The "confederate flag" isn't what you think it is... and you probably won't ever look at the flag of #Georgia the same.

Bolivia is one of the only countries to have two official flags. This one, and the Wiphala a bad-ass rainbow checkered flag which represents the indigenous people of the region. https://t.co/I8BYwnZeLG

She can’t even do this correctly. 🤦🏻

The stars would be on the bottom left if you’re flying it upside down, you absolute clown.

If more states keep updating their #flags to better designs, @SouthwestAir is gonna need to get busy!
#Maine #Minnesota

@GovofCO I totally agree…EXCEPT that some signs have the opening of the C touching the white stripe and some are inside. I did an entire video about this and would love to help you fix your flag law!

Today I learned that the Mexican flag 🇲🇽 should always have the coat of arms positioned vertically (ie. the eagle should never be laying down).

So when hanging a Mexican flag, a special flag needs to be made with the charge rotated 90 degrees like this one. 🤯🇲🇽

This thread says it all. Sad day for the @NorthStarFlagMN.

I went through the 2000+ submissions for #Minnesota’s new flag so you didn’t have to.

There’s great designs, funny stuff, and a clear trend…

This scrappy flag company is turning two years old. One of the most surprising things about this journey is getting our flags into over 150 stores around North America (and making so many friends along the way)!

By now you’ve probably seen the Russian “No War” flag. Russian activists removed the red stripe from the national flag as a resistance to the bloodshed and Putin.

We made 10 available…for now: https://t.co/y3SRj9cZkt

Always good to see this #cityflag loved by all people of #Chicago - it’s what Greater Sydney does not have, as such (what unites us?). @gscsydney @greatersydcomm @ResilientSydney @sydney_sider

Our first @YouTube video is out!

I weather the cold to explain everything you'd ever want to know about the Chicago flag (and some you don't).
