Yep, what you said.

are people in your neighborhood putting up flags for where they're from, or where their families were from originally?

i think if you want to, maybe just one or two -- i suspect plenty of the immigrants families have more complicated backgrounds too, but are just focusing on their most recent origins/national identity :).

I don't do flags at all. But now you're tempting me. But wherever would I find one of these?

Galicia. The one in Europe, not the one in Spain. It doesn't exist anymore.
