At least in France itself, it's usually considered to be a hexagon. It's about half way between a hexagon and pentagon in my opinion. The bottom side of the pentagon is two sides of the hexagon.
I was honestly shocked that it took 5 whole days, I couldn’t do this in 5 months and you put this masterpiece together in under a week? That’s amazing!
What a five days well spent!! Thanks so much for this! The extra visual layer like this is all that was really missing from the original even if they got close. This is effectively a music video
The French call their country "l'Hexagone" when it looks like a pentagon and that has always bothered me. Seeing this illustrated, even if it was unintentional, made me feel good and laugh.😂
