#us state flags

I love flags and countries to the point where I have a map, custom (handmade and original idea) country ball like thing, flag book, pages and pages of historical and real time and state flags, all recorded down on paper and drawn almost to scale. I even drew the hardest part of a hell lot of countries. for context, I started having a huge interest in country-related stuff since I was about 8 or 9.

I memorials the flags of all the countries and US states, some Malaysian states and Quebec specifically. i can indemnify the slightly more known organisation flags, and some ones that most people probably won’t know.

and u wanna know why I did all of this?

The Design

A red saltire on a white field, with the seal of Florida superimposed in the center

Most of the flag’s symbolism comes from the seal, as the saltire itself is mostly an homage to the state’s Spanish heritage.
