| Arconia's Flag? The Queen and myself are seeking suggestions for the Kingdoms flag. Please post your suggestions and be descriptive.
note: we also seek the Kingdom flower,(or plant)fruit,and bird.
It has been suggested that the Official Kingdom fruit be the Mango.(no pun intended).
respectfully yours King and Queen of Arconia

| Here's the blazon for my idea:
Vert, party per pale gules. A foil and an Epee proper in saltire, and a sabre proper in fess. Motto: "Acronia for the people" in chief.
Guess who studied heraldry and heraldic symbolism. I thought it'd be useless.

| he wants green, i think it should be a pale greenish blue, sort of a turquoise, which is considered to be a royal color, with the three weapons, embrodered in silver thread, with the motto written on the bottom
"Arconia for the People, I enjoy being King"
(maybe a small picture of a small boy eating puddin-pie?) |

The background is half and half, green and red. Foil and epee, crossed, and a saber horizontal. The motto is at the top, with a pudding on each end.
I'll post a picture of it, if someone'll enlighten me on how to do.
Edited bit:
Okay... I'm downloading the ftp software so as I can Upload the picture to my server...
I'll put the picture in a reply.....
Steve

| steve, you are great, totally dedicated and demented like all of arconia's.
National Currency:
For the Coins: naturally on one side a fencer on the other the motto. One coin for saber, one for epee and one for foil.
The BIlls: okay, more room for more designs, I noticed we don't have any fresca or pudding, so they're out. The official flower? Anyone have an idea, a tree of some sort? |

| The national tree has got to be the Lame tree. "Twangyfoily Folius"
It grows on the east side of the land of Arconia. It bears delicious red fruit, and is the favourite nesting site of the Salle Bird.
I'll run up a few pictures of some coins and post them on the geocities site.
I'm demented, yeh. Great? Nah. I'm a mere traveller from the land of water-cooler. I may actually set up residence here though, If you don't mind. I'll earn my way, and, if necessary, die fighting to keep Arconia for the People.
But thanks for the compliments.
Need a sherriff while your kniggets are away?
I'll post an official application to the king.
I'd say to criminals: "I fart in your general direction" lol (Python).
Steve.
