Flag and Anthem?

[Trevman]

Here is my improv anthem on the chat yesterday as best as I can remember although most people seem to be against an anthem:

Oh Apolytonia, oh Apolytonia,
How do we love thee
You came from the jungles to protect me.
Oh Apolytonia, oh Apolytonia,
I shall fight for thee
The land of the just and the free!

[kring]

I vote flag and anthem.

We could use some of the other flags to represent cities, regions, and groups (whether political, guild, whatever) as well as for officials (elected, appointed, military) or even personal like the heraldry that has been around for long time.

If we get too many flags going, we might need a Minister of Heraldry to keep track and avoid duplication and things like that.

Should that be the case, I'd be willing to run for that position. I'm pretty good at organizing and such, so I think I'd be pretty good at the job. Though I doubt it will come to that...

NO no no please no position like that

Anthem would be too complicated, but OK for the flag.

Yellow - because that's our Civ color.

Banana - symbol

Black + Green = Supposedly egyptian colors (even though their flag has red and not green)

white - our democracy

stars - something.



Now there are several versions:

Red instead of yellow = war ensign.
Sky Blue instead of yellow = peace ensign.
Orange = victory ensign / Trade office
Grey = mourning ensign / Science office
Green = Military ensign / Defense office
Purple = Presidential ensign
(Turquise = Domestic office)
(Pink = Culture office)

Interesting ideas.
I like the flag too.
