it's not a real custom flag, it's the flag of Kazakhstan. i've chosen this flag because my cousin has sent me the flag from the USA. i don't know why and where he got this one from. tounge.gif

i like the eagle and the sun which are perfect to represent a free nation. smile.gif

they didn't have it on nationalstates.net, so i had to upload it. biggrin.gif

*edit*

wow you have to check out the Kazakh National Games!wow.gif

</span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Quote </td></tr><tr><td id="QUOTE">KYZ KUU ("Overtake the girl") - young boys and girls are participants in this game. The girl on the horse does her best to gallop from the young man but as soon as the latter tries to overtake (approach) her she lashes him with a whip. If - up to a certain plece - the young boy fails to overtake her she would "reward" him with whipping again. If he is a success he earns a kiss.

AUDARYSPAK ("Wrestling on horseback") - this kind of national sports requires skills both in hand-to-hand fighting and in trick riding. In fact two men fight while on horseback. Wins the one that brings his adversary down of his horse.

KUMIS ALU ("Pick up the coin"). The essence of the game is that while galloping at full speed a young man should pick up a silver lingot oof the ground - such had been condition of the game in old days. Nowadays the lingot is replaced by a handkerchief. This contest particularly impressed Alexander the Great when he visited Central Asia. According to historians' evidence on watching kumis alu he exclaimed "That's a sort of training worthy of a warrior on horseback".

KOKPAR ("Fighting for a goat's carcass"). A most popular game. It stems from an ancient custom according to which one who wants to get rid of all evil, should sacrifice a goat. Not infrequently taking part in thegame are up to 1,000 horsemen. The game unfolds on an almost infinite steppe range. On the opposite ends of an immense field they arrange goals of teams - adversaries. It is into them that the symbolic carcass of the goat should be thrown, while the throw proper is preceded by a desperate flight betwenn the teams to get hold of the carcass.

I was (unpleasantly) surprised when I joined this game to find nations talking about anti-matter warheads, robotic warriors, catgirls and dragons...I guess I was just expecting real world type nations, not sci-fi or fantasy ones.

The Borderlands of Pukko

This game is probably quite lame and pointless I recon, no wars, no nothing except un ratings..

But I think it could be at least some meaning in it if all 17 (or so) nations mentioned here joined up the malden group, I'm on my way.

btw, [TU]$33ker, I spent some time looking at flags, and at once decided that I wanted the Kazakhstan flag, but it was not in the flaglist.. - thanks for reading my thoughts smile.gif

@The Borderlands of Pukko:

The Lyran Commonwealth will move to the Malden Islands Group after posting this official announcement. Due to our two official languages this message is kept bilingual.

Das Lyranische Commonwealth wird in die Malden Islands Group ziehen, nachdem diese offizielle Bekanntmachung gesendet wurde. Aufgrund unserer zwei Amtsprachen ist diese Nachricht zweisprachig gehalten.

Kingdom of Norden

</span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Quote </td></tr><tr><td id="QUOTE">

UN Category: Iron Fist Socialists

Civil Rights: Excellent Economy: Weak Political Freedoms: Few

Location: Malden Islands Group

The Kingdom of Norden is a small, socially progressive nation, notable for its absence of drug laws. Its compassionate, cynical population of 9 million are ruled with an iron fist by the socialist government, which grants its people the freedom to do whatever they like so long as it doesn't involve getting richer than anybody else or challenging the government.

The enormous government is mainly concerned with Social Welfare, although Education and Defence are on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 36%, but much higher for the wealthy. A small private sector is dominated by the Trout Farming industry.

Euthanasia is legal, citizens select which government department gets their income tax dollars each year, organ donation is compulsory, and the elk is a protected species. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown. Norden's national animal is the elk, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the krona.

Its a weird mix in the Malden Islands Group. We have a Corrupt Dictatorship, the Iron Fist Socialists, a Father Knows Best State, a Left-Leaning College State, and two Scandinavian Liberal Paradises. And I'm not even Scandinavian. wink.gif

Alright, the hardworking people of the Free Land of Leathoria have moved to the Malden Islands group piece by piece. Hopefully the change in climate dosen't kill off the Tropical Moosesesesesees.
