Swedish speaking Finns are a minority group in Finland often referred to as “Finlandssvenskar”. They speak Swedish with a Finnish dialect and are a remnant of the Swedish empire. Swedish is their native language. They make up around 5% of the Finnish population and live mostly around the Vasa region in Finland.

Alto i think that the flag is wrong... I mean i think that the flag shown is the "skånska flaggan" ( name in Swedish) and that the actual flag is a fusion of the Finnish and Swedish flag.

​@@albinbohlin6007no it's the right one. The flag of Scania have a thinner cross and different proportions. They are very similar though, and easy to mistake for each other.

The "I learned a lot today." is honestly one of my favourite bits. Satisfaction at a job well done.

I think it's pretty neat with how some of them have medieval/historical references to their past.

3:50 what is even funnier is that Americans from USA though it's ham-burger and they now creating things like cheese-burger - sandwich from Very famous Cheeseburg, Fish-burger - from Fishburg and Veggie burger from Vegestan capital Veggieburg

3:10 speaking from personal experience, the Kurds would absolutely use that flag if the sovereign state derived from Iraqi Kurdistan, which uses that particular flag. They are quite fond of it.

I very much enjoyed watching you look at flags, you should totally do more of these! Also if one specific subset of flags isn’t enough for an individual video, perhaps you could do a couple different interesting flag types together as one video?

I am a Bosnian Croat and i see that flag everywhere in my town but i always thought that it was a simplified version of the normal flag but now i know it isn't. thanks Drew!

Something interesting about culture flags is the Catalan world, most Catalan regions apart from catluña itself don’t use the actual Catalan flag (like the Catalan parts in Italy , just a island and the French parts)

1:30 that looks familiar

More of this!

I’m surprised the Acadian flag didn’t pop up. It’s a very French looking flag that represents the Cajuns that span from eastern Texas to Florida’s pan handle.

4:45 history with Hilbert uploaded a video about linguistic flags, one hour after this video was uploaded. Coincidence? I don't think so.

2:38 Yay, Berber finally mentioned!

3:35 That "mixup" happened because a lot of Ethnic Macedonians were influenced to boycott the census by the coutries parties, which resulted in those results. Also mostly the old "Vergina/Kutlesh star" flag is used as an ethnic flag.

Interestingly swastika in some form pops up in ancient cultures all over the world. There is one interesting theory saying that comet Encke was positioned "head on" towards Earth several thousand years ago, and since it was spinning, the jets from the tail created swastika-like shape in the night sky. The ancient chinese Han Dynasty silk comet atlas depicts one appearance of this comet as a perfect swastika.

You should do Conlang flags, that is, flags for constructed languages. The "old school" constructed languages, like Volapük, Esperanto, Ido and Occidental, all have had flags from the very beginning as a part of their visual identity, a trend which has continued for modern conlangs (like Novial, Interlingua, LFN, Folkspraak etc.)

One of my favourite things in this vague category but not a flag is the Singh / Sikh tartan. At some point in history some Scottish Sikh men wanted to partake in the culture of tartans and kilts but weren’t sure if they could wear certain tartans, so they designed their own. It’s widely recognised now. Anyone can register a new tartan but very few gain such widespread recognition. My friend created one for his wedding and there’s one for the Glasgow World Science Fiction Convention in Glasgow this summer.

Btw. Oldenburg isn't just a region, but also the name of several cities, towns, villages across the globe, even in the US and also a typical surname here in Germany. For example my surname is Oldenburg, even though I wasn't in any of those Oldenburg places.. I get the question alot, since I moved to Hannover, if I'm also from Oldenburg, because it's close by Hannover. But my grandparents were from Prussia and I was born in the german part of Pomerania, which also has a village called Oldenburg, which I've never been to. xD
