Could we have the Iroquois league flag available for our profile?

Interesting. What Iroquois ways would that be?

You don't want to go there, she's about to give you a twilight zone version of American history, starting with the Indians taught the Dutch democracy and going from there!

Someone called the BS-team? My aren't we friendly again.

Tniem, start with Thanksgiving (not exclusively Iroquois of course, but they have a zillion agricultural feasts).

Ribannah, Daaaarrrrhling, Markos and Dan can be quite amenable, when approched by (pleasant) PM or E-mail. They like the personaal touch. The formula is to associate "Get favor done" with "pleasant things standing out from the usual drivel". marcos also appear to apply a paitience test. He lets request sit a a que for several days or more, and if the requestor gets impatient, they get **** canned.

Thanks Lefty, I know.
This is, by the way, very Iroquois by Markos.

I don't believe that Ribannah is being "impatient" or even "unpleasant"; she is just answering the questions placed on this thread by other Apolyoners.

Of course she could just ignore the thread for a week or so, but to what end? I believe she has good reasons for requesting the Iroquoian (League) flag and IMO, she's doing a good job justifying her reasoning to fellow Apolyoners.

OK I think this should just about be good enough.

yours is better than mine, mine got distorted when i shrank the picture, i think it would be a cool addition to the flag group

[tniem]

So your telling me that Thanksgiving is a bigger societal impact than what Europeans brought to North America?

(I am not flaming or trying to start an argument. I just really want to understand your claim that

Americans were assimilated more into the Iroquois ways than the other way around, so let's just dump the flag of the USA instead

)

You'll be sorry..........

[KrazyHorse]

I said written INTO their constitution allowing a specific country to step into them

So Cuba wasn't a country between 1902 and 1959?

[KrazyHorse]

Or Panama...

[KrazyHorse]

The Iroquois were included in Civ3

How 'bout that for stating why it's necessary, Markos?

[Skanky Burns]

Good point, Froggy.

That was just for starters.
But why don't you tell us about something the Iroquois adopted.

(No, you're not flaming. It's a valid and relevant question and in fact a very interesting topic.)
