On the question of Belgium being the worst colonizers, you have to take in mind that the Congo Free State was the personal property of Leopold II. The Belgian government had nothing to say into what happened in the Congo, until they bought it from Leopold. Leopold II wanted a colonial empire, the Belgian government voted against it again and again. The governments didn't want to invest and saw it as a waste of time for the most part.

I'm Sri Lankan and very happy that your favourite flag is the S. L one. However i must say that the lion in the flag is a normal one. It's just that every wave of it's mane is shown in a detailed manner because they all represent something.
Also since you said that you like old style flags you would be interested to know that every provincial flag in Sri Lanka is based on ancient or medival kingdoms that once existed in our country

You should do a video on what if the Bactrian or Indo-Greek Empire survived. This would be so interesting as it would most likely mean that the Ottoman Empire would never exist.

I was really late to the stream, can you make a twitter or something along those lines to remind us a couple of hours before going live?

Would you ever share the Polish-Lithuanian text game you created in Python so others could try it out? It seems fun and interesting!
