    Wales.
    There’s something seriously wrong with that dragon.
    It’s got a tail as its tongue, a hook-nose, fluffy ears,
    an air cushion frontal neck, a fishnet back neck
    and a look so annoyed that
    if flag dragons could talk I’d swear it would say
    “Don’t look at me, my mom put me up for this”.

      At least it has a dragon. Scotland’s flag is sorely missing a unicorn, and others are lacking in mythical creatures too :-/

    Yours obviously. Terrible design and awful colour choice. Not completely surprising from such a backwards country but I have to admit you raised the ugliness bar to a whole new level. Matches well with your ridiculous anthem and your stupid traditions (incest and cannibalism are still a thing I’ve heard).

    My country on the other hand… now that’s some nice flag design: good palette, great inspiration, high symbolic value. Very nice. Pairs well with our melodic anthem and our respectable traditions (like ritual ‘feast of the elders’ and ceremonial family acts of love)

    All the tricolor ones. At least put something there ffs, Serbia and Slovakia did and it’s still not great but much better.

    Australia & New Zealand. The two are too similar and IMO keeping the Union Jack on your flag while being an independent nation adds to the confusion. Canada had the right idea with the maple leaf.

    Basically any flag that’s just 3 colored bars. They’re so boring and there are so many that it’s hard to even differentiate them.

    Flags should say something about your country.

      They do, the colors usually have some meaning attached. Also, as a kid, would you rather draw Bhutan’s flag or Ukraine’s?

        Um Dragon flag definitely! Easy to draw is not on my list of criteria.

        Also, I know the colors usually have meaning, it’s just so boring.

        I would 100% pick Bhutan’s flag as a kid. Flags should be simple but come on, that dragon is awesome.

      A cross isn’t exactly that much better tbh. So you are or used to be some kind of Christian country. Great.

        Believe it or not that does actually narrow it down quite a bit.

    Bosnia and Herzegovina 🇧🇦 is so unbalanced it just feels wrong. At least you can’t say it’s boring.

    I’ve always been annoyed at Ireland’s because it replaced a much nicer flag.

      I think it’s a rule that countries that have been conquered by the french have to use those colours.

      The worst part of the UK flag is they didn’t put a dragon on it.

    Imo good contenders are Nicaragua and El Salvador for being so incredibly generic. At least other Central American countries have more unique designs.
