Wales (not Whales) aside, one of the reasons that there are so many coats of arms/local flags, is that until relatively recently, there were lots of City States. Each had their own ruler and alliances...which tended to change a lot. So what you see, for historical reasons, is often the flag/coat of arms of the old city state before it amalgamated with other small staes to be come part of a country.

The "4 red stars" on a proposed new, New Zealand flag are the Southern Cross, a prominent constellation seen only in the Southern Hemisphere and features in other flags as well, e.g., Brazil, Australia.

My understanding is that the Japanese “sunburst” flag is in fact the naval ensign, while the rising sun is and has always been the flag of Japan. The naval ensign of the UK 🇬🇧 is the Union Jack 🇬🇧 and it features as the upper left corner of some countries (Eg, Australia 🇦🇺 , New Zealand 🇳🇿 etc), while for The United States 🇺🇸 the ensign is the navy blue square 🟦 with white stars ⭐️. Anyway, naval ensign versus 🆚 national flag. It may be a thing.
