- AN (temporary) flag is simple and hypnotising.
- I like the unique design of neon colours.
- There's not much I could think of right now, overall it's good to me

8/10

10/10. I love the flame-like tricolor bands at the bottom and top of the flag, the ring of stars filling in the gaps between the big 7-point star in the middle is quite creative, and the colors in general fit very very well together.

It also earns points for being immediately recognizable. It's a unique design for a flag, I instantly know who I'm looking at upon seeing it.

The colours and stars naturally lead me to think of Brazil - deliberate choice or freakish happenstance? The design as a whole is pleasingly bold and I could easily imagine it billowing at the top of a pole. I like the use of four-point stars, rather than the fairly common choice of five-point - they feel a bit more sophisticated. Is that a particular real constellation? Even if its a fictional one, I'd imagine that it holds some significance to your people. Overall, I like it - perhaps the shades of green and blue are a little too close to each other and some greater contrast could be introduced there. 9/10

It's a timeless and very unique design, the colors also work pretty well! <3 The octopus / Cthulhu may be a little difficult to draw for kids in school, but other than that, everything about it is pretty good and I personally have no complaints.

4/10 the first part of the banner is interesting but the diamond pattern doesn’t mix well. I’d say just have normal blue and white stripes

AN's flag is weird to me, it's unconventional yet still works as a flag. The symbol is nice, colors decent, I will give AN an 8/10.

- Love the colour palette you use. Blue and yellow is simple but nice looking.
- Flag elements reminded me of Macedonian Empire and European Union at the same time, which I like it
- Love how the middle yellow line is not just straight, but have detail at the centre
- Felt the stars are not that perfectly circle aligned, perhaps need a tool to adjust them

9/10 a good flag to me

10/10. I love it. No criticism or ways to make it better. BN, feel free to use any of my flags found in my factbooks
The alternate official name is Tír na nÓg. Elves, leprechauns, dragons, and a bunch of other fictional creatures are real. The nation name is technically "Adharcáilí," (pronounced "ay-er-KOH-li") with accents over the third A and second I. However, Nationstates doesn't allow accents in nation names, so that's why I don't have them in the nation name. If you would like to refer to Adharcáilí correctly though, use the accents.

I like it! You have a simple color palate, and the design gives a good, straightforward symbolic presentation of what your nation's all about. My only criticism is the placement of the stars relative to the Cross - it looks a little bit cluttered.

The color scheme is absolutely p e r f e c t too.

7/10. Simple and visually pleasing, albeit the symbolism may be a bit vague. I'd suggest using another element to replace the white-red bicolore band, or convert it to two banners instead.

Zerzura (زرزورة)
A mythical city located in the Sahara Desert
Zerzura was indeed described as a white city that was approachable through a wadi (valley) that ran between two mountains, and from the wadi was a road that lead to the gates of the city which had a carving of a strange bird above them.

Using a new flag. What do you think?

Simple and a nice color. Solid 8/10.
The Sith Empire is a force of dominance, an authoritarian state forged from militarism, totalitarianism, and the dark side of the Force. United under a single Empress, her Dark Council and by the Empire's Wrath, ruled by the Force-sensitive members of the Sith Order and supported by 30 trililon loyal citizens, the Empire forsakes the freedoms offered by the Republic in favor of strength and order. The Sith Empire will stop at nothing to become the greatest power in the galaxy. Although an uneasy truce has settled over the galaxy, the Empire does not sit idle. From its capital of Dromund Kaas, Imperial high command exerts total control over the worlds it has conquered, rebuilding its forces to once again to march on the enemies of their Sith overlords.

I like the design. It's fairly complex, but I'm fine with that. Recognizable, but I feel like the seal in the middle could've taken up more of the circle and looked better. Still, solid 7/10 imo.

Pleasing colours and layout. The central charge is rather complex, but then there are real-world flags like that. The only real fault is the star and moon being far too close to the edges of their respective divisions - you should make them smaller and more centred so they have some surrounding clearance. 7/10

Didn't see an IC flag, so assuming the one in your profile is IC.

Points for standing out; the color scheme is definitely garish and children could probably draw the character from memory, but definitely not the whole flag. Even discounting the character, the US style flag definitely clashes, and I'm having trouble determining if the icons replacing the stars are meant to be toothy grins or shells.

3/10, but it made me smile!
