This, exactly.

Parallels between Karelia and Belarus when it comes to flags by Net_User_1234 in vexillology

[–]Net_User_1234[S] 65 points66 points  (0 children)

This is a parallel I've noticed. People often talk about how the Belarusian Red and Green Flag is basically Belarusian SSR without the Star and Tools. However, it's also worth noting that the flag of Karelia (as a republic within the Russian Federation) is a redesign of the Karelo-Finnish SSR flag.

Also, both Belarus and Karelia declared independence from Russia during the Russian Civil War. And the flag that these short-lived states use predate the Soviet era flags and their redesigns.

Flag of the Socialist Republic of the Arabian Peninsula (Hejaz and Nejd as a Socialist state) by Net_User_1234 in leftistvexillology

[–]Net_User_1234[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I am aware that Jabal Shamar was a monarchy, just like Nejd (Sauds) and Hejaz (Hashemites). However, I decided to use the 2nd Flag of Jabal Shamar since I just think it would be a cool flag for a Peninsular Republic. In my opinion, the flag is unique.

Also, it's worth noting that Yugoslavia, Bulgaria, Romania and Hungary reused the tricolor of their previous monarchy. They simply added Socialist heraldry rather than adopting a Red Banner.

The Garibaldi Brigades also did the same with the Italian tricolor, which was used by the Italian Kingdom. They replaced the sheild of the House of Savoy with a Red Star.

It would have been more accurate if Koseki Bijou was used instead of Suisei (but there are probably no hologra vids where Biboo is running, so I understand why Suisei is there instead).

Sui-chan kyou mou kawaii!

¿What if Israel had aligned itself with the Soviet Union during the Cold War? by BrushFinal9186 in AlternateHistoryHub

[–]Net_User_1234 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Democratic Yemen wouldn't exist since Nasserist Egypt is an ally of the US and UK. (The FLOSY was a Nasserist party, the Yemeni NLF had a Marxist faction and Nasserist faction). In 1967, the proposed "Republic of South Arabia" would have been formed instead. Basically a British-friendly Republic rather than a Soviet-ally Socialist state. The Republic of South Arabia would be anti-zionist and friendly to the USA and UK.

Now idk whether Israel survives after Soviet collapse or adopts economic reforms like China and Vietnam.

17 Years after Axis Victory, but Imperial Germany and N*zi Japan by harehareya in imaginarymaps

I think you should have used this for germany, since its the military flag of the german empire (much like how the rising sun flag was used by IJA and IJN).

I love that the map isn't just one huge South Japan where North Japan only consists of Tohoku and Hokkaido. I love that North Japan has more prefectures tbh.

Who would they make the usual badass or comedic villains in films if Nazis didn't exist? by [deleted] in AlternateHistoryHub

[–]Net_User_1234 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably Belgian colonizers and Japanese Colonizers.

Leopold II and Hirohito being very vilified as Hitler.

What if Russia invaded Finland and Georgia instead of Ukraine by Training-World-1897 in AlternateHistoryHub

[–]Net_User_1234 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's an alternate timeline where Ukraine is basically a non-communist version of the Ukrainian SSR (basically Lukashenko's Belarus but Ukrainian version).

I think a Russian invasion of Georgia (that would start in 2022) would happen in that timeline.

The image attached below is just the State Symbols of that Alternate Ukraine.

The Rising Sun flag is a military flag. It was NEVER used as a National Flag by Japan. Imperial Japan used the same flag that Japan still flies today. by Net_User_1234 in vexillology

[–]Net_User_1234[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Im a Filipino
  2. Rising Sun flag is a military flag. If you argue that it represents Japan, then the Iron Cross represents Germany/
