The New Yornecticut Flag - The Connecticut-New York Heritage Flag
New York is known for putting on the squeeze on New Jersey to give up its northern feather of territory, likewise Big New York put the squeeze on Connecticut to give up its western claims and all of Long Island. I mean like come on, Connecticut lost all the isles on Long Island Sound. Nutmegers even established some colonies on Long Island. New York got a big slice of the mainland and all of the isles in Nutmegger Bay. But New York took it all, I guess it is the Empire State after all.
So no matter, the New Yornecticut Flag is a heritage flag that can be flown over the parts of New York that were nearly a part of Connecticut. Instead of three grape vines there are three red apples. Also the background is green and Connecticut's motto is translated into Dutch. It reads, "De Goddelijke Kract Transplaneert Onderseunt." Which means that God transplants and sustains.
So when you eat an big apple in the area, be sure to sprinkle it with just tiny bit of Nutmeg.

The Connectohio Flag: Connecticut-Ohio Territory Heritage Flag
Consequently we have the post historical, geographic flag that honors this short time in history where Ohio was a part of Connecticut. The flag is a little different, but based upon the flag of Connecticut. The field is red. Instead of three grapevines there are three Buckeye leaves, each with a Buckeye. Also the motto has changed to, "The Holy Winds of Grace Transplant Us." This is a translation into English of Connecticut's motto.
So what this means is that People in Cleveland can root for the Huskies of Connecticut or rather Nutmegers can root for Cavs? Maybe people in this area of Ohio can get a mid-way instate tuition rate, if they go to a public school in Connecticut, or vice verse for this region of Ohio?
The Connectsylvania Flag: The Pennsylvania-Connecticut Heritage Flag
For several years Pennsylvania and Connecticut bonked heads over ownership of northern Pennsylvania. This lead to the Pennamite-Yankee Wars which flared from 1769 until 1784. This issue was finally settled under President Washington in 1799. Obviously, Pennsylvania won out and the settlers from Connecticut became Pennsylvanians.
The heritage flag that can be flown over anywhere in Pennsylvania that was almost a part of Connecticut has a violet background. The violet colour is in honor of the purple grapes of Connecticut. Also, instead of grapevines, there are mushrooms because Pennsylvania is the Mushroom Capital of the USA. Finally, the motto is written in Swedish in honor of the Swedish settlers who were first permanent Old World settlers of Pennsylvania, who like the Nutmegers from Connecticut, lost out on their political title, yet were allowed to stay and fuse with Pennsylvania.
