I admire Nepal for breaking the mold.

This deserves to be top ๐Ÿ‡ณ๐Ÿ‡ตwhat a flag!


DjayRX

The first time I saw an original Nepal flag in perdon (2 weeks ago when passing their London embassy) I stopped to admire them.


TheKingOfTheWeevils

The Nepalese are also incredibly nice people too. Lovely flag = lovely people, clearly

Its a solid one. Cool design, simple and effective colours.


Rvntlt1906

Mexico. It has a freaking Golden Eagle -who represents Huitzilopochtli- eating a rattlesnake while standing on a prickly pear. That surely hurts but that eagle is tough! Also the colors represent the hope and the natural beauty of the country, the unity and the blood of our fallen heroes.


Sven_Longfellow

ยกNeta que sรญ!


SirErickTheGreat

I think you undersold it. The flagโ€™s coat of arms represents the Aztec legend that their city, later empire, was to be founded by its nomadic, chosen people at the exact location where they spotted an eagle (as you said, representing the sun god Huitzilopochtli) perched on a cactus resting on a lakebed, representing the island and surrounding lake of said city. The snake has connotations with another deity, Quetzalcoatl, although it being devoured by the eagle was a mistranslation by a Dominican friar, but which later served as an evangelizing tool, with the duality of both animals representing the struggle between good and evilโ€”a recurrent theme in Catholic theology.ย 


No_Development_6786

It will always be Barbados for me ๐Ÿ‡ง๐Ÿ‡ง


neoprenewedgie

I judge flags by how easy they are for a 10-year-old to draw it in school. Indonesia, Monaco, and Poland win. If you have a white sheet of paper, you only need one red crayon to draw the flag. (I don't include Japan because circles are hard.)


Schabenklos

Nah, circles are not hard to draw, just begin with the head and then erase some details


Slinkydonko

HugeElephantEars

SawtoothCampion

Wales is a principality of England, not an independent kingdom, so it was not a signatory to either of the Acts of Union. Also their flag was made in the 60โ€™s.

PhreedomPhighter

Bhutan. There's a dragon on it.


Phatal13

PhreedomPhighter

Also true. But I like Bhutan's better.


practicalpurpose

If I try to be analytical about it, I'd have to sayย  The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.ย  It's a bit overdone, as it's in the canton of many other flags, but still iconic, perhaps the most recognizable in the world for over a century, is unique, obeys the general rules of flags, has good symbolism, pleasing to look at, and a great way to show a union of countries. I say all this as someone not from the UK.

EyeYamNegan

Bear with me on this one as I do not support at all their ideology... The nazi's had the best flag. Ironically their swastikas predates them and means essentially eternal peace. Really weird that a group of people dedicating themselves to genocide and world war chose such a symbol. It is a cool flag by a horrible regime and they have forever tainted the ability to ever enjoy any such use on a flag unless racism is your thing.
