Dragons on Flags
Extra would gladly approve of a flag that breaks all flag conventions if it has a dragon on it
(closed captions are automatically on, because I tend to speak too quickly)
By the way, I did mention that there's no proof that Cadwaladr used a dragon at all, but I should have made that a lot more clear. edwinhuang9244 referred to a video by Cambrian Chronicles that goes a lot deeper into that, so I recommend you check that video out with the link below. Thank you to both of you!

Some countries like making their national animals a mythical one, and a few of those have even put those animals on their flags. This video talks about the origins of the Welsh, Maltese and Bhutanese dragons specifically.

    The Belarusian flag is literally just the soviet Belarus flag without the hammer and sickle. Many Belarusians don't believe the flag represents them. Many Belarusians recognize the flag of Belarus as a red stripe surrounded by two white stripes.

    1) Bhutan's Dragon was always meant to be White. 2) The Guy who united Bhutan wasn't just an "Abbot of the Monastery". He was the Leader of the Drukpa Kagyu Lineage who sought refuge in Bhutan after being Driven out of Tibet by the King of U-Tsang & the Tibetan Factions favouring his Rival, HH Gyalwang Pagsam Wangpo. The Man who would go on to Create Druk Yul after this incident was none other than HH Zhabdrung Ngawang Namgyal, a Descendant of HH Drogon Tsangpa Gyare Yeshi Dorji, the Founder of the Drukpa Lineage & like his ancestor, was a member of the Prominent Gya Clan. 3) The Monastery U are referring to is probably Ralung Monastery in the Tsang Region of Western Tibet, which wasn't named after Druk (Thunder Dragons). Instead, the Drukpa Lineage sect of the Kagyu School of Tibetan Buddhism was named after the 9 Druk soaring towards the sky, which HH Tsanpa Gyare Yeshi Dorji witnessed while on a pilgrimage. A Simple Internet Search and referring Legitimate Tibetan & Bhutanese Sources can easily get U all the information U want.

    At 3:27 this became so bad that I didn't see any point in watching the rest of the video. NO, the Equator is NOT the hottest because it is closest to the Sun. It is hot because the Sun's rays are perpendicular. And NO, the hot air from the Equator is NOT brought to the Tropics. It's the other way around. The hot air at the Equator RISES UP. And when it rises up, it cools down, creating rainfall. This cool air THEN goes north and south, and it SINKS DOWN at the Tropics. As it sinks down, it heats up, and thus dries up. THAT is why there are deserts there. Because the sinking DRY air sucks all of the moisture out of everything. This air then flows back to the Equator, sucking more moisture out of the air as it goes. And when it gets to the Equator, the cycle repeats itself. If you don't even know THIS, then I doubt you have anything useful to say.

    1:10 Garuda is actually the bird that Lord Vishnu of Hinduism rides on. Most people haven't seen it but it's probably exists... somewhere according to my beliefs. Hinduism and Hindu names came to Thailand and Indonesia long before the Muslims and Buddhists. So, many people use words like Raya (king) in their names. There are a minority of Thai Hindus in Thailand and most Balinese are also Hindus (although they are monotheistic for some reason). According to the Ramayana, Garuda's feathers are mythical. It can probably heal someone attacked by the Brahmastra. So, on the battlefield, Lakshmana (brother of Lord Rama) was unconscious but Garuda came and rubbed his feathers over Lakshmana, which caused him to regain his consciousness.
