My favorite flags are the ones that can be reasonably drawn by hand. The American Flag is pushing it with those thirteen stripes and 50 stars, but at least they are simple shapes. The flag of my home State of Oregon is entirely too complex and detailed for anyone except exceptional sketch artists to get right (and practically impossible to do entirely by memory). However, this Antarctic flag is a brilliant combination of simplicity, beauty, and meaning.

The greenland flag being a kind of opposite to this one is so perfect to me. One has red while the other has blue, one is north while the other is south, one has most of the color on top while the other is on the bottom, one has a round shape while the other is pointy. If I were an alien and I discovered these flags in their respective countries I'd assume they were some weird earth hieroglyphics that translated to top/bottom and were just being used to label the top and bottom of the planet.

For the sake of Grey’s wellbeing and mental health, I’m super glad he managed to contain himself. For the sake of my own cruel and easily distracted mind, I’m slightly disappointed there was no hour long descent into existential madness. I am a bad person. Simple or labyrinthine, our household is going to end up watching it 12 times and rewatching the entire back catalogue anyway, just like we do every time there’s a new video CGP Grey video. We will create our own descent into madness, as it should be.

For anyone outside the gaming sphere, the reason Grey mentioned EA's involvement with the vocal equivalent of this emoji 😬 Is because they're _infamous_ for, among other things, a bad habit of buying gamedev studios that made something cool, beloved or unique, getting their grubby investors hands all over the next products until it's noticeably worse, and then promptly firing everyone and sending the poor, acquired studio to the mass grave. It is a tragicomically frequent occurrence.

I know you probably cut it for time, but the timeline is deceptive since there have been several contenders for the flag design before and after the Bartram flag. There was Smith’s 1978 design, Cooper and Tucker’s in 1995, Hamilton’s in 1999, and Leroi’s in 2007. I think all the designs are pretty great for their own reasons, but I agree that the 2018 one is probably my favorite as well.

So glad to have these longer videos and not shorts. Just because TikTok is successful, we don’t all need to emulate the format everywhere. I come to channels like this for the character and edutainment, I stay for the soothing, sexy voice!

With a flag like that, does that make Ether the official currency of Antarctica?

It's quite a cool flag indeed. I also love the detail that its aspect ratio is wider than usual so the central icon will remain visible for longer in the harsh Antarctic winds
