Reichtangle

Reichtangle is the tall rectangular version of the German Empireball that existed during World War 1. It can also be interpreted as the possible 4th Reich, when Germany returns to its roots. It is known to be unsympathetic towards other countries, even being a bully to some like Polandball.
