How Many Flags?

Do you see on the border of this billboard?
I counted probably around sixty, and I could not say
which country they were for though  I could find
where said country is on an atlas.

They are places that were reinvented by colonialism.
Each place had to reinvented itself as a nation,
a state, as it threw off it's colonial master.

For the UK to declare itself 'inclusive'
'multi-faith', 'multi-cultural' etc is a very small price
to pay for it's history of looting so many countries.
