Weekly Flag Challenge: Discussion & Entries

And this week's competition is closed, with rather a lot of entries. Good luck to everyone who entered - the voting thread is up here.
 
The flag of Australia was mistaken for Austria, or vice-versa?

No, NBC seemed to have confused the actual *countries* together describing Australia as a picturesque european landlocked country.

But did either have the country NAME as part of the flag, which is the point at issue here?


Thankfully, no one ever decided to adopt a national flag that featured as its most prominent element its own name.

Flag Challenge 89 entry

This is the flag of Soyuz Naroda (Сою́з Народа) the alliance of nations ruled by regimes following НАПРH ideology and believing in it's call for Pan-Slavic solidarity and ultimate union of the Slavic folk while seizing territories from the Mitteleuropa Raete communist enemies, who they believed oppressed Slavs.

This military alliance included many states which were largely unrecognised, including the Lusatian State for instance and other minority Slavic populations in not Slavic states which were all recognized by other НАПРH nations. States considered Non-Slavic were not included in this alliance. The flag has 25:12 ratio, the shield with symbol of Rece Boga (symbol adopted by the Russian НАПРH party and considered the symbol of it's ideology) representing the defence that Slavic solidarity will bring to the people, said solidarity only possible through the НАПРH ideology. The twin axes represent the axe of Perun, chief Slavic god of thunder, with the symbol of Perun on the axe blade as well. Also are the two glagolitic letters for "С" and "Н" abbreviating Сою́з Народа.

Shouldn't we first make a poll so everyone can vote whether to ask or not to ask Ian to make the poll on whether they want the poll tax or not?

I don't know if we need a poll about a poll on a tax on polls regarding polls allowing polls on entries in polls. Have a poll about it?
