Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

This is interesting.

  • America does not have an official flag theme, but countries like the UK (127 users), Mexico (30 users) and Canada (59 users) have theirs. Even Venezuela has one with a single user.
  • Puerto Rico has two themes, though the second is named "Puerto Rico 3". There's no flag for California, Texas, or DC.
  • The most popular official flag theme is Flag India 2, at 261 users. An additional 29 use Flag India
  • The Palestinian flag has not one, but two official flag themes, totalling at 49 users
  • The Israeli flag has a theme and six people use it
  • Tibet does not have a flag theme, but China and Taiwan both do
  • Russia (3 users) and Ukraine (21 users) are both represented
  • South Korea is only Korea
  • There are two Iran themes. Flag of Iran is a neutral tricolor without any emblem in the middle; Flag of Iran 2 uses the flag of the Islamic Republic of Iran with the emblem of the Republic in the middle. No love for the monarchist lion and sun.
