In Arabiak there is no law against flag burning(Arabiak flag) but odds are that citizens outraged at this will definetly assault the flag burners and they will not be stopped till things get out of hand. Burning other nation flags is legal unless flag is of a nation which Arabiak has an embassy in.

It's legal to burn the Flag of CKJ23 if the flag is the property of the person or the person has permition to burn it. The flag is just like other properties. CKJ23 does not have a special law for flag burning.

Legally, it's a Class A Misdemeanor which is just short of a legal felony. You can get yourself in quite a bit of trouble that way, earning yourself some probation, national service (community service), etc. However, socially it's also quite a condemned practice, especially in the western regions of the homeland such as in the capital (Curriopolis) and in Oceania where the Nationalist Party holds popular strongholds.

Burning a flag in a protest is possibly one of the most enraging things someone could do and it's a fast-paced guaranteed way of getting your ass handed to you by the Military Police.

Calm down, it''s just fabric!

Actually its a lot more than fabric, its your national Identity. If any one dares to burn the flag he is disloyal not only to Goverment but to nation. The person butning own flag is a terrorist.

In Vandengaarde, the burning of our flag is celebrated as a pastime, as it distracts our people from murder and other crimes by uniting them in an activity that expresses freedom of speech, our largest freedom.

Greatg idea

Absoloutely legal in Hindopia. But if you harm anyone else or any property that is not your own then you will be punished. There are advisements for flag burning, issued by the government, as to the safest procedure but they are simply guides. No one really follows them.

any one who burns our flag is burned at the stake.

Anyone found burning the flag of Venezue is generally met with several bullets to the torso and head.

It's not the fabric that is the cause of concern. The burning of a flag is an act of defiance and treason against the state and should be punished properly. Though that is a little extreme.

the last one was in 2008.

Reminds me of that Pen and Teller trick they did where they burned the flag not out of disrespect but out of the fact the constitution allows such an act and how we have more rights than some other countries.

Burning the Zevcon flag... considering as how we're still trying to consolidate power over our holdings, good luck with that.

Well our citizens burn flags all the time. And houses.... And people.... we just love our right to protest. Burning flags of corrupt and capitalist nations is encouraged, and burning the flag of Spetsnazastan is commonly seen whenever anyone is unhappy. Luckily we have a very ideal nation or we would have burnt to the ground already.
