: There is a very simple explanation to the colour of our ladonian
: flag. Simply this. We were the first. All other are stolen ideas
: since the ladonian flag of old was green with a green cross. The flag was originally
: a gift from the gods i.e Herr Beta, who on one occasion felt
: pity for the first king in all history, Ladon. Who in the beginning of
: time stod upon the shore in Ladonia. Pondering upon the fact that
: he had nothing to wave with at the occasion.
: And lo, out of the rainy sky the sun looked upon Ladon, who suddenly
: saw something come down from the sky.
: Mystified he looked upon the strange object until it fell upon him.
: When untangled from the mess Ladon found in fact that is was a flag, the ladonian
: flag. Out of the sky heard a thunderous voice say:
: Shit, I lost my napkin. Let it be so. Let the napkin of the gods
: be a gift for Ladonia.
: Thus, through all times, the ladonian flag is green with a green cross.
: Why change it? Let us instead demand that all other countries
: with similar flags change theirs...
