Vivian Darkbloom posted:Is it true that for many states, the flags date back to the Civil War when they were used as regimental banners? That would seem to track with the whole seal-on-blue thing.

Worthless. Doesn't include the flag of Bahrain, and how could anyone trust such a chart after such a grievous omission?

Count Roland posted:I've been assuming that Christian is a generic term that encompasses Catholicism, Orthodox churches as well all the assorted Protestant denominations. Sure there is lot of extremely dubious religious nitpicking, but did you know that the Roman Catholic church is actually decended from the Cult of Baal in Bablyon?

I recently visited the US Naval Academy and this flag code was on the wall in a bathroom. Surely this is the right place for some bright spark to figure out what it means?

At least the flag of Loudoun County isn't boring. To give a bit of context, Loudon is an outer suburb of DC neighboring Maryland. So maybe something rubbed off when it comes to flag design. Loudoun County posted:Loudoun's flag is adapted from its coat of arms, modeled after the coat of arms of John Campbell, the Fourth Earl of Loudoun, colonial governor of Virginia after whom the county was named.
