What's up? After reading Basileus's post about creating things and coming up with ideas, I decided to do my part and post something I saw in the NS forum. They called it something else, but I'll call it "Name that Flag."
Here's how it goes. Look at the flag of the person who posted above you and give an explanation of what it stands for. If your profile here doesn't show your country's flag, the person trying to explain it will need to go on NS and look on the region's main page for the country's flag. If your user name doesn't show the name of your country, then you'll need to include it in your post.
My country's name is Etruria Regalea. So...Begin!

I looked at yours and I can see you're country is probably by the sea because of the blue, it's a conservative monarchy that's been around for a while and connected to the House of Austria. How'd I do?

OK, I'm game for this. Let's see if I get this right. Cappadocia's flag...hmmm. OK, how about the blue represents rivers that separate the (gold) plains from the (purple) mountains. It's in the form of a cross so maybe that signifies their adherence to Christianity...? Did I get it?

Well, I'll go out on a limb here and say that Xanxa's flag has a symbol that looks like a uterus. The colors are nice and the symbolism is great!

Hahahaha! Thats so inappropriate but funny! Good thing Xanxabara has a thick skin. I don't know which of your countries flags to do since you got one in the union and one in the alliance. I'll do the one you have in the union. Well, it has an imperial eagle in the middle that must be something having to do with the Austrian Empire and two stars. The two stars are for the two crownlands (I'm guessing there are two of them) and the stripes I guess those are the national colors of the confederation?

There's nothing wrong with having some fun! Let's see, Dalmato-Croatia. The stipes are the Pan-Slavic colors defaced with the Croatian coat of arms showing the different areas like Dalmatia and other provinces.

How'd I do? You did just perfect! Either that or you read my nswiki article. ;D I thought you guys would like a little humor with this. Xanxa is a good sport. Look at all of Bas's crap she puts up with. I like her style! It would be great to meet her in RL!  I just imagine she's quite a party girl! |

Guess I should go again. I think Cardecion's national flag would be the one. I think with the red and green there was bloodshed to become a free nation, there's a lot of agriculture or forest because of the green and the star may represent socialism?

Yours is very interesting. At first I wasn't sure if the base was the Italian or Mexican flag. After I looked at the shield, I figured it was something signifying the old Mexican Empire. The crowns gave it away. THe eagle with the snake was the other giveaway. So, I guess your nation is situated in the Mexico Valley. Maybe this is a reincarnation of the old Mexican or Aztec Empires. How did I do?

And just for the record, I don't think the symbol on your flag looks like a uterus...  |

Well I hope that limb you're on breaks and you fall and land on your head! I don't know whose worse. You or Basileus! And for your information, it's not a uterus. It's a flower native to the main island of Zanzabar. I don't know what it's called but it's not a uterus. You know, now that you mention it, it kinda does look like one, huh? OMG! I'm turning into you two!  |

Oh, I forgot to describe the flag above me. I think it would be the new guy from Pontus Bosporia. Let's see here...
If I remember my geography (well actually I don't so I went on google and got Bosporus), your country is between the Black Sea and the Aegean Sea. You're kinda between the Greeks and the Turks. The crosses are for the Greeks and the moon and star for the Turks. Did I get it?
