Welcome :slight_smile:

My eyes are not the best and I know, unfortunately, not all the flags of the world. Maybe you could, for once, give the name, and not the icon? :slight_smile:

The Netherlands (cheese) and India (Bharat) are not, I think.

Probably @dr460nf1r3 knows where the one with the dragons comes from.

:slight_smile:

Of course, the only nation with a Dragon on its flag, Wales (or Cymru in the native tongue), famous for lots of things, but my favourite, Y'Fenni - cheese made with beer and mustard seeds.

Enjoy

I have to admit it's a pretty cool flag :smile_cat: don't the Welsh also have the world's longest and most crazy city name?

Woah someone from the land of the dragon flag :OOO welcome!!
Welsh is definitely one of the languages of all time. Didn’t that city appear on the news and get shared as a meme because of how a reporter pronounced the city name perfectly? :smiley:
Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwyllllantysiliogogogoch

As someone with lactose intolerance, that cheese sounds absolutely delectable and I would gladly feel all the pain in the world to try that cheese :rofl:

Thanks you all for the warm welcome!

Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwyllllantysiliogogogoch isn't actually a city, it's a train station in North Wales, near Anglesey.

The town is actually just called Llanfairpwllgwyngyll (pronounced Lan Vire Push Gwyn Geth) and the train station literally translates to The Church of St Mary in the hollow of the white hazel near the rapid whirlpool and the church of St Tysilio near a red cave (it was a publicity stunt in the 1800's)

Cymru is not Wisconsin (land o’ cheese). However, their native tongue is just as hard to understand.

Anyway, welcome to Garuda Linux, where dragons (and cheese) have everyone’s respect. :smiley:
