I still think 1: the road sign warning of kangaroos ahead, and 2: the silver fern of New Zealand are the best true and only flags of Australia and New Zealand as real places with real people who have real homes in the Antipodes. neither flag is a flag that beseeches its youth to go to the other side of the world and die for someone else, or demands its people follow the orders of others, but rather to believe in yourself, do well, get strong, be secure, and love your own families, and love where and who you are, and have a great future in the real world.
