Tennessee Tilt Flags for nations with a Tennessee Tilt

 A Tennessee Tilt is when a state or nation is aligned by geography like Tennessee.  Such that Tennessee Tilt nations are parallel to Africa and Europe.  It is similar to a Virginia Tilt but in this case most of the state is tilted towards Africa rather than Europe.  Basically Tennessee Tilt states have mild winters and long hot African-like summers.  Sure it may snow from time to time, but July and August can broil people from the far north.

US states with a Tennessee Tilt are North Carolina, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico and Arizona.  Nations that qualify for a Tennessee Tilt flag include Algeria, Pakistan, Syria, and Tunisia.  

So what does this mean?  I guess these nations like Tennessee have a lot guts and gumption to do it their own way.  They tend to have a thick layer of muscle and grit protecting their strong red blooded beating hearts, and aint afraid to put up their Dukes to defend their honor.

Virginia Tilt flags for nations with a Virgina Tilt

Virginia Tilt?  What in the world is a Virginia Tilt and why do we need Virginia Tilt Flags?

First of all a Virginia Tilt flag is based upon a geographic artifact of Virginia in the United States.  Virginia is of the states to sit parallel to both Africa and Europe but with a slight tilt towards to Europe.  On the other hand there are another group of states that lay in a similar way but with a tilt towards Africa - which are the Tennesee Tilt Flags.  But that's another can of worms.  Suffice it to say nations or states with a Virginia Tilt have their southern ends waddling into the latitude of Africa while their northern parts are parallel to Europe.  Thus the nations Spain, Greece, and Tajikistan all qualify for a Virginia Tilt Flag.  Six other US states also qualify for this honored emblem as well.  You can see those flags here. The design of the flag is based upon the flags of Jamaica, US and final Confederate design.

Missouri Middle Max Flags for Nations on par with Missouri

Missouri is the first state in the Union to be in totality at both African and European latitudes, with regard to the continents.  California and Nevada are the only other two states to have this unique geographic point of view, meaning only these three states can legally geographically speaking claim to know a sweltering and sizzling hot African summer day, bitter European Winter night, and the gentle days of fall of autumn.


Likewise there are nations that fall into the Missouri Middle Max line of geography which is based upon the north south alignments of the continents of Europe and Africa. The nations of Japan, Korea, China, Turkmenistan, Iran, Turkey, and Afghanistan all qualify for a Missouri Middle Max Flag. A Missouri Middle Max flag has the 24 star circle imprint that originates from the Missouri Flag.  Thus these nations are the climatic know-it-all.  Like Missouri this gives them a deep gut gumption to do it their own way and in many ways.  And their worst enemy is often themselves, since they can have political jocks on extreme ends, I suppose.   What I means is that just as Missouri has extreme right wing agents that want it their way or the highway, and extreme left wing huggle-bears willing to do anything, and regular folk that just wants to be happy and left in peace.

Thus these states and nations have the 360 degree point of view, so they have been fated to get a star for each hour of the day, since these places can see the problem from all point of views.  So it seems.

Anyhoo, these flags are simply totems to 'show yous' that they are geographically similars like Missorui with a proverbial 24 hr/360 degree perspective on the earth or something like that.

US flag in the Car's Rock and Roll Video - Magic 1984

A US flag can briefly be seen the Cars music video Magic 1984.  A man who looks like a WWI pilot playing two trumpets has a US flag arm patch on his left shoulder.

Westernized Flag Chart of the Chinese Zodiac & Wheel

This is the Westernized Chinese Zodiac Wheel.  Both the Eastern and Western Zodiac wheels fit into a similar 12 beat rhythm, yet set their tempo on the two most pronounced objects in heaven - the Sun and the Moon. The harmonious alignment between the Eastern and Western Zodiac is that both are divided into twelve tribes or signs.  Furthermore the points of change for the Western Zodiac follows a monthly lunar cycle  but is calibrated by the solar cycle.  On the other hand the Eastern Zodiac follows a yearly solar cycle but is calibrated to lunar cycle, more or less. 

A Western Flag for the Chinese Zodiac: The Year of the Dragon

 Western Year of the Dragon Symbol and Flag.  This is the last Westernized symbol for the Oriental Zodiac.  Why invent a Western Symbol?  It is only a natural path since the East has developed and adapted symbols for the Occidental-Western Zodiac.  Besides its 2013, the East is all over the West and vice-versa.  Just as the Western Lunar Zodiac is universal for all nations, its high time that the Eastern Zodiac be recognized as well in a similar manner and not just for peoples of East Asia.  The East and West Zodiacs can be brought together since they do not compete in the same virtual space.  The Eastern tempo is set by the solar cycle punctuated by the moon, while the Western beat is set by the lunar cycle punctuated by the sun.

The flag of for Earth's Year of the Dragon has a yellow background with the Westernized Dragon symbol in black.

A Western Flag for the Chinese Zodiac: The Year of the Rabbit

The Year of the Rabbit is the most feminine sign of the Eastern Zodiac.  Simple black and white are the elements of its flag.  Black is the background and the Western Symbol illustrated in white.  The Western symbol is loosely based upon the official Chinese Character.
















Also note that some people see this 'animal' of the Zodiac as the Year of the Cat instead of the Year of the Rabbit, most notably in Vietnam.  Which is right?  Well it's a Yin and Yang thing, so it can be both.  The essence of a cat is like a rabbit with a dash of Yang energy.  Besides, Vietnam and China are already flag partners in the early colonial yellow national flags as well as Communist Red flag forms.  Coincidentally they both look like animals that come from eggs - China looks like a chicken while Vietnam looks like snake. The cat is an evolved level up of the rabbit.  Both are associated with the moon, thusly every Oriental Zodiac should thus get an alternate form or 'Pokemon' like level up.  Another animal in the Eastern Zodiac with a binary point of the view is the Year of the Pig.  

But the next step in the Eastern Cycle belongs to the scaly Draco.
