The Top 15 World Flags

Which flag will you choose? We try to parse the best 15 flags...in the entire world

The Top 15 World Flags
Wikipedia

Think of how many countries are in the world. Multiply that number by 1, and you'll get the number of country flags. Large number, right? How could you pick the best. Well, I'm going to try. After careful consideration, looking through every flag in the more than 50 in the world, I think I've reached a decision. Lets begin our journey.

15. Beautiful Belize

The color combination of blue, white, and red, sets this country flag apart from most. But perhaps its most defining feature is the two baseball players on the front. The left is using an ax, presumably for larger contact surface area. This microcosmic storyline is just one of the many wonders found in the Belize flag.



14. Interesting Italy

Some may say that Italy's flag and Ireland's flag look far too similar. This is ok.



13. Great Georgia

The 5 plus symbols on the flag is more than any other flag. White and red colors are unique among every world flag. What more could you want? Get out there and enjoy the world.



12. Quintessential Qatar

Qatar has the pointiest flag in the world. Additionally, it has the most Olympics-construction-related deaths in recent history.



11. Majestic Macedonia

Macedonia, named after Mao Zedong, has a flag that resembles Maoist propaganda images from the early 1900s. Sometimes, you just have to stop and smell the flowers.



10. Unnervingly-good United States of America

You'd be hard pressed to find another flag that utilizes these three colors, let alone so effectively!!



9. Neat Nepal

Nepals flag is really an eye catcher. The blue stripes, adjacent to the red fill, inserted with white stars, are unique. The shape is, I suppose, maybe different. But red white and blue is a very interesting color exploration.



8. Lovely Lebanon

Everybody loves trees!!!!



7. Crazy Canada

Everybody loves leaves!!!



6. Sweet Saint Vincent and the Grenadines

I do not really know what this country is. St Vincent is a critically acclaimed musical and visual artist. Perhaps she owns this country.



5. Perfect Poland

Red and white look great together--the only thing that ~might~ be missing is a touch of blue. But these two bold colors are an inventive way to say "Hi, I'm Poland!".



4. Innovative Indonesia

Some may say that Indonesia's flag and Poland's flag look far too similar. This is ok.



3. Stunning Seychelles

Abandoning any precedent from any other country flag, Seychelles' flag incorporates a varying color spectrum, with eye-popping angles. The color adjacencies are respectful, and the artist utilized proper proportioning. Seychelles is a very, very new country, and its flag echoes its modern beginnings.



2. Cool Cote D'Ivoire

Some may say that Core D'Ivoire's flag and Ireland's flag look far too similar. This is ok.


1. Unbridled United States, pt 2

This US flag has an extra star, putting it far ahead of any competition. Good job!!



Of course, nobody has the perfect solution to the Classic Top Flag Conundrum. I just hope I helped a little. Remember, a little bit of heart goes a long way.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
