from /r/vexillology Top comment: I recolored the flags of the Turkic nations to feature turquoise blue, which has historical and cultural significance to the Turkic peoples. The name turquoise even comes from the French word for Turkish. Also, I’m aware that the flag of East Turkestan is already a blue version of the Turkish flag, but just play along.

Anglosphere flag/political compass of countries

Unfortunately, both of them miss out a hekk of a lot of countries. But that's kind of unavoidable without making the flag look absolutely ridiculous so  ¯\_(ツ)_/ ¯

The meaning of the flag.

laughing because this is so true

Tell me what you think!

New York’s current flag is simply a seal on a bedsheet, and its not even a good seal this time like Virginia or Oklahoma. For a start, I knew I had to incorporate orange and blue due to the states Dutch heritage, as well as the current colors of New York City, the 11 stars stand for, you guessed it, New York was the 11th state. The Empire State Building, one of New York’s most iconic landmarks, is where it gets tricky. Obviously this kind of centers the flags meaning on New York City, despite that the state is a lot more than just that. I couldn’t really find another symbol that represented New York so well however, so I went with it.
