9:52 that redesighn looks like the albany flag(new yorks capital)
4:33 is that west virginia highlited😂
This video was very good but there is one problem, that wasn't the flag of the Kingdom of Bosnia, (its very similar) that one with crosses was made by Serbs to fabricate Bosnian history, the real one uses the "trolist"
British Columbia is a master at municipal flags.

USA state flags be like: 🟦
i love south australia definitely NO BIAS, oh and im from south australia
If a State took its official seal and slapped it on a curtain... maybe actually try designing a real flag. Looking at you, my home State of Missouri.
Many run away from the bri.ish just to be followed by the btrit ish. There are huge evil in British. Now why USA have independence day 4 July? I wonder
The brish?
very nice
why so many with flower's, that cant be the symbolism of all of the states. Also, Texas has the best flag, not New Mexico.
Okay that Louisiana one made me shout oh my god oh my god out loud. Unbelievable q
Great video and informational. I am Romanian, and am going to get the coat of arms tatted on me. This information makes the symbol all the more meaningful.
The only change I would make to the Oklahoma redesign is maybe red for the bottom half instead of green. We have red dirt and not a lot of places can claim the same.
As a Californian I was about ready to throw hands for three seconds when you removed the text 😅
I've been following Maine flag discourse for years, but I've never heard anyone talk about that symbolism in the pine tree design! It's kind of cool, even if it is likely a coincidence. Though I will note that the new design that was officially selected a few days ago does have some (confirmed deliberate) symbolism of its own: sixteen branches for sixteen counties.
This state brought to you by PEPSI CO : 3:34
Nebraska should use that flag 8:14
When I saw your New Jersey Flagg on the thumbnail, I thourgt, that this is for New York, because New Amsterdam was there.
Wow great video, you’re super underrated! You got my sub :)
@@ghosty28 thank you Ghosty :) I appreciate it 👍🏻
I'm from Nevada and I love your redesign ❤
The Dutch Cape Colony
as a ukrainian i can say this is awesome.
Everyone is so scared of the “Confederate history” of some of the flags. Lord have mercy.
Nice flag!
sorry to nit pic, but at 2:30 you got a tasmanian tiger up. they went extinct in 1936. it's still a really good thing to have on the flag, to commemorate the animal. but it's not the Tasmanian devil.
I know what you want girl,let me be the one to hold your hand forever ♾
The American colonization society
what you said about germany is not true, germany has an INSANELY strong regionalism. people feel most often more connected to their state than to germany itself. Where I live, I see like 2 german flags and 30 state flags in my immediate neighbourhood alone!

I'm so tired of people ripping on Red Ensigns but then praising Quebec's flag which is literally just based on the french equivalent of the Red Ensign. Canada was the first place that the use of the Red Ensign on LAND was popularized, everyone else that did it later got it from us. Land-use Red Ensigns are an extremely Canadian thing, even the Brits wouldn't generally use a Red Ensign on land. It was something that developed overseas, specifically North America and perpetuated by Loyalists in Canada after the revolution. The American flag is also based on the Red Ensign because it was an extremely important flag to basically everyone in North America for a long time before it became popular outside of maritime use anywhere else. Ontario and Manitoba having nearly identical arms is more of a problem than the fact that they both use Red Ensigns.
Eyo cool, no sabia q Zamora tenia una bandera asi
Good video
thats amazing
you should redesign some country flags
I suggest you talk about the coats of arms of Spain and Italy.
I was thinking these flag redesigns are great until you got to my state, Iowa, I thought, don't touch my flag... and if all you wanted to do was remove the word "Iowa" I could agree with that.
The Flag used in the video describing Fremont city is the battle flag of General Fremont
that 'new' PA is garabge and fails to really hold much meaning to the state or any state symbolzime at all at least put keystone on it
If one day I was a US President I want some US States who had bad flags to change their flag
RAHHH ASSYRIA MENTIONED!!! KHEYA ASHUR
As someone who lives in Brooklyn I forgot all about upstate and thought the city would be centralized in the flag 🤦🏾♀️
also maybe im just biased but i think we have the best of the seal on a bedsheet flags, but then again its still not good
1100 views in 1 year wow this is underrated
good flag for pennsylvania but there should probably be a keystone somewhere
Bro ruined the NJ flag😭
