  Flag of the Republic of China - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Five Races Under One Union flag was used as a national flag from the inception of the Republic in 1912 until the demise of the warlord government in 1928.
The ROC flag is not commonly seen at international gatherings in which the PRC participates due to pressure from the PRC over the political status of Taiwan and resulting minimal political influence of the ROC in such circles.
The flag of the Republic of China has begun to symbolize the existence of a past and possibly future unified China, and as such the government of the PRC has made it clear that for Taiwan to change the flag would be a major provocation in favor of Taiwan independence.

As soon as the roc sees you he will fly away from fear, but you must walk on till you come to a castle covered with plates of gold, studded with jewels.
If a roc, an eagle, a griffin, a flying elephant, a winged sea-horse, had suddenly appeared, and, taking him on its back, carried him bodily into the heart of the 'Salwanners,' it would have been to him as an everyday occurrence, in comparison with what he now beheld.
The Fairy Peribanou had fled into the inmost cavern with Prince Ahmed: the Roc had whisked away Sindbad the Sailor out of the Valley of Diamonds out of sight, far into the clouds: and there was everyday life before honest William; and a big boy beating a little one without cause.

 Taiwan Communique no. 103
To the Chinese, the Kuomintang and the ROC flag became symbols of that decades-long conflict.
The society became the KMT in 1919 and proclaimed its flag to be the Chinese flag in 1921.
So let it be clear, the flag the ROC uses is not a sacred symbol of the Chinese revolution — and of course we might argue what the revolution itself has to do with Taiwan, at that time a Japanese colony — it is a sacred symbol of the KMT.

The red color of the flag is the symbol of the revolution, signifying that the political power of the People's Republic of China is achieved through bloodshed and lives laid down by countless revolutionary martyrs who marched forward wave upon wave in the heroic struggles for the revolution.
In the upper-left corner of the flag there are five-pointed yellow stars, of which the big one represents the Communist Party of China and the four small ones the people of all ethnic groups of the country.

 Chinese Taipei Summary
Due to the insistence of the People's Republic of China (PRC) under its version of the One-China policy, ROC is forced not to use "Republic of China" or "Taiwan" to imply any independent sovereignty when participating in international organizations (see political status of Taiwan).
The government of the ROC considers Zhōngguó Táibĕi offensive, as it places Taiwan on the same level as Hong Kong, China, and Macao, China.
Chinese Taipei was also the term being used by Major League Baseball for the ROC team that participated in the 2006 World Baseball Classic, and will presumably be the case in the future.

Similar to why Dr. Sun had opposed the original 5-color flag used in the north during the Republican era.  He didn't like the fact that the Han color was on top of the other minority colors.  He believed in equality for all Chinese, regardless of ethnicity and tribe.

His songs were full of passion, anger, and wit, a "one man Clash." This was not, however, what the major record companies wanted at the time - the punk attitudes of the late-Seventies had long since given way to the escapist rise of the New Romantics.
The album's opening track, "The Milkman of Human Kindness," for instance, was a love song of the most compassionate variety, illustrating the very real humanist approach which informs his music.
At the time of his death, in 1967, however, Guthrie left behind some 2500 unfinished songs, the lyrics to which were belatedly discovered many years later in the archives.

In a follow-up to a previous Roc Report, former Ozzy bassist Bob Daisely says he is disappointed a Los Angeles Federal Court dismissed his lawsuit against Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne for unpaid performance royalties.
Daisley and former drummer Lee Kerslake still receive songwriting royalties for the songs they wrote for Ozzy’s first two solo albums, “Blizzard of Ozz” and “Diary of a Madman”, but their contention is performance royalties.
The song “Not Be Forgotten” was inspired by the events of September11th and Arnold says it will not be on the album because he doesn’t want fans to misinterpret the lyrics and instigate violence against U.S. citizens of Middle Eastern descent.

Our destination was the base supply store, which was brand new and a vast improvement over the old one, which had been located right next to our barracks but consisted of a tent and concrete structure located on a platform perched atop the base perimeter wall.
Inside the store we were handed our Whampoa Duffel Bags: large, dark green bags with the ROC army insignia printed on the back, into which we stuffed our toothbrushes, toothpaste, wash-pans, wash-cloths, shower sandals, sewing kits, brushes, and the army's preferred brand of laundry detergent.

I think one would be hard-pressed to find a person that didn’t agree that the history and culture of indigenous and previous immigrants to Taiwan were under-represented under martial law; Chen and the DPP have done much to correct the imbalance by rewriting textbooks and tossing out curricula that are not ‘Taiwanese’ enough.

Although the best-known band of the early Australian punk scene of the late '70s was the Saints, the first band to wave the punk rock flag in the land down under was Radio Birdman.
Loud and snotty, with Younger bellowing his guts out and Tek on a search-and-destroy mission with his guitar, this was a great debut that set the stage for the impending deluge of Aussie punk bands waiting in the wings.
After the release of their debut LP, Radios Appear (the title comes from a lyric in the Blue Öyster Cult song "Dominance and Submission"), in Australia a year later, Radio Birdman seemed poised to break Aussie punk worldwide.

On standout songs like "Kool Roc Bass" and "I Used to Fall in Love," the group casts off pretensions and allows real emotion and melodies to shine through the tough exterior.
I must say that the group's second studio album is better because the music is more diversified and mixes other genres of music into their sound.
They tend to talk a bit much in some of their songs (Linkin Park's Step Up illustrates the highest amount of monologue/non-singing you should have in a song).
