A review of the flag of "Syldavia"
Syldavia is a fictitious country mentioned in
"The Adventures of Tintin" by Hergé. It's said to be the smallest
Balkan state, but is really intended as a good-hearted parody of Hergé's native
Belgium. The name "Syldavia" is apparently based on Transylvania and
Moldavia. Thus, this "flag" is a joke. But sure, I suppose this
*could* fool somebody in your Midwest home town. Five stars! And yes, the bird
is a pelican...
