    In Iroquois legend, the confederacy was formed when all the tribes of the confederacy put there weapons under a great pine tree and peace was achieved (overly simplified, look it up though, great legend) so the pine tree and the 4 flags might symbolize peace among them (as historically they all fought and were enemies)

    That's a cool idea! Maybe you could talk (or write) to your city's mayor or city council members to see if they like the idea too, then maybe talk to your local newspaper or public library about starting a flag contest. I've never tried it myself before, but that might be one way to do it. :)

    Do you have a Nepalese flag from there and if so, how is it? The picture they have looks like it's really distorted and out of proportion, but the "special event" flags, which seem like they should be pretty much the same thing, look a lot better. Does yours look in proportion or is it stretched out like their picture? (I'm not from Nepal, I just like their flag)

They divided it into north and south Cameroon. The southern part chose to join former French Cameroon when they got Independence, but the north remained in Nigeria.

    Despues de todo lo que hizo ETA no se como teneis tan poca vergüenza... Y lo peor de todo es que una independencia no seria bueno ni para vosotros ya que perderiais basicamente vuestro estatus actual economico que por cierto es la puta polla. No tiene ningun sentido que en pleno siglo XXI haya movimientos secesionitas en Europa.
