is that it have the 24 starred ring of the Missouri State Flag, which is a number of wholeness since there are 24 hours in a day. So like a semi-famous Mr. Cooper A., Missouri Maximum States can see things from many - supposedly an all sides - points of view.
The Nevada Missouri Middle Max Flag
Nevada has more area on par with Europe but her southern counties are even to North Africa and Algeria.
The California Missouri Middle Max Flag
California is the proverbial Yin and Yang State since it has the highest and lowest points of the United 48 States. Likewise she is balanced between Africa and Europe - LA being on par with Africa while San Francisco is on par with Europe.

Geographic Flags - States Flags with a Tennessee Tilt
STATE FLAG OF TENNESSEE |
Thus these flags unite certain states that have a 'Tennessee Outlook.' What I means, is that they match in geographic terms in similar manners to Tennessee. By which, their southern counties are all on par with Africa. It is a fact that most of the Southern Counties of North Carolina, Tennessee, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico and Arizona are totally at the same latitude of Africa. Legally speaking these southern counties see eye to eye with Africa and do not match in climate with the continental realm of Europe. Yet none of the Tennessee Tilt states reach into the purely European Sphere of geography. In a ways these states are the natural counter balance to states with a Virginia Tilt.
All the northern counties with Tennessee Tilts are on par at the narrow intercontinental gap where Africa and Europe are parallel - between 36 degrees north and 37 degrees and nearly a third somethin' north.
The Tennessee Tilt flags are based upon the state flag of Tennessee. Tennessee is a state that was a most divided by geography by east to west, north to south, and mountain to lower valley. Tennessee folk understands how the lay of the land played a pivotal role in shaping the course of politics. Just ask any Tennessee Student of History about the US Civil war and you'll get an in depth speech how the land spoke though the people, as to which sides their ancestors a been fightin' on.
The Texas-Tennessee Tilt Flag
Tennessee like Texas is geographically speaking much like Africa when it comes to latitude.
The Arkansas-Tennessee Tilt Flag
Also note that Arkansas is the 'fraternal twin of Tennessee.' Both states have mountains and low valleys. Also note during the US Civil war the more mountainous a county was in Arkansas the less likely to lean towards the Confederacy. Since Arkansas goes a bit more Southern than Tennessee it had an equally much heavier pro-Confederate tilt.
The North Carolina-Tennessee Tilt Flag
Didja' ever notice Texas and North Carolina have similar flags? And on top of that they both have Tennessee Tilts. North Carolina Tilt don't sound so nice and a Carolina Tilt is too confusing since South Carolina is 100% all on par with the continent of Africa, and hases a total incapacity to see it geographically speaking like they do in Europe.
The Oklahoma-Tennessee Tilt Flag
Only the added colour of blue to cancel the sameness is in honor of Tennessee. Also the red background harkens back to Oklahoma's original flag that was red with white at its center. They changed it because it looked too commie-like. Ironically just as the commies in Russia were keen on movin' people who were in the way of national objectives, many a Oklahoma family was forced to reside in this state at gunpoint. Nonetheless Oklahoma and Tennessee are sisters of similar geography.
The New Mexico-Tennessee Tilt Flag
A nice blend of the New Mexico Flag with the flag of Tennessee. It preserves the essential elements, yet looks like something thing entirely new.
The Arizona-Tennessee Tilt Flag
Finally the Arizona-Tennessee Tilt flag. Although Arizona is a longs way off from Tennessee it certainly has a southern hitch abouts its self.
Geographic Flags - State Flags with a Virginia Tilt
Six states in the Union have a Virginia Tilt. A Virginia Tilt means that they follows in a sense the climatic and geographic positions of ye' Virginia.
Virginia is geographically aligned in between the two great continents. Virginia's northern counties are parallel to Europe only while her southern parts are parallel to North Africa.
Seven states, including Virginia, can legally claim to enjoy both 'hot African summer nights' and know 'a chilly winter's day as it is in Europe.' The design of the flag is based upon design of Jamaica and final design of the Confederacy with adjusted colours and style of the modern state flags.
The Kentucky-Virginia Tilt Flag
Kentucky is a near match in climate to Virginia. The southern counties are on par with North Africa, while her northern counties match to Spain.
The Illinois-Virginia Tilt Flag
Believe it or not the southern part of Illinois is much like the South. Some cities in Illinois are even more southern than Richmond, Virginia. No doubt General Washington would've found the southern tip of Illinois to be mosts like home.
Illinois also has the most northern reach of states with a Virginia Tilt. Also, the northern part of Illinois is on par with Canada. Illinois is of the proverbial middle states to know both the climate of Canada and the Confederacy.
The Kansas-Virginia Tilt Flag
Yep, the southern counties of Kansas are on par with Algeria. It's no wonder the original immigrants thought it was a desert. But thanks to rain water and productive use of water Kansas is an American bread basket.
The Colorado-Virginia Tilt Flag
Just as the Atlas Mountains of Morocco pierce into the sky so do the Rockies of Colorado.
The Utah-Virginia Tilt Flag
Utah is the last state to have that semi-unique way of knowing with African and European climate, at least at high altitudes.

Flag of the Pacific Princess - The Love Boat
In honor of Valentines Day 2013, here is an appropriate flag - the flag of the Pacific Princess.
This is a one a once in a lifetime television series that magnificently harmonized up comedy, drama, romance, and action all into one. Offering up insights, ups and downs on the human heart. It was the proverbial 'Sea Trek' of the human heart.
Hangs ups on love, life were a main stay on the Love Boat. A classic series that rode the wave of drama in waves of absurd sitcom humor balanced with serious heartfelt footnotes.
Much of the charm rested in a diverse crew balanced with a healthy infusion of new stars minor and major.
Flag of the Pacific Princess featured the stylized outline of woman's head blowing in the breeze. The colours of the flag were white, green and blue. The background was white and the head was blue as was most of the hair. Small dashed of green accentuated the hair.
The Love Boat was flagged under a red British Ensign.
