Revision as of 20:27, 21 February 2007

In 1932, whilst the rest of the world was in a great economic depression, Gnoled Ttam was led by Prime Minister Gnoled Ttam.There was such admiration of him by the people of Ftanislovakia there was a so called “Gonled Ttam-movement,” that changed the nations name, and created a new constitution. The Gnoledttamish flag was designed to represent the change of national name. White represents the nothingness before, purple the suffering of many while those in Ftanislovakia flourished. Teal represents the new area under a new name, a new start.
