Giggshood flag is quite easy to understand. The G stands for Giggs and H stands for Hood. The first and still running president is named Giggs so thats where the name origins from. The 3 stars symbols the 3 big mountains in Giggshood that runs like a stripe across the country just like on the flag.

The flag is a symbol for all this microstate. The light red in the left and right of the flag represents the courage of all the Gozitanians The globe in the background represents that Gozitania must work hand in hand with all the people in the world. The cross is an important part of Gozitania's history as it also symbolises the Gozitanian unique identity. The G letter is the inital of Gozitania. The blue waves in the top-left and the bottom-right of the flag represent Gozitania as a centre for technology. For more details check out the official announcement of new flag.

Although the ancient tribes fought several wars amongst them, the Lunians are really peaceful nowadays and are animal loving.

Maccha-Brugia


This flag was adapted right after the Maccha-Arjan war and NSC 16. The black border represents the war, and seeing as it's on the left side, it means that it's behind us.

The symbolism behind the spiral is that the 2 former nations, Maccha-Bently and Brugia now really are 1 nation.
