I don't know what is more depressing... that the Greek community on Lemmy is so inactive (!greece@lemmy.world ), or that the flag was only done by one user!
I made four flags mostly by myself, idk if there was anybody from Czechia or Romania online for example
I did the Portuguese one almost on my own too, as witnessed the Finnish and Swedish flags eating two Baltic flags that were already fully drawn. The space was definitely too small for the project
That was the canadians fault, they ate one row of flags
yep, the right side was difficult to defend! but I'm not mad, their flag with the country outline turned out absolutely beautiful.
I'm glad it managed to survive to the end :)
Hey there! Thanks for helping complete the flag
oh my god what sudden memories
who is this? (am dumb)
the German finance minister during the debt crisis ten years ago and the person who personalized the intransigence of the north against the spending of the south
Funny how Norway is there even though it's not even in the EU
Fucking crane foundations, T'KNOW WHAT A CRANE WEIGHS! Now I'm GETTING WILD HERE! Can't even hold a tape measure, that's why they're not in the EU!
/s
I had to look this up.
It's a wishlist rather than a snapshot of the now
am I blind or is there no Ireland representation anywhere
Oh my God. I think the Italian flag confused me (why the hell are there so many flags that are so similar to each other??)
P.S. Cyprus and Malta are also missing, but their four inhabitants were busy that day
Netherlands is also missing, because the Dutch used Luxemburgs colours for some reason
I think the flag Luxemburg is next to the flag of Belgium and the flag of the Netherlands is on the left above the one of Norway.
~~Lithuania~~ Latvia is also only represented by the dark red of the Danish flag.
Netherlands, Croatia, Slovakia, Slovenia and Estonia got added really late
Because everyone copied frances flag so it led to similar ones.
Yeah, it's still missing a few flags (Ireland, Greece, Lithuania, Letony...). There wasn't much space left around to do them without overriding someone else's art, and too little time to do it (thank you to everyone who went well into the night to make the estonian one <3)
At least Norway didn't end up completly cursed haha.
Isn't Lithuania the one glued to Spain on the left?
Whoops! You're absolutely right, I missed it.
🤔
!canvas@toast.ooo for the context
If you want to see the final canvas: https://canvas.fediverse.events/
There are two slovenias, top left. Which is better?
I think they are Slovenia and Slovakia, the shade of blue and the shield changes a little, but it is basically the same flag
Is there a Fediverse "Place"?
finished for this year, follow the community so you don't miss next year
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !canvas@toast.ooo
Nice to see hungary there... twice? But it is insulting to see denmark eating sweden.
I do miss Latvia :(
