Counani (Brazil) (1696 words)
Fuligni appears to conclude that a white star should be on the fly from two pieces of evidence: the existence of a star on the coat of arms itself (surrounded by a wreath with the motto below it), and the fact that a later flag was the same minus the fl hoist (see below).
Fuligni attributes the change to the public's identification of fl with the then-rampant anarchist movement that was terrorizing much of Europe at the time.
Fuligni goes on to note the revival of the Counani idea in Paris in the 1990s with a self-described "Constitutional Executive in Exile of the Free State of the Counani," a pseudo-state ostensibly intended to challenge Brazilian treatment of the Indians of Amapa' and environmental damage.
