Question Re: Country Flags
I am a child of The Universe, but you don't have a flag for that, nor can I have the option of no flag, It is a 'required' field.

How about a tweak TW - or even creating your own flag ?

To be truly PC the Union Jack should not be flown over land as it is not a flag in the true sense of the word. Historically its naval and should only be flown by HM Ships.

Then why (post Union) is there the 'Red Ensign' and (Later) the 'White Ensign' ?

When was the 'first' Royal Navy, and what did they fly ?

PS. and was the World round then ?
