Talk:Tocharstan

The flag seems out of character for a Buddhist nation. I would expect the Wheel of Dharma instead of the Sun/Star. -- BPJ 06:18, 10 November 2005 (PST)

Proposed more Buddhist flag. Someone else no doubt could make it look nicer!

Basically, I don't object. This Tocharian flag is one of the four (lemme see: RTC, NCF, Tocharstan, Vozgian Rep... yes, four) flags I ever made for IB. I have to admit that it wasn't particularly intended to be used by a Buddhist nation. I just liked the design. Trouble is only that we still don't know anything about Tocharstan, except for its location. Is it likely that the Tocharians are still Buddhist? Well, probably, just like the Kalmyks remained Buddhist as well. But apart from that? I once postulated that the Tocharian republic should be "used" by someone who creates a Tocharian-based conlang. That's why I haven't done any work on it yet, nor do I intend to. In the meantime, we can use your flag. I'm sure I'll find another destination for the current flag! --IJzeren Jan 07:08, 10 November 2005 (PST)
I remade the flag with more distinctive, and web safe, colors. BPJ 11:25, 10 November 2005 (PST)
