Ever wondered about the stories behind flags or found yourself questioning some design choices? Today, we delve deep into the fascinating world of flag design, exploring proposals that made us cringe and some that deserved more spotlight. Remember, it's all subjective, and no offense is intended!
*🚩 Worst Flag Proposals:*
1. France's emoji-like attempt that left us scratching our heads.
2. Germany's color combo mishap: Thank you, German Government!
3. Réunion's unofficial proposal resembling an elementary school drawing.
4. India's forgotten 1904 proposal with color inconsistencies.
5. United Ireland's confusing 1928 proposal - can you guess the country?
6. Russia's razor-looking flag proposal by Andrew Khlobystin.
7. Egypt's 1952 Nile River flag that didn't quite make the cut.
8. Jamaica's rejected fancy logo-like proposal.
9. Kuwait's 1906 proposal that never quite looked like a flag.
10. Bolivia's Minecraft-patterned Wiphala Proposal.
...and many more oddities!
*🚩 Best Flag Proposals:*
1. Belgium's action-packed 2008 proposal: Inspired by Minecraft?
2. Canada's 1965 flag with 10 maple leaves: A missed opportunity?
3. Hong Kong's yinyang-like flag that reflects Far Eastern culture.
4. Greenland's Nordic cross-themed designs: A missed chance for green.

    @asherl5902 The whipala is still official, but as it only represents the people of the Andes, they also made a new flag official to represent the people from the lowlands of the country. It is a white flag with a patuju in the middle. Hence, the name "Bandera de la flor de patuju". Now, going back to my original comment, it would be daft for the flag that represents bolivia as a whole to have parts of the flag that only represent one part of the country without also including the other, a problem that is avoided if the original flag remains untouched as the colours in it already simolize something from diferent parts of the country, thus the country as a whole

    As a national flag for Brazil i agree that Julio's design isn't good, but as a flag for the state of São Paulo it fits right in and is quite iconic, i'm biased since i'm paulista and have a large one hanging on my room wall, but seeing it all over the capital city i think it is quite neat. Also during the 1932 civil war they did some cool variations of it.

    6:44 Hong Kong didn't gain independence in 1997; the sovereignty was transferred to China. Not only that, the remaining autonomy that Hong Kong did have has been increasingly overpowered by Beijing in the recent years. The (bauhinia) flower flag was actually an implicit homage to the Chinese flag: same red tone, and the five stars

It was called the 'Canadian Unity" flag. The intent was to include Quebec in the national flag. The Quebec flag is a blue and white fleur-de-lis design.

    2:25 ok, Im gonna hope this is the last time I put a comment, I don’t wanna spam I promise: This Design was actually first used a while back. Like pre1900 back. The kingdom of The Netherlands, as you may know, has a Red-White-Blue tricolor flag. (During the revolution Orange-White-Blue, but nobody really needs to know that right now.) The flag that ended up flying over the Netherlands was a very influential flag, which the Napoleonic French used in their revolution (just tipped sideways), and the Russians, since the Czar liked how it looked, adopted this: as Russians Civil flag. It went on to inspire many Slavic flags, as most likely stated in that video on flag design this guy made, (props to you Btw) and the French inspired most other tricolors. And what do Ya know? I’ve commented twice. I will try to make this the last time.

    The Canadian proposal with the 10 maple leaves representing 10 provinces has a striking similarity with the flag of the Swiss canton of Valais / Wallis with 13 stars representing 13 districts within the canton. I suspect it was an immigrant from the Valais making that proposal. Given the fact that the flag with the stars appeared first in the early 16th century, I wonder how much this flag influenced other countries adopting stars representing their different states... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coat_of_arms_of_Valais

    In 1898, the UK, obtained a 99 year lease for the New Territories region of its colony of Hong Kong. The colony faced an uncertain future as the end of the New Territories lease approached, and Governor Murray MacLehose raised the question of Hong Kong's status with Deng Xiaoping in 1979.[67] Diplomatic negotiations with China resulted in the 1984 Sino-British Joint Declaration, in which the United Kingdom agreed to transfer the colony in 1997 and China would guarantee Hong Kong's economic and political systems for 50 years after the transfer.
