Please make a new thread in future if you wish to continue an old discussion, rather than necroing it like in this case.DallasMVeneto said:Well the thing is i am Too Italian to fall for the Green, White, and orange. When i think about it the flag may have dodged a bullet for almost copying the Italian Kingdom flag, because of how they are pretty identical only one has a different color from the other. The Kingdom of Italy was established long before the Republic of Ireland. Not dissing on them for the unorginality of their flag, just that i can tell what is Italian and what is Irish. But seriously they could not be more mainstream, have you seen wales flag, it is pretty awesome that fact that i put it's animal on the front which was a freaking dragon. Again i am not being rude towards Irish people, in fact i got a friend who is Irish and his name is Patrick. So yeah i don't know why they did not make it Orange, White, and Green, just saying it would have been a little better. Still though they may change their flag, it's only the process of time and politics that will decide that. Though Italians vs Irish in soccer i think both would be tied, but in a war Ireland could be beaten kinda badly since the Italians made huge advancements in technology. And the fact that the Irish have to rely on the British for main battle tanks just makes it sad. I love the Irish and the Italians but i am Italian so i have to stand by my flag and my origin country, you know, "Join or die." Well after that bit of tantrum, i think if you were to just study polotics and history it should be easy for you to tell the difference between an Irish flag and an Italian flag.
If any one was offended by this then i would like to apologize deeply for it, i was only sharing my thoughts and if you wish to throw your thoughts my way then i will read and respond in a gentleman like manner.
I hope you have a pleasant stay on our forums.
