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.
