Which countries do you think have the worst flags?

Question

We'll do subnational entities another time.

The ones I particularly don't like are

1. Bosnia-Hercegovina - the cut off stars make this one look especially poor.

2. St Lucia - I get what they're trying to do, but I don't think it works very well in a flag.

3. Nauru - this one looks like it's upside down.

4. As does this one, Zambia...

5. This one looks like it was cooked up in a hurry, and it's far too busy... Kazakhstan

6. Ecuador - nice colour scheme, but the proportions look awful - too similar to Colombia's, too...

I am really hesitating to answer because national flags are really valuable and being a patriotic person myself I hate the idea of judging which country's flag I find unappealing. It just feels very disrespectful to me. Yet for the sake of answering I am sharing my genuine thought, I really don't mean to offend anyone.

Pakistan. 🇵🇰 Mainly because of the position of the star being scientifically inaccurate. The star is inside the circle of the moon so if this happened in real life the start would be behind the crescent moon and not visible to us. Compared to the Turkish flag where the centre of the star is outside of the moon and it is 'scientifically accurate'... that's not the case for a Pakistani flag. Of course no one ever said a flag has to scientifically make sense, but that's just my two cents.

I think you can critique a flag from a design perspective, without it being disrespectful, as you've just demonstrated.

You've given a good reason for your opinion, and not said it's because you hate the place, the people, what it stands for etc. I think that's fine, and contrasts well with a couple of other opinions, which are just trolling, and attempting to stir :)

I feel like being a Bangladeshi anyone could easily think I chose Pakistani flag out of all countries because of our country's history with Pakistan and the fact that it USED to be OUR flag too when we were a part of Pakistan before. That's why I was kinda afraid someone could take it as my attempt to hate on Pakistan which is not true at all.

But I guess I can't critique much when our own flag looks like someone just colored the Japanese flag red on MS Paint, lol. 😂 With the extra bummer that the red circle isn't exactly at the centre of the rectangle, it's slightly on the left and you need precise measuring to get its position and ratio accurate.

It's quite distinctive, though - it's hard to mix it up with another country's flag, once you've seen it, and been told whose it is.

Yeah that's a good thing. Before achieving Independence though, the flag originally had a yellow map inside the red circle (because Bangladesh wasn't a country yet and the map showed the border of land as well to show which country's it's supposed to be) and I'm GLAD didn't become the official flag afterwards. Bangladeshi map is complex I can't imagine having to draw it inside the flag.

As I recall, Nauru is close to Australia. I have never visited, but as I understand it, everything in Australia is upside down because they are below the equator, so. . . Nauru is in a similar position and, of course, their flag would be upside down! However, all the residents would be standing upside down so, when they look at the flag, it looks fine! :) :) :)

Put me down for Zambia. You are going to think less of me - and I always considered you a friend on this site - but I put it all at risk to tell you that I actually like all of the other ones on your list.

Grant, that they are not necessarily my favorites. In fact, I never noticed the two cut off stars on the Bosnia-Herzegovina flag until you pointed it out to me. However, I actually like the colors and I don't find the designs off putting.

Zambia, on the other hand, looks like somebody had a piece of green cloth and were told they had to make a flag in a half hour. So they haphazardly stapled a couple of pieces of spare parts that they had laying around to the end of the flag and then said, "Eh, good enough."

So, we are agreed on Zambia and now I will go, hanging my head in shame, out in public. There, no doubt to have people in the grocery store quietly gossiping behind my back, "There's the guy who likes the flag of Kazakhstan." With their children quietly saying, "Ewwwwww."

However, in penance, I offer that I remain an ardent fan of the British flag. Even, and I say this quietly so don't tell my friends, even better than my own American flag. (One star per state is going to get awfully cluttered if we ever get up to 80 or so states.)

So, you have revealed my secret shame. Hope you're happy.

Vexillology is pretty interesting. What I've learned about designing flags is that simplicity and meaning are key.

Point being - if a bunch of kids in some patriotic event would not be able to draw their nation's flag, then it's a failed flag.
Complex shapes, symbols and patterns should be left for the coat of arms.

And for fuck's sake - NO text on a flag. Font, script and even language is subject to change - but the symbolism of a flag is not. The British flag has changed fairly little from the 1700's but people still know what the patterns mean, whereas any writing from that time would be relatively hard to decipher for the modern Brit.

God dammit! I tried to post a picture and accidentally hit submit!
Let's try again

N. AMERICA
St. Lucia's is pretty stupid
Which countries do you think have the worst flags?

S. AMERICA
Colombia (I don't like how the colors are unevenly distributed. WAY too much yellow.

Europe
The Albanian flag is really ugly and stupid. I HATE that color scheme. It makes me think the country is in a state of war and bloodshed.

MIDDLE EAST
United Arab Emirates (I don't like that red stripe on the side)

Which countries do you think have the worst flags?

ASIA
Sorry @CubsterShura, but the Bangladesh flag is really stupid. It's just a red circle on green fabric, and the color scheme is HIDEOUS!

AFRICA
I agree with Zambia. What's up with the three stripes in the corner?

OCEANIA
Samoa, since we're only doing sovereign countries. I just feel it's too blank. There is a blue box with stars in the upper left corner, then nothing else. It just looks unfinished.

Which countries do you think have the worst flags?

I actually like the Nauru's flag. It's supposed to represent the location of the island on the map.

How come Japan isn't there at least we color the background green Japan doesn't even do that.

@CubsterShura It looks better on white. Palau's flag is yellow circle on light blue. I'm just not a fan of that green

Answer 83

CubsterShura

Ok so the problem isn't exactly the fact that it's just a red circle against a solid rectangle ("It's just a red circle on green fabric"). The problem is you don't like the color combination (or you don't like green).

Answer 84

ZeussLightningBolt

@CubsterShura Yes. I would have preferred a different color combo

Answer 85

CubsterShura

Lol ok 😂

I dont like the American one, for one, visually speaking. In my opinion, the best flags are simple yet powerful, like the Danish flag, for example, heh.

Indias flag gives me OCD I don’t know why that circle just ruins it all.
Probably America just because of the meaning of it’s flag.

@hellionthesagereborn Different parts have different meanings the one I hate was the stars meant to represent the lives lost in the 50 states during the different wars they had with each other just something i’d never put in a flag.

@hellionthesagereborn well according to the American I spoke with during my uni years the stars represent the lives lost in the 50 states and I quote “ that’s why we put our flag on top of the coffins of our soldiers when they arrive back from afghanistan”.

Yeah, that's incorrect. I've no idea why they would say that. We put the American flag on top of soldiers coffins because they died in service to our country and that is a sign of respect for that sacrifice. I mean I would agree that that would be rather messed up as a symbol, but no its to represent the fifty states of the union, thirteen stripes to represent the original thirteen colonies, white to represent purity and innocence, red to represent valor and fortitude and blue to represent vigilance, perserverance and justice.

@hellionthesagereborn welp... I mean he said his home is in Texas. I hear Texas considers themselves another country? Maybe that’s why?

ignorant people exist everywhere, he probably heard that some where and just accepted it as fact (as people are want to do). Texas doesn't consider themselves a different country, but they do have a lot of pride in their state.
