Thanks for the heads up on the India link, just updated it.

New Zealand could be a challenge, I haven’t started on that one yet, hope you like what I come up with.

Well done for spotting Waldiya.  I’m thinking of adding similar ‘Easter Eggs’ to future projects (Alternate flags of Australasia /Africa/North America/South America).  Does that sound like a fun idea?

I am indeed planning future projects for Africa, Oceania and America.  I haven't yet decided which one to do next - any countries you'd particularly like to see?

Well, I would say that Oceania should be the start XD I'm Asian, Southeast Asian to be particular. So Oceania is virtually our next-door. Beside, Oceania has the least number of nations in the world so it's easier to do it first.

Next should be Africa. End with America. Btw, as much as I'm disguise with the current rampages from American nationalists, exceptionalists and religious bullshits, I do not wish for the United States to be divided. Maybe I'm just too optimistic and pacifistic, but I believe in reformations, as deep as possible, not outright breaking everything.

Oceania it is then. 

It might be a while, as I'm about to start a busy period at work and I want to be able to devote sufficient time to designing flags which fit with the culture and history of each nation.  Just as you say, reformation is better rather than outright breaking everything (When I do the North American map for this project, I don't plan on dividing the USA)

BTW, what did you think of my South East Asian flags?  I'd value your feedback.

Take your time, mate I'm also pretty much busy with life and work, so I understand that feeling.

For the flags, I'd say you did a fair job Although flags for Vietnam and Malay are a tiny, whiny, little bit plain :-D But you did try to make flags based on each nation's culture and tradition ---> A brilliant job, actually, since so many nations today based their flags rather on politics or religious.

In a geo-political timescale, politicians come and go so fast I don't think its worth using politicians as inspiration for flags and symbols.

I get what you mean about Malay, I struggled to think of what to put on that one (now, if only my boss would fund a three week 'research' trip)

I ran out of time.  I wanted to get this project uploaded as I have a busy few weeks coming up and I simply couldn’t think of an alternate flag for Djibouti.  I’ve omitted a few other nations too, either due to their small size or not being able to show them properly on the map.

If you have any ideas for a flag for them, let me know – I hope to reinstate Djibouti for a future Alternate Flags project.

Thanks.  I think the Russian one came out well.

It took about five weeks.  Bangladesh and Qatar were probably the hardest ones to design flags for.
