flag designs

i was at a new church on sunday and every greeter i saw was wearing a "cultural" outfit, amongst us some were clearly vietnamese, indonesian and chinese. turned out the sermon of the day was about missions. there's sort of a linkage, i suppose. i sat there listening to a pastor that i've known some 15 years ago (this new church was an extension of a church i attended when i was a teenager), and as i looked up, there were flags from different coutries flapping in the blasts of cold air spit out by the airconditioning units in overdrive. a flag i'd not seen before but recognized immediately was the cambodian flag - it had angkor wat on it and i thought to myself a 5 year old kid would have a hard time drawing that for a kindergarten assignment. so you can imagine i was quite amused by this via marginal revolution. our country received a b grade (too many stars, and i was told by a someone who teaches an undergraduate course "heavenly mathematics", astrologically incorrect/impossible.) ~exp~

if 5 stars were "too many" i can imagine what the grade of a flag with 50 stars would be.
