Guyana formerly British, Guyana, it is the only English
speaking country in South America. Guyana is 82,978 square
miles, slightly smaller than Idaho. Guyana's population is
a mere 650,000 people. Almost 1/2 million Guyanese have
already emigrated to North America, mostly to the USA, where a
100,000 of them have become American citizens and passport
holders. The time has come for all Guyanese to become
American citizens; and for Guyana to become a legally
incorporated part of the USA, either as a state, commonwealth or
territory of the USA! For more details and a view of the
new flag please visit <www.GuyanaUSA.org>.

I haven't heard of this movement before, to establish Guyana
as a US state. However, they have a flag - the Guyanan
pattern, simplified into red, white and blue.

I glanced through the website briefly, and they say very
explicitly that as a state Guyana would retain their current
flag. Based on that I'd say that the red-white-blue version is
only that of the movement, not of a notional "State of
Guyana."

The design of the flag of Guyana, USA! reflects the
close ties that bind Guyana and the United States. The New Guyana
Flag is the official symbol of Guyana, USA! a political
organization devoted to the legal incorporation of Guyana into
the USA.
The new flag was created by Guyana, USA! to in order to rally
support for the concept of an American Guyana. The flag may one
day be adopted as the national symbol and flag of Guyana, USA!
The New Guyana Flag is red, white and blue. Emphasizing the close
ties that bind Guyana to the USA. The flag is not typically flown
