one off-topic reply to answer the question as to the difference, simply in a way anyone can understand without alot of reading and only a basic understanding of metaphor.

Fascism is Corporate state, the whole of society working together as a single body.
Nazism is racial state, the exclusion of one section of society from the body in order the raise the rest.
Nazism was just a racist version of fascism.
Authoritarian leftists like me may lament the fact that nazism basically means that all modern authoritarian parties are racist, but that's the way it is.
But I won't disagree that Mussolini had little time for hitler's racial policy, let alone what Franco thought of them.

Take the debate over the nature of Nazism and fascism to the History Forum folks, not appropriate for discussion in this forum, and definitely not in this thread.

It's just a shame that the OT forums are limitted to those people who don't publically state that they don't believe in a god.
The PI forums-more liberal than nazi germany, less liberal than Iran.

automated flag generation sounds good but in practical use it wouldnt be. Just make a huge pile of varient flags and it would work much better. If this was automated the results could often be suspect.

Considering that utterly random occurrences, such as China puppeting Ethiopia, would result in... unique flags, I doubt simplistic procedural flag generation would do much good.

If a certain country goes a certain ideology, or if a certain country puppets another certain country, then modders will take notice of this and will create flags which will be more unique and interesting by leaps and bounds compared to bland, generic "procedurally generated" flags.

Besides, I kinda doubt the Chinese in this case would seek to alienate the Ethiopians by totally Sinicizing the flag.

I'm sorry but i had to ask, fora? what's a fora? i was under the impression that the plural was forums, am i mistaken? does the fact i am from the deep south handicap my grammer so severely that i can not make words plural or am I missing a tense? In vicky my homeland the Confederate States of America needs to win its independence in The Southern war of Independence ( or the civil war, if your a yankee) so we can get our own vernacular officialy recognized as a seperate version of english..........( I lost my train of southern thought):rofl::rofl:

But seriously fora, is that a word?

"Fora" is the correct Latin plural of "forum". But just because you loan a word from a different language, doesn't mean you loan the entire grammar of that language. The Oxford Dictionary says that "forums" is the correct English plural: http://www.askoxford.com/concise_oed/forum
