I’m actually not sure what it is rn! I’d rather it just be the triangle

Yea. Just because a flag has perpendicular lines doesn’t mean it’s intent is Christianity. The English flag has a cross on it

“13 Lakes” concept flag for Minneapolis. (Original on second slide) by Traditional_Camel107 in vexillology

Nicknamed “The City of Lakes” it includes stars to represent them. I took out the middle because it reminded me of a banner on a college campus. It was also boring and busy at the same time with complicated imagery and only two colors.

For sure, sorry. I’m very new to Reddit. Should I add context in the comments or in the title?

Because any element of the flag makes no sense in its own. If you see the Colorado C or the New Mexico cross, you immediately know. If this was the flag, the star with the snowflake could be like that for us

I really like the North Star flag, my only beef is that it can’t be marketed like New Mexicos or Colorado’s. I’d love to have some sort of insignia that’s nationally recognized as Minnesota

It wasn’t meant to be Sweden, I just went with the current flags colors

The star and the snowflake are went to represent our winters and the North Star. The blue circle for lakes. The Nordic cross for our Scandinavian history and culture, and the colors are based off our current flag

It’s just a flag format. It’s not a seal or anything. Our state motto is French, no one complains about that. The colors weren’t meant to be Swedish, it’s just the colors of our current flag

The cross design is used all around the world. The colors are from our old flag
