    10:42 I don't know much about that flag but I can say that the infinity symbol is a symbol of the Métis people. The Métis are an Indigenous group in Canada that are descended from First Nations and European (typically French) traders in colonial times

    • @owljames4699
      @owljames4699 3 месяца назад +94

      The flag is a mix of the Métis symbol and the ‘drapeau de Carillon’, which was basically the first version of the Québec flag. I’ve never seen those two combined before though.

      And the inward-pointing fleur-de-lis are from the original design for a Quebecois flag. The extra gold fringing doesn't mean anything to me. I think most Canadians would be able to look at that flag and be able to figure out what it's supposed to be.

      @Isometrix116 3 месяца назад +8

      @viewer.123 I know it's a decently common charge, but the fact they put it on the Congo's flag is definitely some dark humor.
      Just in case anyone doesn't know, one atrocity in the Congo that drew a lot of international attention was that the Belgian colonizers would cut off the hands of workers who underperformed or tried to show any resistance. Reportedly, King Leopold II said that this was a mistake, not because it's an atrocity, but because "We need more hands in the Congo, not fewer."

    • @viewer.123
      @viewer.123 3 месяца назад

      I am aware of this, hands do hold alot of symbolism in multiple contexts and in other cultures certain things have been done with hands as punishment or as a sign of ownership, domination etc
      To me this is reminiscent of the story behind the British two finger salute. Although the context is different it's the same sort of humour

    One of the nations released from Spain's African possessions has the tag WES
    When fascist, it's called the Empire of the Desert
