Was there a Crimean War in IB? Zahir 07:34, 27 December 2005 (PST)

I'm not sure, but I can't think offhand of a reason why not. —IJzeren Jan Uszkiełtu? 07:48, 27 December 2005 (PST)

Leader

Who is the leader of Crimea? Misterxeight 02:50, 4 October 2008 (UTC)

I think Jan's the caretaker or the area by default, but nothing much has been written because no one's had any use for Crimea yet. If you need a character in the "Pontic League" story arc, I'd just make one up and Propose him/her. Benkarnell 14:57, 4 October 2008 (UTC)

Post 1989 flag

Someone at Alternatehistory.com designed this for me. What does everyone think?

It's bootiful! Seth 17:32, 18 February 2009 (UTC)
It certainly is! Geoff 23:46, 18 February 2009 (UTC)
Its not ugly but what is the symbolism of it ? --Marc Pasquin 11:33, 19 February 2009 (UTC)
It came from the Mangup octogram, chosen as a symbol to unite all of Crimea's ethnic groups. The central flower in the original was enlarged, and the surrounding circle removed. You know, the circle had a nice "unity" connotation. Maybe it should be added. Benkarnell

I've created a less "weird" version that more obviously incorporates the octogram. It's simpler and I prefer it, even if it's a tad less flashy. Benkarnell 09:09, 8 November 2011 (PST)

Pre-Snorist flag

My sugestion for a flag from the Tauridan Soviet Republic (1918-194?). I based it in early short lived communist statelets across Europe. TSR for inscrition in Russian, TSC for inscription in Crimean Tatar (Tavrida Sovet Cumhuriyeti). I believe these two languages would be the main ones in crimean melting pot. I firstly thought to use the Crimean Tatar tamgla over red but this should be too ethnic for an ethnically diverse country.--Pedromoderno 00:55, 10 March 2010 (UTC)

Coat of Arms (SNORist)

Would the SNORist Crimean flag include a SNORified version of this coat of arms?

I'd been thinking to add a Snorified griffin, for consistency with the animal theme of the others. Do you think the Russian arms would be better? Benkarnell 12:27, 21 September 2020 (PDT)

I don't know, but a simplified Griffin, or the Eagle could work, or maybe a combination of both.

--General tiu 13:32, 21 September 2020 (PDT)

Maybe something like ? It has a SNORist style griffin with a field division similar to the flag of Crimea *here*

There it is! That was so quick - especially considering how long it's been since you dusted off the old SNOR graphics. Benkarnell 07:24, 24 September 2020 (PDT)
