Flags From Possible

States, inspired by social media that try to control it at the same time, begin to do all administrative work online. Even courts are online nowadays and people consider information systems as secured. Financial transactions are being made online, teaching sessions are being developed towards distance learning in the schools. State affairs can be solved through machines that are similar to ATMs and relevant documents were being supplied through these machines. As a result of this, the government types have started differing. States cared about technology as they were also using it for controlling the society. Different types of government styles brought this: there’s no need to be in a country to be a citizen of that country. cloud.land is such an idea, it is standing as a separate state with its citizens from all around the world. Defending the sancityof the common mind, cloud.land is keen to create a new world with its self built defence mechanism.

Republic of Pacific Nuclear Islands

Once called as Marshall Islands, Republic of Pasific Nuclear Islands was a place where the U.S.A. have carried out 67 nuclear weapon tests between the years 1946 to 1958. Later ruled by U.S.A., the island remained as the ‘most poisoned place on earth’ by far. Confronting its past, people of the island found the solution to the full independence in their previous experiences. Their economy grew by the black market export of thermonuclear weapons of their own production. They were freed from the U.S.A. government and declared their full independence. They have ignored and challenged any declared agreement regarding the production of such weapons and the country became lonelier and self-enlcosed each day. Also known as the second North Korea case, R.P.N.I. did not manage to apply its advancement in technology to the use of daily life. They were militarily powerful, but humanly quite poor.

Union

The growing numbers of world population brought depletion of natural resources. Cities growing without planning, wrong sustainability policies, uncontrolled corporate world and corruption in countries brought the world into an uninhabitable place. Wars erupting between countries willing to control the water supplies ended millions of lives. Large societies, stuck in habitable zones due to the broken ecological balance had to lower their living standarts and were in deep devotion. The advanced technology was abandoned and ignored as a result of the eruption of wars over water resources. The humanity used its remaining scientific notion over the artificial food and health reinforcements. However, the artificial nutrition caused big epidemic and death in large numbers. When the epidemic was mostly over, there was no authority nor a government team reign. A small group of one million people were alive, who were never infected or had the immune to protect themselves. It was thought that the humanity had all these trouble due to the explosion of population. As a sudden drop in industrialization, the ecological system started to come back to balance as it allowed the necessary climate and food to grow. The only alive group of people named their new state as ‘Union’. Their main targets were the equal distribution of wealth and limiting the population growth (with strong hand if necessary). In the future, there would be no single extra person over one million. The ones who lived would have it all. In order to maintain the stability, the Union choose a totalitarian path. Any economical production was also made by the organs of Union itself. The individuals had it all however by going into very tight and strong education system and some of the mandatory work forced by the Union. In the end, everything was for having everything stay the same.

No Borders

Nobody guessed that the world system would change when the humanity discovered teleporting by using brain power. When the borders remained functionless, what they represented also disappeared. People changed their locations whenever they wanted to, and their way of life (also their moral values) would change accordingly. This change in humanity was considered as a part of their evolution and every new generation put on top of this skill. They first called this teleportation however later, they stated calling it bouncing. The reason to this was that they couldn’t find any relation to the beams or light. No countries were left on the planet, only some little institutions were left to organize the common work such as economy and food. Humans prepared guides to make bouncing even easier for others. As a result of this, several systems appeared to remind people about locations and arranging meetings between them. The most common system was the one that had the continent names the same as our times showing them as latitudes and meridians. Also, each coordinate was marked by a flag. This way, the flags turned into little dots on the map. The role of symbolization was given to signboards placed on the front doors. There were no longer chants being singed infront of these flags.

Karhide

The country of Karhide, on Ursula Le Guin’s book: The Left Hand of Darkness is located on a planet called Winter. Winter (Gethen), very similar to our planet is a very cold one with a half-polar climate even on its warmest times. The planet consisted of a society with a hermaphrodits – an androgen society. The planet, where gender is not a statue symbol nor a power tool, humans changed their gender as in the menstruation period of women. Such that, a person can become a mother as well as fathers for other children. The space between ‘friendship’ and ‘darling’ is meaningless, the tendency on dualism defining human thought is less, the duality of humans’ powerful / weak, protector / protected, ruler / ruled, owner / owned and similar is much weaker. Ignorance, now and presence is much more significant than progress, on this planet. Karhide, on of the states on the planet is an anarchist kingdom and a conservative one but also having a tolerant society. The climate, cold weather conditions are always more important matters than possible wars and competitions. This struggle have made the Karhide people a very patient group that made the best out of what they have.

Republic of İzmir

The long awaited dream became real. The Aegean coast line is separated from Turkey and declared independence. A country was born with its capital as Izmir. After the celebrations that took place for three months, organized by Izmir National Assembly, II. MKA was elected as president of the republic. In order to get into the country, being at least 50% Turkish was essential due to the law. The tourists and visitors were being questioned as ‘‘Do Turks have friends other than but Turks?’’ Any citizens who called the new government as fascist were deported. The world fascist was banned until a second order.

African Union

The lands of Africa were used by the colonist countries for years. The natural resources were consumed, the land was left for poverty, diseases and wars. When there was nothing left to consume, the region was left alone. Their economy soon after started getting back to shape as African countries stood in solidarity. An agreement was made between all of its countries and African Union was found.

The socialist policies, emerged after the global economical crises changed the consumption patterns. The companies with industrial production by carrying out unfair usage of energy resources were limited and controlled. As a result, affordable products were out of market soon enough. Only the products for basic needs were being manufactured. Personal cars, fabricated foods, look alike cloths were out of interest. Individuals changed their position from being consumers to producers. The daily work was done by manpower and long distances were reached by vehicles without engines. The society put forward a system where every individual was self sustainable but getting help when needed. Physical health and individualism became crucial. Guns and uniforms were no longer a symbol of power, it was the ‘biceps’.

The daily life was almost ruined due to wars and poverty. Large numbers of people started migrations as they were making do with their last harvest. They formed solidarity as moving together in large groups. They were camping in abandoned cities they visited, took any supplies they could find, gained energy and moved on. All the children went missing in one these camps. Mothers – loosing hope – fathers exhausted started searching everywhere. They followed their children’s voices between the trees. No one has ever seen such happy screams since months. When they reached the source of the voices, they found their children in an egg factory, while they were playing games, throwing eggs to each other. The factory was abandoned recently and in working condition. The chickens were left in the darkness but had their food and did their duty. Such number of eggs were enough for all, although nobody wanted to leave this abundance. They expected richness from this factory instead of the soil and moved into the place. For generations, this factory was never forgotten.

New State of The Islamic Law 

The young generation, who brought in a new approach into the Islam rules, opposed to their traditional leaders. The followers of “New State of The Islamic Law” aimed to impose the basic principles, love and positive feelings into modern world and Islam. This new state’s followers were immediately unwanted in the Muslim territory as they were quite natural with sex, gay relations and using drugs. A new war raged in the Middle East Region. They won a quite bloody victory with their supporters from all around the world. Their philosophy, based on love and compassion were struggling against this hatred – it was hard for them to choose whether to stay natural, violent or tolerant. After the war, the new state turned back to being a traditional hard Islam country. 

Yeni Fıkıh Devleti

Psi-Christ

The human skill, once called as the sixth sense became even greater with every generation. Newborns came with telepathic powers. The buildings became transparent, whispers were gone. As people couldn’t hide their thoughts, they began not to think. For sure, they couldn’t succeed. As the private life concept was no longer valid, individuals turned into little stones of the social system. The psychological tension over the individuals brought down the social life to zero. Any kind of discussion or idea would lead to marginalization, discrimination and chaos. The society then turned to strict rules and their religion. The road to social acceptance was through leaving individualism behind. Even free thinking was forbidden, let alone acting differently. The society has left behind the concept of tolerance. They started destroying everything that stood in their way. Sin thinkers, questioners, incompatible ones were all gone and the rest was a country with no spirit.

Psi-Christ

İnsanların önce altıncı his olarak adlandırdığı yetenekleri her nesilde daha da gelişti. Önce birbirlerinin duygularını paylaşmaya sonra da düşüncelerini duymaya başladılar. Herkes telepatik güçlerle doğuyordu. Tüm binalar şeffaflaşmış, fısıltılar yok olmuştu. İnsanlar düşüncelerini saklayamadıkları için düşünmemeye çalıştılar. Tabi ki başarılı olamadılar. Özel hayat bitmiş ve insanlar toplum düzenindeki basit çarklara dönüşmüşlerdi. Bireylerin üzerlerinde hissettikleri psikolojik gerilim sosyal hayatı neredeyse yok etti. Herhangi bir düşünce toplum içinde dışlanmaya ve kargaşaya yol açabiliyordu. İnsanlar yaşayabilmek için katı kurallara ve dinlere sarıldılar. Toplumda kabul görebilmek tüm bireyselliğinden vazgeçmekten geçiyordu. Farklı şekilde davranmak şöyle dursun, düşünmek bile cezalandırılıyordu. Linç kültürü oluşmuş, insanlar hoşgörüye dair her şeyi kaybetmişti. Acı çekmek bir erdeme dönüşmüştü. İnsanlar yoldan çıktığını düşündüğü herkesi yok etmeye başladılar. Günahı düşünenleri, sorgulayanları, uyumsuzları farkettikleri anda linç ettiler. Geriye de ruhsuz bir ülke kaldı.

Çöllanda

Their roots being originated in Latin America, Desertlanders never believed much in the bureaucracy as well as governmental institutions. From the beginning, they secured their protection themselves. This society believed in limitless freedom and never imposed any restrictions to its people. Morals, religions and traditions were unheard in this place. Plants like marijuana were allowed for consumption and production. Having also no limitations over psychological issues, crime rate in Desertland was very low. Whenever somebody thought of commiting a crime, the closest person to the location, with a gun would carry out the punishment straight away. Even with its wild methods, Desertland and its people were well and happy. 

Çöllanda

Kökenleri Latin Amerika’ya dayanan Çöllandalılar devlet kurumlarına ve bürokrasiye hiç bir zaman inanmadılar. Kendi güvenliklerini en başından beri kendileri sağladılar. Sonsuz özgürlüğe inanan bu insanlar kimseyi kısıtlamadılar. Töreler, dinler ve gelenekler burada duyulmamış şeylerdi. Marijuana gibi bitkiler bu bölgede özgürce yetiştirilir ve kullanılırdı. Psikolojik olarak da kısıtlanmayan Çöllanda’da suç oranı çok düşüktü. Zaten biri suç işlemeye kalktığında en yakındaki silahlı kişi hemen ceza kesmeye girişiyordu. Biraz vahşi de olsa Çöllanda topraklarında mutlu bir yaşam devam etmektedir.

Not Enough Information Found Regarding The Object 

‘‘Today at 36:47, a light producing object that is thought to require a large energy resource was excavated and found in a wooden box in the Old World Excavations together with a surface of hundreds of different wooden fiber and a colored cloth, their purpose of use is unknown. Examining the signs no the wooden fibers, the experts state that the box was buried in the year 2310. Opposite to the general understanding in the Old World, it can be proven that there was a complex communication system within all living things, as well as having advanced machinery and technology’’.

Kepler Mission

In order to maintain further and required information regarding the earth-like planets that had been discovered by the Kepler telescope, drones were sent to these locations. A human carrying mission wasn’t planned as it was found risky for humans. These vehicles were specially designed for the years long trip. When a habitable planet would be found, new humans could be produced from the DNAs sent in these vehicles and this would prevent the extinction of the human species. A gift was sent to these new civilizations as well as these flags, for a proof of the history. The arrow, for the new explorations, stars for the worlds 6 continents and red for the history of humans. Even though this mission would succeed, the survivors of the world never be able to hear about this. 

Kepler Görevi

Us

Human lifespan developed at least 3 times as science and robotics advanced. Humans remained physically healthy as they have grown old. They became wiser while getting older and they soon discovered the repetitions in human life. Conflicts of generations, political schemes, religious conflicts were seen as non-beneficial and destructive. The generations, witnessing the history became less greedy. The economical hysteria weakened as humans become more introvert. Values like peace and happiness became the absolute necessity. Having long life spans and the time to think about life made humans wiser and more individualists. They preferred to stay on lonely when compared to finding themselves in groups. The people fixed all of their needs by themselves and became less attached to earthly things. This flag belonged to the last society on the planet who chose to live in large groups.

Paresya

As in the description of Paul Lafargue’s “Le Droit à la Paresse”, The Right to Be Lazy is inspired by the Laziness Rights and had grown into an even larger state: the Lazy Party, surrounding the socialism cluster and being a very popular political view. As a result of the working conditions that went beyond physical and psychological limits, the working class whom could never receive what they deserved, started uprisings that took months. A socialist government was born after the resignation of the existing government who had lost its power against these demonstrations. The ice-cream, a symbol and main theme for the demonstrations, representing the humanly life and wealth later became the flag of the country. It’s not considered as a good thing to work over 4 hours in this country. Even though being a very productive country with productive people, Paresya is also known as the country of lazy people, for having their Laziness Rights in the constitution.
