Northern Territory New South Wales Heritage Flag
New Zealand New South Wales Heritage Flag
The New Zealand New South Wales Heritage flag is a post modern creation that honors the history of Australia and New Zealand. Although New Zealand and Australia are two completely different nations that have distinct cultures and accents, they were once united as one political entity for quite a while. New Zealand was a part of New South Wales for 52 years from 1788 until 1840. Thus in honor when New Zealand was attached to "Australia's Virginia", this flag commemorates their mutual heritage.
The design is a fusion of the modern New South Wales flag and popular New Zealand Fern Flag. The Lion has changed colours to white and the stars have been altered as double coloured Kiwi stars.

ST. PADDY'S DAY PLUS FLAG
Happy St. Patrick's Day 2015!
Although many people compare the Irish flag with the Italian Flag, it's natural partner is the Ivory Coast Flag, which is the Irish flag upside down, or rather the Irish flag is the Ivory Coast flag upside down - depending on your point of view.

Republic of Trumania Flag from the Truman Show - 1998
A distinct and original vexilloid makes an appearance in The Truman Show 1998, starring Jim Carrey. When Truman becomes aware that his life is not so ordinary, he acts in a silly fashion in front of his bathroom mirror. He uses soap to writes on the mirror a flag pennant with a letter "T" upon it. Truman then proclaims the planet for "Trumania of the Burbank Galaxy."
Trumania Flag, by Jim Carrey |
The amazing and hard to do aspect of the Truman Show is that it conveys deep and comical messages simultaneously. Jim Carrey walks that thin and delicate line between humour and thoughtful pondering. The Truman Show was a one of kind film, that was made perfectly before the dawn of the 21st century, as a kind of pre-science of things to come.
The Truman Show is perhaps the best utilization of a show within a show, that totally imbibes and carries the story, much like the theoretical moon of a moon - making this show a favorite of mature and philosophical thinkers and critics.

Geographic Latitude-Longitude Flag Key
----------------------

Newer Version
Corrected Colour Order
Reading longitude below 100° (values 0° E/W to 99° E/W) the hoist bar is the 10s value and the fly bar is the 1s value. And the central bar has no value, and will being white. Thus 45° East will be a tribar, as read from the fly, of green-white-cyan with central star with a yellow core. Also note for the tens/teens value of longitude (10° to 19°) will have a white stripe upon the coloured areas nearer the center.
