Sikh Saudi Arabia

For some reason, I wanted to see what if Saudi Arabia was Sikh instead of Muslim, just because, so, here it is.

This flag is meant to represent what would be Saudi Arabia's if it was a Sikh (Khalsa) nation instead of Muslim. The colors are xanthic (yellow) and navy blue because according to the Rehat (Section Three, Chapter IV, Article V, paragraph r), the code of conduct for Sikhs, [...] every gurdwara should be installed the Nishan Sahib (Sikh flag). The cloth of the flag should be either of xanthic or of grayish blue color (navy blue) [...]. The blade on the bottom is the Kirpan, a (usually) short and curved dagger that initiated Sikhs (part of the Khalsa), are required to wear in their dressing code (the 5 Ks).

The text is the "Deg Tegh Fateh" (ਦੇਗ ਤੇਗ਼ ਫ਼ਤਿਹ), the slogan of the Khalsa and an important flag to Sikhism. It is written in the Punjabi language and translating it to English, "Victory to Charity and Arms", that signifies the dual obligations of the Khalsa: The responsibility to provide food, and to provide protection, for the needy and oppressed. This flag took a very long time and a lot of effort to make, and it may have been a little rushed at the end, so if I said something wrong in the symbolism, please correct me! :D
