I see yazirians and humma having a similar practice. Dralasites would easily adopt the practice. I think it'd be likely that the strong maritime tradition of the ifshnit would see the evolution of a flag. Strong possibility that both the Rim and the Frontier have flags. So what's the flag of the UPF? The MSO? Planetary governments? And etc. I might not be a dralasite, vrusk or yazirian but I do play one in Star Frontiers! |

I think the Dralastites would not use flags in the same way. They strike me as an amphibious bunch. What sort of banner would work both in water and land?

For instance the flags of the US and France use the transformative colors common at the time of the rise of republicanism.The transformation from day (white) through sunset (red) to night (dark blue). other cultures do this as well; The germans before WW2 did the same thing but with Black representing night, and the Irish used the colors of the seasons Autumn orange to snow white to spring and summer green. I figured in my effort to finish my Ishnit rank project I would use this theme and com up with thier symbol. I will post the result in the Port Loren library in the next few minutes, and post the link here. Reasonable men adapt to the world around them; unreasonable men make the world adapt to them.
