Zaujala ma informacia o povode americkej vlajky - konkretne jej trinastich cervenych a bielych pruhov. Vzdy som si myslel, ze (tak ako je oficialne prezentovane) reprezentuju trinast povodnych vzbureneckych statov.
Co som vsak uz nevedel, ze teito pruhy boli inspirovane vlajkou East India Company:

A odkial mala inspiraciu samotna vlajka East India company? Prekvapujuco - z indonezskeho kralovstva..
"the stripes were inspired by local Malay flags, which were inspired by the Indonesian Majapahit Empire's flag (as is arguably the Indonesian flag today). Both the Majapahit and early EIC flags had 9 stripes of red and white."

Nuz, takze vlastne pasy na US vlajke su inspirovane vlajkou stareho indonezskeho kralovsta.
