The red background represents socialism and the worker's movement.
The yellow star represents the five leading non-antagonistic classes in nefreedian socialism (the working class, the peasantry, the soldiery, the intelligentsia and the bureaucracy).
The black fist represents solidarity as well as militancy.


OOC: I actually got a tattoo with the fist and the star, just that the star is red (wouldn't work on the flag, for natural reasons).

Red is the purple of our ancient rulers,it can also mean the blood spilled to have the Catepanate we have today.
Yellow is the sun of our land.
Double-headed eagle is a sign of our Orthodox Christian religion.
Our official name is State of The Catepanate, or also State of Nèateèrùm.

The flag of the Igovian Soviet Commonwealth of Beddgelert is based upon the red flag associated for centuries with both revolt and defiance, and, since the French Revolution, with struggle of Socialist character in particular.

The Celtic knot in the hoist (left) side is representative of the infinite (Socialist) unity of the predominantly Geletian-Celtic people and their unbreakable bonds to the Left.

The triskelion harks back to the Gaulish roots of the Geletian people and the influence of Celtic culture on the modern Commonwealth, and is also thought representative of any number of triple-faceted aspects of Beddgelen life, from the unity between worker, peasant, and soldier (or, in some interpretations, scholar) to the importance -practical and religious- of sun, moon, and earth, or the so-called triarchy of Commonwealth political leadership in the Council of State, the League of Igovian Communists, and the Council of Ministers.

The crossed hammer and falx is styled after the more famous hammer and sickle used by the Soviet Union and by various other Communist states and organisations, but substitutes the latter tool with a dual-use scythe and sword. Known to the Dacians, whom the ancestral Geletians encountered during the Gaulish invasions of the Balkans and near-by areas, debate persists over whether the Celts introduced the falx to the Dacians, or adopted it from them. In either case it has been a valuable part of Geletian life ever since, long used as an agricultural tool that could be readily adapted for use in combat. Thus the hammer and falx represents not only worker and peasant as is the case with the similar Russo-Soviet icon, but also the soldier, while the falx's dual utility offers a nod to the concept of the citizen soldier and serves to remind laypeople of their duty to fight in the revolutionary cause.

You should be able to see it from here. Anyway. Although we are not enviromentilists, the tiger-based background represents our love for animals. The 2 Stars around the eyes represent the 2 Freedom Wars we have been in--The Revolution and the Civil War. The other 3 represent (Middle) Civil Freedom; (Top Left) Military; (Top Right) Justice.

Yep, that's pretty common mistake
My flag is based on the former South African flag, but Hippostania has nothing to do with Boers or Dutchmen :D

Dagnia wrote:Blue field: Air, possibilities in life, existence
Black: Earth, reality, the ground
The gold star: Fire, humanity, spirit

The star is inverted so it is firmly rooted and centered in the black (firmly grounded in reality), and that the two points pointing up point outward, instead of straight up, like towards a heaven (how we perceive the uninverted pentagram). The points reach out to all possibilities, not just one.


Impressive. I'm a fan!

The coat of arms in the center of the blue background represents our country being surrounded by the sea. The blue also stands for our marine heritage. The red on band on the coat of arms represents the blood of the soldiers who have defended our nation and the blood of the kings who have ruled our nation. The white shield represents the purity of the government and the purity of the ideals of the people. The stripe laid over the white shield represents that our government and way of life have been defended by the soldiers and kings.

Ko Te Tara o Te Tūpaengarau


The Flag of the People (in the Maori language: Ko Te Tara o Te Tūpaengarau) is the representation of the people in Ahi Maunga. The two blue strips represent the water: the ocean, lakes, and rivers of our nation. The four black strips represent the tauiwi, the non-native peoples. The red strips represent the culture of Ahi Maunga. The two Red Suns represent North and South Island, the two islands that make up Ahi Maunga. And the swallow in the centre is the representation of the Hirahira family, the ruling monarchial family of the nation.

First off, this nation is an extrapolation on the story of Watership Down and its sequel.

The profile represents Hazel, the founder of the confederation.
The stars represent the members of the confederation.
The blue background represents nobility in the moral sense.

My actual avatar flag is just silly, that's the meaning.

As for my in-game nation flag:

In short, it is a mix of several flags and symbols, mainly the flags of Pakistan and Afghanistan. The Arabic letters are those affiliated with the major terrorist groups that helped to form the nation. The Islamic crest is a reminder of the inherently theocratic Islamic rule in the nation.
