Don't many of the French states have flags from the first thread, CIEN? I think Normandy already has a flag.

Here is burgundy's flag in EU3. Don't know if that can apply to this game but..

NOTE: Forgot how to make a picture without a link. Sorry.

I rather like Burgundy's medieval flag, but I've really no idea where Burgundy's divergences would be relevant to their modern flag.

I prefer the first JK

I rather like the third, because it has more emphasis on the English-Norman relationship, but the first is a close second to me.

I wasn't aware of a dependent association with the fleur. I suppose in that case you could just take them out and keep the cour-de-lys. For Orleans, that is.

Yeah, simple change:

Also, on the same page with your post:

Catalonia:

If someone would find them, that'd be cool, because I wouldn't know where to start looking.

Whatever floats your highly uneducated boat, bro.



If I wanted to read dated and bias histories, I'd read good ones.

Whatever you say, man. I'm the educated one backed up by every educated person here and in the field of history. Doesn't bother me in the least that you're incorrect, but at least learn to shut your mouth.

@ Stockholme, I already made a Norman flag for old Normandy. It had three crowns.

 

[J.K. Stockholme]

Would you post it please? I'd like to see it and use it for other map purposes.

There is a flag for Burgduny:

I had posted it in the thread.

 

[Jehoshua]

Considering the Empire of Burgundy was extirpated as a consequence of its foolishness into Burgundy (non-monarchical) and The Commune of Paris (Ile de France) one would suppose the flags have somewhat changed (or reverted to the forms of the original states)

 

[EQandcivfanatic]

Jehoshua is correct, the flag of the Burgundian Empire would likely be destroyed in favor of the original Parisian and Burgundian flags.

 

[Lord_Iggy]

As I have stated in the past, the (mostly Christian) world as a whole is substantially more religiously influenced than it would have been OTL at this point. There is a key difference as to the reasoning why: The Church (and Protestants) started the century discouraging war and was heavily against the Great War. While this made them unpopular at the time, it did not discredit organized religion to the same degree that the religious support for the OTL Great War did. Similarly actions to combat nationalism have led to more identification with religious institutions than with nationalities in some cases. As for the number of times people go a week, that I could not say, though I suspect in a nation like Russia is at the moment, the Church acts as a vital gathering place and nexus of the nation's communities. Especially considering that for most Russians lifestyle has not really changed in the past hundred years.

As for numbers, I don't track those, beyond some very loose stats per nation.

Given this, and the fact that Vinland was neutral throughout the Atlantic War/Great War, what would you say were the impacts on Vinlandic religiosity?

 

[EQandcivfanatic]

I'd argue that Vinland is probably one of the world's more secular nations, simply due to its policies, position, and relative sanity when compared to its neighbors. However, that does not really mean that there is no religion or anything, as I suspect Vinlanders are still more pious than we modern men are on average. At the same time, I doubt that Vinlanders allow religion to govern their lives completely, and would probably only be slightly more religious than OTL Canada or the US of the same time in OTL.

 

[Lord_Iggy]

Another point of interest is that the Church of Vinland (Lutheran) is probably more powerful than any one church in OTL Canada, due to the fact that Vinland's population overwhelmingly follows a single church. Thus, the nation lacks much of the multicultural and multi-religious flavour of early Canada. While Canada's history involved French and Irish Catholics, Anglicans, Presbyterians, Lutherans, and all other various protestant sects having to co-exist in one country, Vinland's religious history is predominately Lutheran, with significantly lesser Eastern Orthodox and Roman Catholic influences.

Flag of Chokweland:

Meaning of the flag:

Spoiler :

Red means that Chokweland is as fast as flames, yellow that Chokweland is as strong as storm and black means that it's armies bring death of the enemies.

All these places with such interesting differences from their OTL counterparts and then you have Iran which is basically the same, except slightly more open to the West.

 

[Terrance888]

Less impressive than I remembered. :3

Go with whatever you've got. I remembered specifically tailoring it away from St. Andrew's Cross because in CIEN Britain ed me over several times. Mostly by ignoring me when I needed them the most.

I think you're interpreting my allcaps as being remotely serious.

While the Vinlandic Lutheran Church is probably more influential than the Anglican Church of Canada around the same time, due to a greater proportion of adherents, its activities have not exactly mirrored those of the Roman Catholic Church.

See, I much prefer to let y'all players work this sort of thing out. I think this is probably an accurate sentiment. Also, Iggy, put yo stuff on the wiki.
