If you don't like this flag you are a C*%t

I was watching the BBC’s recap of the World Cup so far this morning, which included short segments of each opening ceremony.

Thought I might be mistaking things so I sought out the Uzbekistan vs Portugal match opening.

The flag of Uzbekistan, as presented to the world audience by the Uzbek football team and by FIFA doesn’t seem to match with the version on Wikipedia, and I can’t seem to find any evidence of a change in its design on any English, Uzbek, or Russian language sources.

The original design, which is featured on Wikipedia, has a similar style crescent moon to the kind used by the Maldives, Mauritania, and Singapore, whereas the design shown here in massive form clearly has a more Turkey/Libyan style shape, more common amongst crescent moon designs.

Is this now the official flag of Uzbekistan?

The President of Uzbekistan’s own website clearly shows massive banner images where the flag’s old design is featured prominently, but it feels weird to have such a massive discrepancy between the flag you use at home and the flag which is broadcast to millions of people across the world?

Yesterday a small police convoy passed by me and the Black BMW Limousine had a flag on the front right side. The image ist not 100 % accurate, more like a helping idea.

I made this flag for Virginia for a Pax Historia Preset I am working on. Essentially The USA has collapsed, the states gain independence. Eventually, Virginia, Maryland and Delaware Unite to form the United Commonwealth of Potomaca

Question: I'm a white dude in Canada that lives in a neighborhood with a large Carribean population. Would it be awkward or considered cultural appropriation if I hung this in my window?

Found this , believed to be, a vintage 48 star American flag, how much could this be worth? Got it in an estate sale in Illinois. The person who sold it to me said it was passed down from an old lady who lived in the house before going to a nursing home in 1960, also to note it starts with a white stripe…

(Alternative history) A fictional flag used by an early Vietnamese republic state which overthrew Nguyen Dynasty in 1843.

alright so this is the flag of Tycelia, and there is a LOOOONG story behind it:

A long, long time ago, in a Minecraft server far, far away me and my friends created a Minecraft survival world. And then a couple ppl started griefing and the others united to stop it and we formed Tycelia. We walled the griefers off onto an island, and I was crowned Emperor because 80% of it (including my coronation :D) was literally all my idea. We expanded a ton, more nations were made, nations died, and to this day the Empire of Tycelia is still the largest nation on the server. I am the only og player left too. In fact I might make a server out of a copy of this world one day. When I do I'll comment it here, I suppose. Anyways, this is also my flag design too.

And that, kids, is how you become monarch of a digital Empire :D

Thoughts on the flag or origins?
