Contrairement a ce que pense Branco, il n'y a jamais eut de grosse abeille sur le drapeau de la France... (c'était un symbole utilisé par Napoléon).

C'est probablement ce qu'il compte utiliser s'il est au pouvoir un jour

"On its left side, the flag contains a dark blue background with a white, 8-point star. One of the points of the star points north, representing the state’s motto “L’étoile du Nord.” The 8-point star mirrors the one on floor of the Rotunda of the Minnesota State Capitol, which features inlaid African marble with a brass outline of the 8-point star as designed by Cass Gilbert. From an angle the 8-point star also creates the illusion of four-letter Ms.

"The dark background is a stylized shape of the outline of the State of Minnesota, representing the land of Minnesota.

"The remainder of the flag is a solid, bright blue, representing water. Minnesota is the land of 10,000 lakes, the home of the Headwaters of the Mississippi River, Lake Superior, and the start of the Great Lakes Basin."
—Minnesota Secretary of State's website

watching a #Patagonia doc and realised the 🇨🇱 Chilean flag is very similar to that of #Texas ; with the Star and the Blue section on the left extending all the way to the bottom for the American state.

The principality of 🇲🇨 #Monaco and 🇮🇩 #Indonesia flags are almost identical in case you didn't know.

The dramatic "Schwarz-Rot-Gold" flag of Germany goes back to the March Revolution of 1848, to symbolize the movement against the extant Conservative Order. It was adopted as the national flag from 1919 to 1933, and again since 1949. When the flag was first adopted in 1919, the choice was roundly criticized by conservatives, monarchists, and the far right.

Why is #Minnesota redesigning its state flag? Among the several notable reasons is because it gets flown upside down. A lot. Here it is being flown upside down today at the #DetroitLakes police department.

In 1990, this was the unofficial flag of the newly reconstituted German state of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. While this flag was properly representative of Mecklenburg, it of course had no meaning for the people of Vorpommern. So the next year, the state adopted a new, more boring flag, with colors acceptable to the entire state.

I've had this flag for about 30 years, but this is the first time up on a flagpole.
