Look at the Soviet Union coat of arms (used as far back as 1936), then look at the flag of the United Nations (established 1945) and tell me you don't see any marked similarity.

Now I'm sorry, but that sort of thing doesn't strike me as a funny coincidence.

The United Nations, or UN, is an international organization established in 1945 and now made up of 191 states. With the exception of the Holy See, the sole permanent observer state, all internationally recognized independent countries are members. Other political entities, notably the Republic of China (Taiwan), Saharawi Arab Democratic Republic (Western Sahara), and Palestine, have de facto independence and/or some international diplomatic recognition from selected states, but are not UN members. See also: United Nations member states.

Naw, that ain't a one-world government. It's just a governmental organization that's been given jurisdiction over 191 of the 201 internationally-recognized nations of the world.

Most notably, China and Vatican City are the only formal "nation-states" which are not U.N. members. The others are: 6 de-facto independent countries (Abkhazia, Nagorno-Karabakh, Northern Cyprus, Somaliland, South Ossetia and Transnistria) and 2 entities recognized by many countries but not de-facto independent (Palestine and Western Sahara).


Just thought I'd brighten up your day. =)
