    My opinion? Our house from the Source should have been the main base in the First. It would actually give purpose to the thing besides being an overly expensive lawn ornament.

    Then why does it have a flag? pretty much every main city before hand had its won flag while endgame hubs didn't. Plus Eulmore has its own system of government, an associated territory (Kholusa, granted that would also apply to Revenant's Toll and Idyllshire), a second and third area and other things that would normally be expected of a City then an endgame hub.

    (Agree on the Crystarium though)

    I feel like this is a stealth request for instanced housing :P

    Regardless, It would had been rather strange for an entirely building to windup in another world

    I had to check this in-game, but the reason it has a flag is because it's part of its own sovereign nation. The City-States use the GC flags for every area in La Noscea, The Black Shroud, and Thanalan. The Ishgard flag is used for all the areas of Coerthas, which Ishgard controls. Once you get to free areas like Dravania or the SoC, there's an aetheryte symbol because they're not under the control of a sovereign nation. It just so happens that Mor Dhona and Idyllshire are both outside of the control of either the GCs or Ishgard, and don't QUITE have a system of government there, the closest being the goblins who... just showed up. Eulmore, meanwhile, WAS a kingdom that sort of... stopped giving a crap about its territory.

    Meanwhile, Rhalrg's Reach DOES have a flag, the Ala Mhigan flag, because the whole of Gyr Abania IS techincally Ala Mhigan territory. What I AM puzzled is that the Doman Enclave DOESN'T have the Doman flag, considering it's pretty much New Doma.

    And looking at my teleport list for The First, BOTH the Crystarium and Eulmore have flags, because they're both nations with a particular form of government and some sort of control over its area. But Lakeland and Kholusia DON'T have either the Eulmoran or Crystarian flags, Kholusia because Eulmore pretty much gave up the rest of the island out of disinterest (note: the dwarves aren't Eulmorians, even though they live in Kholusia, and the people of Stilltide and Wright aren't Eulmorans, either. It's kind of a plot point that Eulmore is just a city, not, essentially, kingdoms with land like the others), but Lakeland IS actually odd because the Crystarium has THREE outposts there, although the tiny hamlet in Lakeland may not consider itself part of The Crystarium.

    TL;DR: Eulmore has a flag because it's a city-state WITH a flag and the presence or absence of a one does not make an endgame hub (read: Rhalgr's)

    What does a flag have to do with anything? Ala Mhigo has a flag. Doma has a flag. These are still not used as main hub cities.

    Oh this sounds neat, but many of us wouldn't have a main base!
