Well that wasn't what you said, you said
My immediate thought was a red hammer and sickle in place of the globe, and otherwise the same as OTL. And as I said, that was clichéd and frankly false.
For future reference, I've put this together. Every communist state (I think, I may have missed some). NEVER have they just taken the old flag and put a Hammer and sickle on. In fact the H&S doesn't future on this chart since I used the original Russian communist flag, which was a bit sneaky I admit. As well some of the earlier flags are a bit of a push, East Germany and the Portuguese colonies especially. Hey, I'm making a point not doing proper historical research.
In fact, more specifically the flags DON'T LOOK LIKE THIS:
COMMUNISM DOES NOT WORK THAT WAY .
Sorry, but this has come up before and I just felt it needed to be done. Nothing personal Martinus Paduei. Plus it was good procrastination
