I kinda like it … a cartoon tiger flying in the clouds 
It only lasted a short while before the Japanese occupation/colonization, 1895 - 1945…

Yeah, Hobart has it as his avatar. 
And you can get it on t-shirts here (I’ve got a couple). I don’t remember if I bought them directly from Hobart or from someone he kindly put me in touch with – it was a while back.
What is the real history behind that flag though?
I thought the whole idea of declaring a republic at that time was in opposition to the Japanese. I thought the users of that flag were actually Qing loyalists?
Does anyone know more baout this?
What a coincidence. I added my new avatar last night. A version of the original Formosa flag anyway.
