I was looking at an atlas and I saw a bunch of flags in it. I like to look at those. And I thought of this discussion to discuss flags you like and flags you dislike.

Please comment on the flags and not the countries. Thank you.

DISCUSS!FINALLY GOT THE DANG THING TO EDIT

I've always thought the French tri-color was pretty cool, if only because it's pretty emblematic without needing any kind of embellishment; it's France.

Also the Union Jack, the Welsh wyvern flag, Swedish flag, and China's current flag.
Because I love OT thiiiiis much, pictures of all of 'em

I think the flag of the Kingdom of Prussia looks pretty cool. Most historical empires had cool looking flags or other such symbolism.

Love the Norwegian flag. Just something about it that is so incredibly appealing to me.

Beyond the relevance to my own politics, I genuinely like this flag. (In fact, I sometimes wonder if my politics exist purely to gain access to the flag!) It's very striking and dynamic, and cuts past the faff that a lot of flags entertain.

I can't think of any that I dislike, particularly, though. I'm tempted to suggest the Union Flag, although I suspect that may just be bitterness on my part, rather than any particular considered aesthetic objection.

She said "flag", not "politics".

I quite like the Soviet flag, as it happens. It's quite simple, quite understated. A lot of flags that introduce iconography become very crass, too showy, but it's very restrained.
 
I love the flag of New Mexico. Simple, bright, viibrant and simple.

I really like the Bhutanese flag. Bhutan is called Druk Yul, "The Land of the Thunder Dragon".
