Stadium, a foosball table created by artist Maurizio Cattelan of Berlin, Germany, requires 22 players to play at a time! The green ink used for American currency was actually invented at McGill University in Montreal, Canada. Canada didn't get its own flag until 1965- nearly 100 years after becoming a country!

Maybe one day Australia will dump the union jack and put in the Australian aborigine flag instead. Red and black with a yellow sun in the center.

Forgotonia had an all white flag! The idea was to declare war on the rest of the US , then surrender to collect foreign aid! (Forgotonia was a collection of counties in western Illinois re 1970s – the forgotten area)

Canada had a flag until 1965. The Liberals substituted their party banner, which Germans, Russians, Libyans will tell you aren’t real flags. Canada has not had a flag since.
