[Misc] Sexiest / ugliest country flags?

[marlowe]

I quite like the flag of French Sudan (November 24, 1956 - April 4, 1959), despite its hint of colonialism (now the Republic of Mali)...

I like the absurdity and unassuming nature of the flag of Pereira, Colombia, it's main feature being a hat on a stick...

 

[METALMICKY]

Quiz question, which country (I believe it's unique) has the only non rectangular or square flag?

That symbol is widely used in Latin America. You will also find it on the flag of El Salvador, for example. It is based on the hat worn by some in the French revolution and so represents freedom.

Or a used condom being gingerly disposed of with a lolly stick.

And keeping it topical, it can also be seen on the flag of the US Senate (minus the stick)...

It may be sacrilege, but, I do like the Welsh flag. Proper Dragon looking Dragon.

Always taken a shine to the Greece flag
Think just reminds me of good holidays there
Light blue is also a refreshing colour

Kiribati:

The rising sun in the centre is meant to represent the countries position over the equator. While the 17 rays on the sun represent the 16 Gilbert Islands and the Island of Banaba.
The three wavy white lines are said to be the three island chains in the Pacific Ocean, the Gilbert, Phoenix & Line Islands. And finally the Gold Frigate bird = Command of sea, power & freedom.

So not only does it look nice, it all has meaning.

Although I think the USA flag is OK, I think it looks great on clothes. In fact, I have one on now.

I know this will wind up a few on here, but it's this one for me. Lovely colours, totally unique, and, come on guys: A MASSIVE DRAGON.
