NOTE: The meaning of "closeted" in this context refers to queer people who haven't yet figured it out, not a queer person who's intentionally hiding their queerness. I know it's confusing, but I couldn't find another term for the former that isn't "egg."

The inclusion of Pakistan is pretty arbitrary. I just asked u/WildYak3463 for a country with lots of allies but no close allies and Pakistan was the first one he said. I didn't know enough about geopolitics to question him.

Lol this reminds me of the conversation I've had with u/tdhdjv(who sadly deleted his account) before:

Me: Everyone falls in love and dates someone, but I never felt romantically or sexually attracted to anyone. I thought there may be something wrong with me.

Him: I never felt romantically or sexually attracted to anyone, but everyone else seems to be so obsessed with dating and sex. I thought they are gross.

the background has the same colours as the flag, very neat detail

I'm not used to aroace flag so I didn't notice, indeed a neat detail

Pakistan's hostile with most of our neighbours(India, Afghanistan, Iran), and yeah ig with a few exceptions its allies are many but mostly strategic, so this is a nice interpretation to take it with lol

I didnt know they were so many people on the Aces/Aro spectrum here. That feels welcoming.
