View attachment 317214
i counted 114 states (that could be wrong, who knows) and i want some one to make a flag to complement this insanity, much appreciation to those who take the challange

I counted 123, but I might've accidentally counted some twice. I am curious as to how they (the alt. U.S. gov. - not the mapmaker who said this was just for fun) would've justified those tiny speck states.
My single most ambitious U.S. flag has 91 stars, and I thought that was overdoing it.

Hmm now its at about 45 because really South Africa was only nearly right.

Hmm... Canada, Oceania, Western Australia, and West Indies for sure.

Spot on but Oceania is Australasia, just to be a pedant!


Here's a clue; the Puffin dominion existed in OTL with a different flag.

Got it, the Newfie Puffin is a popular symbol of the tiny nation ITTL.

[Major Crimson]

By the way, how is South Africa "nearly right"?

Technically its the Cape, South Africa also exists as a fully independent Boer Republic with the Cape consisting of the original British Cape Colony and having practically 0 Boer population.
