Because we all know I can never come to a decision when it comes to flags, I'll leave it up to you. I've decided that the Commonwealth shall become the Azanian Imperium because well, just because :lol: Now I can ever keep Flag A, the current Commonwealth flag, as the new Imperium flag or go with Flag B which is a nice cross between the actual South African Flag and the Commonwealth flag scheme.

I decided to make flag B because I've gotten on a kick of using the RL flags of the nations I occupy if they were for me. I think the South African flag is a interest design and actually like the way it came out aside from the placement of the crosses. I think it'd probably look better without the crosses but I like the look of the crosses. Anywho, pick and choice, discuss, rant on me for changing the Commonwealth's name.....again. Whatever you do, just make sure you help me make a choice :D

I voted for none, the purple, for me, is not a flag colour.
I think however that the first design is better, only change the purple

Went with B

Although the first seems like a neat battle-standard.

That's a neat idea. NRE, instead of forcing yourself to choose between the two, why not just assign each flag for a different purpose? Kinda like what Ulg was saying, keep one as a national flag and another as a battle/army standard.

I went with B.

I agree with this.

Also, I think the second flag might look better with emblem in a white circle, like in the first one, over the intersection of the "Y".

Is the sideways Y the symbol of the Marian Church? :P

:lol: ......... :furious: ........ :nono: ....... :thumbdown: ...... :uglysmile: ......... :P


or the simple answer: no :lol:

An using both, just for different things, isn't a bad idea. I actually prefer Flag B as a banner more than a flag. I think it look better as a banner because the crosses seem more appropriate, see:
