  • A petition to the powers that be.

    You have various flags from nonnation states like Wales and Scotland but there are no state flags available here at poly. I would like to see that changed. California is the world's sixth largest economy yet I can't wave a Californian flag; you don't have to let the fly over states have their flags but you should let the big dogs recieve their dues.

    I just noticed we have a flag for Greenland which is a colony of Denmark. How low can we go? I want a Californian flag.

          Wales is a country (of sorts ), California isn't.

              I'd like to complain about flags even though any possible flag I would fly are already in the flag database.
              I'm building a wagon! On some other part of the internets, obviously (but not that other site).

                Strange ladies sitting in castles distributing kingdoms is no basis for a system of govemment. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical apolytonic ceremony. You can't expect to wield supreme executive power just 'cause some watery tart threw a Windsor at you! I mean. If I went around saying I was a country just because some moistened bint had lobbed a wignut at me, they'd put me away.

                    Wales and Scotland are countries. Sportsmen in many sports represent Wales and Scotland at international level (the world cup, commonwealth games, etc.).

                    A decision making body isn't the classification. Are the EU now one country because the EU have some laws that trump national laws? The Welsh Assembly and Scottish Parliament decide some things, the UK Parliament decide others, and the EU yet more.

                    Is there any international body, competition or agreement where California represents itself? Wales and Scotland do, because they're nations. California isn't.

                      Wales is a Principality, nothing more.

                            Historically, the owners answer no to these kind of requests... because that would mean they would have to add at least 50 flags

                              It's more sensible to remove the Welsh and Scottish flags.
