this one 🏳️⚧️
I quite like the flag of Tanzania
And also Nauru, which is really helpful of you want to remember which hemisphere Nauru is (just barely) located on
Mozambique for sure, I’m not from there, never been there, don’t even really want to go, idt I’ve even met someone from there, but that flag with the AK goes so hard I want it on a shirt.
Nobody has mentioned Kyrgyzstan yet
The holy boule ball
The flag of the Chinook Nation is one I recall seeing and thinking it was very unique, memorable, and aesthetically pleasing.
I also like the trident on the flag of Barbados.
Edit: fixed link
Japan, just a red dot
The old one was better!
The old one is also seen as as bad as the flag of Nazi Germany in East and Southeast Asia. Imperial Japan was extremely brutal, and the use of the rising sun flag in modern times is a symbol of fascism in Japan, like the swastika.
Vietnam:
Angola:
Nepal for originality:
I thought the Angola flag looked bad ass so I looked the country up on Wikipedia. This struck me as a bit odd.
“Angola achieved independence in 1975 as a one-party Republic, but the country descended into a devastating civil war the same year, between the ruling People’s Movement for the Liberation of Angola (MPLA), backed by the Soviet Union and Cuba; the insurgent National Union for the Total Independence of Angola, an originally Maoist and later anti-communist group supported by the United States and South Africa”
That is odd, aaand now I have to do a deep dive on the Angolan civil war, great. Lol
Sychelles:
Bhutan:
Bhutan would have had the best flag if someone colored it in.
it’s cheating of you put a dragon.
where’s buthan-Wales dragon alliance?
Seconding Seychelles, such a cool flag.
State flag, but: Maryland’s got an absolute banger, imo.
I was refraining from posting this, so I’m very glad someone else did. Back when we were masked up, I always appreciated the Maryland flag masks the most and made sure to compliment their wearers.
Agreed. It always makes me think of Nascar, lol. But the other half represents a pro-Confederate family, and I’d love to hear someone explain how the city of Baltimore has continued to accept that. “Bigger fish to fry” and “not wanting to alienate racists” is all I can come up with.
I think with a lot of stuff like that, most people don’t care. Like I assume it’s the red and white side that you’re talking about but idk, and for sure I never see racists flying either set of colors which is why I think no one cares.
The Confederate flag didn’t fall out of favor primarily due to its meaning in the 1800’s, but moreso due to the contemporary associations.
Kazakhstan 🇰🇿
Very nice!

Someone else mentioned Seychelles, so I’ll also throw in the rather awesome, Jamaica:
To my knowledge, Jamaica’s is the only national flag to not contain red, white or blue.
Oh wow, that’s cool. Didn’t know that :-)
The flag of Switzerland is always a plus.
Thinking outside the box: Nepal 🇳🇵
Flag of Iran, or the flag of the Kingdom of Hejaz (gone). Nothing political about those choices in particular, i just think their flags are the prettiest.
Iran flag is peak design.
really pushing the tricolour to new levels.
those stylised letters really give them a cool aesthetic. regardless of what’s written. peak graphic design.
