RED LIGHT DISTRICT

Single by Majin Tai

## About

"RED LIGHT DISTRICT" is about Tai letting go of the fear of what others think of him, and just cut down anyone or anything that stands in his way, or cut people out of his life in an instant, or burn bridges because there's no point in influencing ignorant minds.

this was that last track recorded under his former moniker, **user35576217**.

SKIDROW

Single by Majin Tai

## About

“SKIDROW” is majin tai's first official release. “SKIDROW” is about his plans for him and his homies to make it in rap, and just life in general despite the hardships that they might face. Majin tai originally released version 1 of this song dating all the way back to February 2021. He then deleted it off of Soundcloud 1 month later. After about 4 months of waiting, He rerecorded the song in June. This song finally released on Sunday, June 27th.

Fun Fact: He recorded a couple of his first songs from his iPhone 11, but he did not know how to mix vocals so the mix was atrocious. So he worked and saved up money to buy a microphone and some headphones.
Highlighters

Highlighters is a contestant in SAWARS.

The highlighters consist of 4 multi-coloured highlighters.

Yellow highlighter is the pessimistic one of the highlighters, she is anxious of falling over and whines when she does.

Green highlighter is the most optimistic out of them all, Green is the brightest (in personality) and is always enthusiastic. They do easily get distracted though.

Blue highlighter is the coolest one of them all. She is chill and laid-back,

Purple highlighter is more of the leader of them all, he keeps everything on track and try to complete each challenge quickly. Sadly, the rest of them don't tend to work with him.

The only way to become well drawn again is to find the multicoloured pen.

For some reason, Behs have a strange liking to Spectrum, refusing to sting him.

There are currently 262 Behs that have been drawn.
Abkhazia

## Eulogy 1

*By Cam Cain*

Abkhazia is a semi-sovereign nation in the country of Georgia

Only five countries officially recognize Abkhazia: Russia, Venezuela, Nicaragua, Syria, and Nauru

Abkhazia declared independence in 1993 after going to war with Georgia and committing genocide

Conflict stemmed from Georgia declaring independence from the Soviet Union and Abkhaz folks not being too happy about it

   Abkhazia hosted and won the 2016 ConIFA World Cup: the World Cup of soccer for unofficial countries. Participants in the tournament included Kurdistan, Isle of Man, and Northern Cyprus

## Eulogy 2

*By Gregory Severin*

Abkhazia is a partially recognized state in Northwest Georgia

It's one of those pesky Soviet breakaway states you hear about from time to time, alongside South Ossetia and Transnistria and apparently now Donetsk and Luhansk

In the Soviet era, it existed as an autonomous SSR associated, but distinct from, Georgia. Initial tensions between the two lessened when Stalin died

After the Soviet era, there were skirmishes and maybe a little ethnic cleansing in Abkhazia as they expressed their displeasure at the Soviet Union falling apart

Today, Abkhazia is recognized only by Russia, some of Russia's friends, and a couple of states that need aid from Russia. It's only really relevant when Russia brings it up as a response to other countries recognizing self-declared independent states, like Kosovo

## Tournament

As the 403 seed, Abkhazia was cleanly swept by Saudi Arabia in Round 1 Matchup 148 of FlagVote 2. As the 639 seed, it was defeated by Azores in Round 1 Matchup 132 of FlagVote 3.

## Results

### FlagVote 2

**Round 1:** Loss to (110) Saudi Arabia 7-0
Dominica

## Eulogy 1

*By Cam Cain*

Dominica is a Caribbean island nation, located near Martinique

Natives of the island speak a French Dominican Creole

Featured on the flag is the Sisserou parrot, native to Dominica

The island was originally colonized by the French. It was taken by the British in the Seven Years War and declared independence in 1978

39% of Dominica’s exports are plantains and another 22% is soap

## Eulogy 2

*By Gregory Severin*

Dominica is an island nation in the Caribbean sandwiched between Guadeloupe and Martinique. I guess this means it's sandwiched between France and France, huh

Its name comes from the fact that Columbus "discovered" it on a Sunday. The Carib people called it Wai‘tu kubuli, a phrase meaning "Tall is her body"

Like Guadeloupe and Martinique, Dominica was colonized by the French. Unlike Guadeloupe and Martinique, but like Quebec, the British took it after the Seven Years' War

Also like Quebec, Dominica has a unique mixture of French and English cultural heritage. It's the rare member of both the Commonwealth of Nations and La Francophonie

Boiling Lake is in Dominica. If you couldn't guess from its name, it's a lake on a volcanic vent that is literally at a rolling boil all the time. It's also a UNESCO World Heritage Site

Though its lush rainforests and cool animals (like the one on the flag) have given it the nickname "The Nature Island of the Caribbean", Dominica sees relatively few tourists compared to its neighbors, likely due to having few beaches and many volcanoes

Remember that bit in the second *Pirates of the Caribbean* movie where Jack and crew are running from cannibals? That was filmed in Dominica

## Tournament

Dominica was defeated by Hungary in Round 2 Matchup 60 of FlagVote after previously defeating Iran. As the 334 seed, it was defeated by Micronesia in Round 1 Matchup 155 of FlagVote 2. As the 518 seed, it was defeated by Munster in Round 1 Matchup 226 of FlagVote 3.

## Results

### FlagVote

**Round 1:** Win over Iran 5-2

**Round 2:** Loss to Hungary 5-1

### FlagVote 2

**Round 1:** Loss to (179) Micronesia 4-3
Guairá

## Eulogy

*By Cam Cain*

Guairá is a department of Paraguay, the second smallest by area and third most densely populated excluding the capital district

The boundaries of the state originally lined up with the modern-day Brazilian state of Parana. However, Portuguese and later Brazilian invasions led the residents to migrate west of the Parana river to this new location.

Guairá has been named the capital of the Paraguayan Harp, the country’s national instrument. They were originally handcrafted by the native Tupa-Guarini.

Cerro Peró, also known as Cerro Tres Kandú, Paraguay’s highest mountain, is located in the department. It is about 2750 feet high and located in the Yvytyrusu mountain range. Salto Suizo, or Swiss Jump, the highest waterfall in Paraguay, is also located in the department.

2021 Miss Universe runner-up Nadia Ferreira comes from Guaira’s capital Villarica. Apparently last month she got engaged to Marc Anthony, who is 31 years older than her. Apparently she was a huge fan of his and first met him when she was 17 at one of his concerts. I’m going to go out on a limb here and say that this is a little bit gross

The blue on the flag represents the sky, and the purple represents grapes. Guairá is Paraguay’s top producer of wine, making it the second Wine Country in a row to be eliminated. Paraguay does not export their wine, so little is known about it

## Tournament

As the 438 seed, Guairá was defeated by Baden-Wurttemberg in Round 1 Matchup 248 of FlagVote 3.

## Results

### FlagVote 3

**Round 1:** Loss to (587) Baden-Wurttemberg 7-4

## Eulogy

*By Gregory Severin*

European powers really liked colonizing Africa in the 1800s

This flag is officially the flag of the African Union, of which all mainland states and Madagascar are a member

## Tournament

Andorra la Vella

*"fun fact andorra la vella is spanish for andorra the vella"*

*--Cam Cain*

## Eulogy

*By Cam Cain*

Andorra La Vella is the capital and largest city in Andorra

At over 3300 feet, it is the highest capital city in Europe. It is also one of the lowest points in the country

The name Andorra La Vella means Andorra the Town, to differentiate it from Andorra the country. Andorra Andorra Andorra

The town gets a lot of tourists, particularly people who come to visit the excellent nearby Pyrenees ski resorts.

## Tournament

Eritrea

## Eulogy 1

*By Gregory Severin*

Eritrea is a country located by the Horn of Africa

It was a colony of Italy from the late 19th century until the late 1940s, when Italy was in no shape to be colonizing anything

After that whole big thing and a UN-mandated "solution", the territory was annexed by Ethiopia. This would start a 30-year war for independence that ended in 1991.

Eritrea has never held a legislative or presidential election since becoming independent. It is sometimes considered the North Korea of Africa due to its authoritarian government and human rights abuses

Eritrea has won one (1) bronze medal in its history at the Olympics, when Zersenay Tadese finished 3rd in the men's 10K race. Alpine skier Shannon-Ogbnai Abeda is the only person to have ever competed for Eritrea at the Winter Olympics

## Eulogy 2

*By Cam Cain*

Eritrea is a long skinny country on the horn of Africa, across the Red Sea from Yemen. The country’s name comes from an ancient Greek word for the sea

It was under Italian and British rule before becoming part of Ethiopia. Following a 30-year war, it declared independence in 1991

A Marxist group led by president Isaias Afwerki seized power in 1993, and they have not given it up. All other parties and dissent are banned, and it ranks ahead of only North Korea in terms of press freedom. It is very secretive and has been called the North Korea of Africa, although it does not claim to have nuclear weapons

The Amharic-language Wikipedia page for Afwerki makes no reference to the many human rights abuses of the country, and it says that his enemies are radicals with Ethiopian blood. Wild stuff

The direct translation for Eritrea’s notable people from Amharic has some funny translations, with notable people such as “Peter said goodbye”, “It’s the end of the day”, and “Who is it?”

There is a triple junction between three tectonic plates in the Afar Triangle of Eritrea. It is the only place outside of Iceland where a mid-ocean ridge can be studied on land. Probably more difficult to get to though

Eritrea is the top cycling nation on the African continent, and they frequently win the men’s and women’s African cycling championships. In 2022, Biniam Girmay became the first African rider to win a stage in a Grand Tour event. However, he was forced to withdraw from the event after the cork from his celebratory bottle of prosecco hit him in the eye at the podium

## Tournament

Eritrea was defeated by Wales in Round 2 Matchup 19 of FlagVote after previously defeating Turkmenistan. As the 194 seed, it was defeated by Germany in Round 2 Matchup 125 of FlagVote 2 after previously defeating Guinea. As the 330 seed, it was defeated by Japan in Round 3 Matchup 92 of FlagVote 3.

**Round 3:** Loss to (74) Japan 7-3
Albania

## Eulogy

The Republic of Albania is a Balkan country in southeast Europe

Albanians do not call their country "Albania;" rather, it is referred to as *Shqipëria*

The country was run by Enver Hoxha from 1944 until his death in 1985

Hoxha and Tito had many disagreements over the country to which Kosovo belonged. Remember, kids: irredentism is cool only when *you're* the one trying to take *other people's* territory

Hoxha was also a bunker enthusiast, after having played one too many tower defense videogames in his youth. Today, bunkers can be seen all across the Albanian countryside

Albania was the only European country to follow Mao after the Sino-Soviet split

There are sizable Albanian minorities in both Southern Serbia (Kosovo) and North Macedonia, leading to a lot of... let's call it *friction* in the region. It's the Balkans, what do you expect?

## Tournament

Albania was defeated by Barbados in Semifinal 2 of FlagVote. As the 9 seed it was defeated by New Mexico in Round 6 Matchup 2 of FlagVote 2.

## Results

### FlagVote

Franco-Albertans

## Eulogy

*By Cam Cain*

This flag represents Franco Albertans. You should know the drill now, but in case you don’t, these are French speakers from the Canadian province of Alberta

As of the most recent census, there are about 86,000 native French speakers in Alberta and 400,000 who claim French ancestry. This makes it the largest Francophone community in Western Canada

The first Europeans to settle in Alberta were French speaking fur traders

The University of Alberta has a separate French speaking campus in Edmonton

This flag was created in 1982 and made official in 2017, with the fleur de lis representing French heritage and the red rose being a symbol of Alberta

Notable Franco-Albertans include boxer Chris Benoit and entertainer/singer Robert Goulet

## Tournament

As the 471 seed, this flag was defeated by Trinidad and Tobago in Round 2 Matchup 189 of FlagVote 3 after previously defeating Sussex.

## Results

### FlagVote 3

**Round 1:** Win over (554) Sussex 7-3

**Round 2:** Loss to (42) Trinidad and Tobago 8-1
Franco-Yukonnais

*"why do people like franco yukon it's a zigzag with a stripe of yellow snow"*

*--Gregory Severin*

## Eulogy

*By Cam Cain*

This is the flag of, you guessed it, French speakers in the Yukon Territory

There are 1,575 French speakers in the territory, which is 4.4% of the total population. About 4,000 residents claim some French ancestry

The Franco-Yukonnais newspaper is called L’Aurore boréale, which I think is kinda nice

The flag depicts the region’s mountains, and the yellow stripe represents the Klondike Gold Rush

May 15th is Yukon Francophonie Day. How did you all celebrate?

## Tournament

As the 264 seed, Franco-Yukon was defeated by Colorado in Round 3 Matchup 17 of FlagVote 3.

## Results

### FlagVote 3

**Round 1:** Win over (761) Pocatello (old) 11-0

**Round 2:** Win over (249) Alsace 8-1

**Round 3:** Loss to (8) Colorado 7-2
Cam's Burner Account

*"don't mind me"*

*--Cam's Burner Account*

**Cam's Burner Account** is an account created by Cam Cain on 5-17-22 using a fake email address. The account was created to test if the Andrew Romine bot still worked and greeted new members of the Slack. Unfortunately, the bot no longer worked. Cam's Burner Account was quickly added to #dynastybaseball and #dynastyhockey, with Sahil suggesting that the bot should be Cam's co-owner. Cam later added the account's icon as a custom emoji in the Slack.
Agistri Island

## Eulogy

*By Cam Cain*

Agistri, or Angistri, is a small island in Greece, part of the Saronic Islands

The name means “fish hook,” which would explain the fish hook on the flag

The island has a population of a little over 1,000 in just three settlements. Most tourists visit the town of Skala

The island was uninhabited until the late 17th century, when a group of Arvinites settled. Arvanites are a Greek ethnic group of Albanian descent

Wikipedia says that in 2015, an investor named Brian Kelly (not the football coach) tried to bring Blockchain and cryptocurrency to the island in order to revitalize its economy. I can’t find any articles later than August of 2015, but I’m sure 2022 was really great for them

## Tournament

As the 429 seed, Agistri Island was defeated by Wales in Round 2 Matchup 95 of FlagVote 3 after previously defeating Kurgan Oblast.

## Results

### FlagVote 3

**Round 1:** Win over (596) Kurgan Oblast 6-3

**Round 2:** Loss to (84) Wales 6-5
Bar Municipality

## Eulogy

*By Cam Cain*

Bar is a municipality and city in southern Montenegro on the Adriatic Sea. It is also on Lake Skadar, a karst lake which is the largest in southern Europe

Bar is known for its beaches on both bodies of water. The famous Red Beach is red in color and surrounded by dense pine forests

It is believed that Bar gets its name due to its location directly across the Adriatic from the Italian city of Bari. The two cities are connected by a large ferry

There’s an olive tree in Bar which is believed to be one of the oldest trees in the entire world. It supposedly dates back to pre-Roman times over 2000 years ago

Bar is a sister city of American beachy towns such as West Palm Beach, Santa Barbara, and… Rochester Hills Michigan

In the summer of that year, he pirated the DAW Fl Studio and began posting beats to SoundCloud. Tai would often delete his beats, and the the end of summer 2020, he would retire from beatmaking. In October 2020 he would return to beatmaking and drop "trappin out da backrooms". He then dropped a beat tape in November 2020 titled "Neo Demonz".

*"I love rainbow pattern and stuff but that’s just not great"*

*--Sully Tomich*

## Eulogy 1

*By Cam Cain*

Bolivia is a landlocked country in South America

There are approximately 5000 personnel in the Bolivian Navy

The flag’s canton features the Bolivian flag sans-seal as well as the Wiphala, the flag of Andean native people. In 2009 the Wiphala was officially recognized as a dual flag of Bolivia

## Eulogy 2

*By Gregory Severin*

The Bolivian Navy consists of about 5000 people

Bolivia has no access to the sea, nor has it had a coastline since losing the War of the Pacific and ceding the Litoral Department to Chile at the turn of the 20th Century

Due to this, its navy mostly operates in rivers trying to stop smugglers. Bolivia also has a naval presence on Lake Titicaca, which it shares with Peru

Every year on March 23, the birthday of war hero Eduardo Abaroa, Bolivia celebrates Dia del Mar (Day of the Sea), in which it reasserts its claim to Pacific Ocean access. The culmination of the day's festivities take place at a statue of Abaroa in La Paz. His last words: "Surrender myself? Your grandmother should surrender, fuck!"

Burlington

## Eulogy 1

*By Gregory Severin*

Burlington is the most populous city in Vermont, though it is not its capital

It is the home of the University of Vermont; FlagVote's own @Can is himself a rabid Catamounts fan

Burlington became the first American city to be run entirely on renewable energy in 2015

Two MLB players in history have been from Burlington. Pitcher Len Whitehouse pitched 115.2 career innings from 1981-1985 and had one career start (must have been a hell of a game), and catcher Birdie Tebbetts was a four-time All-Star (two with the Tigers, two with the Red Sox), retiring with exactly one thousand hits

The Vermont Lake Monsters, Class A affiliate of the Oakland Athletics, play their home games in Burlington

Longtime Vermont Senator and two-time Democratic Presidential runner-up Bernie Sanders was mayor of Burlington from 1981-1989

## Eulogy 2

*By Cam Cain*

Burlington is the largest city in Vermont

It’s located on Lake Champlain, the tenth largest natural lake in the US. In the early 80s, Burlington’s mayor (more on him later) started a project to revitalize the waterfront district, and now it’s full of all sorts of parks and bike paths and places to boat

Burlington is a quintessential college town, being home of the University of Vermont. The university employs about 4000 people and its hospital employs another 8000

Burlington’s Church Street Marketplace is one of the original outdoor pedestrian malls. In 2022, USA Today named it the best public square in the country

From 1981-1989, Bernard Sanders was Burlington’s mayor before he ran for the House of Representatives. Bernie still lives and works from Burlington, and he’s frequently seen around town. Me and Lexy saw him walking down Church Street while we were eating Ben and Jerry’s, and when my dad lived in Burlington, he would frequently see him in the shower at the gym

Notable people from Burlington include MLB player Birdie Tebbetts, Bechdel Test inventor Alison Bechdel, psychologist John Dewey, the band Phish, and both Ben and Jerry

## Tournament

Belize

## Eulogy 1

*By Cam Cain*

Belize is the least populous country in Central America

It was previously known as British Honduras until its independence in 1981, and as such English is the country’s official language

Though the capital is Belmopan, the largest city is Belize City, which has an even worse flag

The rugged coastline has been often used to smuggle drugs into Mexico

The barrier reef off the coast is one of the largest in the world

Olympic gymnast Simone Biles is of Belizean descent and holds dual citizenship

## Eulogy 2

*By Gregory Severin*

Belize is a country in Central America bordering Mexico and Guatemala

It is the only Commonwealth country in mainland Central America, having become independent from the UK in 1981

Though it's in continental North America, Belize is often considered a Caribbean country due to its history as a British colony

It was one of the first places Columbus made contact with on his first voyage

There are many Mayan ruins in Belize, and over 140,000 people were estimated to have lived in the ancient city of Caracol

Guatemala has not been a very good neighbor to Belize, as Guatemalan land claims have encompassed all or most of the country. The territorial dispute has gone on for longer than either country's independence and is currently pending review at the International Court of Justice

## Tournament

Belize was defeated by Guernsey in Round 1 Matchup 126 of FlagVote. As the 463 seed, it was cleanly swept by Chicago in Round 1 Matchup 232 of FlagVote 2. As the 658 seed, it was defeated by Kazakh Khanate in Round 1 Matchup 157 of FlagVote 3.

## Results

### FlagVote 3

**Round 1:** Loss to (367) Kazakh Khanate 7-1
Alsace

*"sad crown noises"*

*--Gregory Severin*

## Eulogy 1

*By Cam Cain*

Alsace is a region in the East of France

Ownership of Alsace has been transferred many times between France and Germany before finally returning permanently to France after World War II

It lies in a dry valley among the Vosges mountains

In 2016 the region was officially merged with Lorraine and Champagne-Ardenne to form Grand Est, despite protests

The city of Strasbourg is the largest in the region and a major French manufacturing hub

## Eulogy 2

Alsace is a region on the northeast tip of France

It has been passed between France and Germany just a whole bunch of times. Notably, its cessation at the end of WWI (Along with Lorraine) was a part of the Versailles Treaty that Hitler really really wanted to undo. He did, briefly, but it didn't last

Culturally it is a mix of the two. The Alsatian language is Germanic and the region is France's largest beer producer (German). HOWEVER, it also has a renowned viniculture and is known for its foie gras (French)

La Marseillaise, the French national anthem, was written in Alsace as a marching song for the local soldiers during the Napoleonic Wars. Allons enfants de la patrie

Alsace's largest city is Strasbourg. It's often considered one of the most "European" cities for its French-German cultural mix and the several European institutions headquartered there, most notably the European Parliament. It is twinned with Boston, often considered the most European city in the US

Arsène Wenger, the longtime manager of Arsenal FC, and Madame Marie Tussaud, who invented wax, were both born in Alsace

## Tournament

As the 398 seed, Alsace was defeated by Vanuatu in Round 1 Matchup 157 of FlagVote 2. As the 249 seed, it was defeated by Franco-Yukonnais in Round 2 Matchup 34 of FlagVote 3.

## Results

### FlagVote 3

**Round 1:** BYE

**Round 2:** Loss to (264) Franco-Yukonnais 8-1
Ashanti

## Eulogy 1

*By Cam Cain*

The Kingdom of Ashanti was an empire in modern-day Ghana

It existed in various forms from the late 1600s and survived multiple conflicts until merging with Ghana in 1957

They sold good and slaves to Europe, most notably to Portugal

Ashanti currently serves as a region within the country of Ghana, using the historic flag

## Eulogy 2

*By Gregory Severin*

This is the national flag of the Ashanti (or Asante) people, who live in central Ghana today

The Ashanti people founded an empire in the late 17th century that was renowned for its wealth; the empire's capital city of Kumasi was a major financial hub at this time and today is Ghana's second-largest city

The Ashanti Empire waged several wars against the British in the 1800s, eventually becoming a protectorate of the Crown in the early 1900s and formally incorporating itself into Ghana when the latter became independent in 1957

Thanks to the slave trade there is a sizeable Ashanti diaspora in the West Indies, and much of Ashanti culture has also made its way across the Atlantic, perhaps most notably the Jamaican Patois creole dialect and the folktales of the trickster, Anansi the spider

The central symbol in the flag is the Golden Stool, the Ashanti empire's historical throne and a symbol of national unity

## Tournament

As the 310 seed, Ashanti was defeated by the United Nations in Round 1 Matchup 167 of FlagVote 2. As the 513 seed, it was defeated by Myanmar in the very first matchup of FlagVote 3.

## Results

### FlagVote 2

**Round 1:** Loss to (203) United Nations 4-2
Congo

*"should have gone to medical school like his brother"*

*--Gregory Severin*

## Eulogy 1

*By Cam Cain*

Republic of the Congo is a country in central Africa

It has a 170 km border with the Atlantic Ocean

The capital and largest city is Brazzaville, across the Congo River from Dr. Congo’s capital of Kinshasa

It was known as Peoples Republic of the Congo for much of the 20th century as a Marxist-Leninist country after declaring independence from France

The economy is largely tied to oil production

Basketball star Serge Ibaka was born in Congo

## Eulogy 2

*By Gregory Severin*

The Republic of the Congo is a Central African country west of the Congo River

It is sometimes referred to by its capital, Brazzaville, to distinguish itself from its neighbor to the east

As a French colony, it sided with De Gaulle and Free France during World War II, and Brazzaville was the French Resistance's symbolic capital after Paris fell to the Nazis

Three years after becoming independent, two coups d'etat in five years installed a socialist, then later a Marxist-Leninist, leader, and Congo became a safe haven for exiled left-wingers and socialists from all over the continent

The collapse of the Soviet Union forced the country to transition to multiparty democracy, but considering the sitting president a) took power from the democratically elected government in 1997 following a civil war; b) has ruled uninterrupted for the past 25 years; and c) was also head of the repressive Congo government from 1979-1992, I kind of doubt that terminology's accuracy

Former Sonics draft pick Serge Ibaka was born in Brazzaville

## Tournament

Congo was defeated by Argentina in Round 1 Matchup 41 of FlagVote. As the 294 seed it was defeated by Dardania in Round 1 Matchup 183 of FlagVote 2. As the 196 seed, it was defeated by Herzeg-Bosnia in Round 2 Matchup 70 of FlagVote 3.

## Results

### FlagVote 3

**Round 1:** BYE

**Round 2:** Loss to (317) Herzeg-Bosnia 7-3
Acre

*"It took until this very moment to realize you werent talking about the acre from Assassins Creed"*
*--Gregory Severin*

## Eulogy 1

*By Cam Cain*

Acre is the westernmost of Brazil’s 27 states. It is the 16th largest and 25th most populous.

The state borders the countries of Peru and Bolivia.

   The largest city in the state is Rio Branco. With 335,000 residents, it is home to nearly half of all Acreanos.

The state lies within the vast Amazon rainforest

## Eulogy 2

*By Gregory Severin*

Acre is one of the two Brazilian states that border Peru

It is named after the Acre River, which itself is most likely named after an indigenous name for "river"

The entire territory is covered by the Amazon rainforest, and as a result Acre is the largest producer of Rubber and Brazil nuts in the country

Though it is roughly five times the size of Belgium, nobody really paid attention to it until rubber became a hot commodity. Then everybody wanted it

Acre declared its independence from Bolivia three times between 1899 and 1903. Eventually they became so much of a headache that Bolivia sold it back to Brazil in exchange for some territory in Mato Grosso

The Acriano state flag of today is in fact the flag these short-lived republics used during their brief forays into independence

## Tournament

As the 365 seed, Acre was eliminated from FlagVote 2 by Ottawa in Round 1 Matchup 110. As the 431 seed, it was defeated by Equatorial Guinea in Round 1 Matchup 160 of FlagVote 3.

## Results

### FlagVote 3

**Round 1:** Loss to (594) Equatorial Guinea 6-5
Benin

*Not to be confused with* Benin Empire

## Eulogy 1

*By Cam Cain*

**Benin** is a French-speaking West African nation.

The country was known as Dahomey until 1975.

The name Benin comes from an unrelated historical empire in modern-day Nigeria.

The largest city is Cotonou, with a population somewhere between 700,000 and 1,200,000.

Cotton is the country’s largest export.

   The country’s soccer team is currently ranked 84th in the world. This year (2019), they reached the quarterfinals of the African Cup of Nations for the first time after a stunning win over Morocco.

## Eulogy 2

*By Gregory Severin*

Benin is a West African country between Togo and Nigeria

Its name was changed from Dahomey, which evoked a kingdom dominated by one ethnic group, to be instead named after the politically neutral Bight of Benin in 1975

The Bight of Benin was infamous for its role in the slave trade and, after Britain outlawed slavery in 1807, the tropical diseases Royal Navy sailors caught in their attempts to suppress the slave trade. A popular rhyme of the day: "Beware and take care of the Bight of Benin. There's one comes out for forty goes in"

After a few regime changes in the sixties and seventies, the country was ruled by a Marxist-Leninist ideology from 1975-1990

The third-largest religion in Benin is voodoo

## Tournament

Benin was defeated by Morocco in the very first matchup of FlagVote and in #vexillology history. As the 404 seed, Benin was swept cleanly by Hamburg in Round 1 Matchup 109 of FlagVote 2. As the 495 seed, it was defeated by Acadia in Round 1 Matchup 154 of FlagVote 3.
Belt Fact

*"Ooh I like this one"*

--Andrew Beaudoin

**Belt Fact** is a Slackbot command in the M-SABR Slack. It was created on the evening of February 3, 2021 by Gregory Severin after Sahil reprimanded Cam for not having kept up on his Brandon Belt facts. Despite this, only one of the official Belt facts are actually about the longtime Giants' infielder. Belt facts are a sparsely used feature of the Slack, but they appear regularly whenever someone mentions a belt in any form regardless of whether the belt in question is of the fashion, asteroid, or Brandon variety.

## Responses

* The first belts in history were found to be worn by people in the Bronze Age, anywhere between 3300 and 1200 BCE.
* Did you know? The asteroid belt is estimated to contain between 1.1 and 1.9 million asteroids larger than 1 kilometer (0.6 mile) in diameter, and millions of smaller ones!
* Did you know that before the 1920s, belts were used more for decorative purposes rather than to hold pants up?
* The *lattilus* [originally misspelled as "*lattiilus*"] is the section of the belt strap that hangs loose or is tucked into a belt loop.
* In 2020, Brandon Belt posted 1.9 fWAR (2.1 bWAR) and triple-slashed .309/.425/.591 in 179 plate appearances.
* Planetary scientists estimate that if you could put all of the material that exists in the asteroid belt together, it would make a tiny world smaller than Earth’s moon.
Almohad Dynasty

*"Lets go chess dynasty"*

*--Yuki Mori*

## Eulogy

The Almohad Caliphate was a Muslim empire in North Africa and the Iberian peninsula which lasted about 150 years in the 12th and 13th centuries

The name Almohad, or al-Muwahhidun, translates to “Those who profess the unity of God”

The center of the dynasty was the town of Tinmel, located in the Atlas Mountains of Morocco. Although, Marrakesh was the official capital of the African portion and Seville the capital of the Andalusian portion.

They were one of many cyclical dynasties in the region: they quickly gained a lot of territory and then proceeded to quickly lose it. They were overthrown in Spain by Christian forces in the mid 1200s. Shortly after that, they lost their remaining African territory to the neighboring Marinid Sultanate.

They were known for treating Jews far worse than other neighboring Islamic empires, but far better than most European Christian ones

Many Almohad mosques are still around in Morocco

## Tournament

As the 731 seed, the Almohad Dynasty was defeated by Tywyn in Round 1 Matchup 239 of FlagVote 3.
Bowling Green

*"on one hand i appreciate that it’s a city flag with some actual effort put into it. on the other hand it’s just so dadgum weird lookin"*

*--Cam Cain*

## Eulogy

*By Cam Cain*

Bowling Green is the third largest city in Kentucky and the largest in the western part of the state

There is some dispute over the name of the city. Some sources state that it is named after a park in New York City, but others claim it is named after a town in Virginia. Either way, the town in Ohio is named after this one. Bowling Green State University is located in the Ohio Bowling Green, but Western Kentucky University is located here

In December 2021, two destructive tornadoes struck Bowling Green, killing 89 people and causing billions of dollars in damage.

In early 2017, Kellyanne Conway twice referenced the Bowling Green Massacre, a devastating attack by Islamic terrorists on a sleepy town in the heartland of America. The one issue is that there never was a Bowling Green Massacre. In truth, two Iraqi terrorists were arrested in Bowling Green in 2011, but the two did not attack anyone in the US

General Motors and Fruit of the Loom both have large plants in Bowling Green

Notable people from Bowling Green include Cash Cab host Ben Bailey, NBA player Rex Chapman, Home Run Derby participant Corey Hart, frosting namesake Duncan Hines, and Cage the Elephant

This flag was created in 2015, but it doesn’t appear to be official. The Facebook page for the flag has a graphic announcing that the Bowling Green Hot Rods minor league baseball team would wear jerseys inspired by this flag on August 20th, 2016. I can’t find any official source announcing this event or any real pictures of the jerseys, and I think the Facebook page may have made it up. The team website says that August 20th was 80s night, not Local Affairs night as the page claims. Either way, the game was rained out and not made up. Eleven future major leaguers were on that Hot Rods team, including Jake Cronenworth, Brandon Lowe, and Ian Gibaut

## Tournament

As the 394 seed, Bowling Green was defeated by Namibia in Round 2 Matchup 179 of FlagVote 3 after previously defeating Vojvodina.

## Results

### FlagVote 3

**Round 1:** Win over (631) Vojvodina 6-5

**Round 2:** Loss to (119) Namibia 8-2

Bienville Parish

*“I love bienville parish flag because it is insane. Love a good insane flag”*

*--Lexy Lee*

## Eulogy

*By Cam Cain*

Bienville Parish is one of 64 parishes (county equivalents) in the state of Louisiana

The parish contains Driskill Mountain, the highest point in the state at a whopping 535 feet. According to Wikipedia, it was created during the Cockfield (heh) Formation by the erosion of unlithified Paleogene sediment. I don’t know what this means but I’m sure Lexy does

It was named in honor of the Sieur de Bienville, a French explorer

The parish seat and largest city is Arcadia, with a population of 2919. Arcadia is home to Pilgrim’s, one of the largest poultry producers in the United States.

Bonnie and Clyde were shot dead in the parish. Other notable residents include author Dee Brown and MLB Hall of Famer Lee Smith

## Tournament

As the 512 seed, Bienville was cleanly swept by Canada in Round 1 Matchup 1 of FlagVote 2. As the 768 seed, it was defeated by Santa Venera in Round 1 Matchup 2 of FlagVote 3.

## Results

### FlagVote 3

**Round 1:** Loss to (257) Santa Venera 8-0
