    Interesting flag nurizeko!

    But I have to agree with gaijin. The flag is great and highly creative but it seems a bit too elaborate and uneven. Plus no other country has a map on their flag and it...

    Adopting a new flag may also be an alternative to the current commie flag. However as far as tradition goes this was the original flag of China when the Chinese Empire fell. It was perfected until...
