I like the Zapatista flag.

Small point: why does the Union Jack still incorporate a long defunct flag of Ireland? And you're right - why was Wales omitted from it? Here in the Republic of Ireland the Union Jack is kindly referred to as 'The Butcher's Apron'. No offence.aardfrith wrote:

I'm not impressed with either the simplicity of the England flag or the current Union Flag, which shows three of the four Home Nations. Where's Wales, for God's sake?

Strange that the England flag and not the British Union Jack is on the options list. Still, English flag all the way. Bit basic, but that's good. Meant it was easier to daub on things in the middle ages.
I also quite like the Falkland flag, maybe they should put a sheep on the Union Jack to symbolise Wales. The Nepalese flag is quite cool too.

The Welsh bit looked stupid
Red White Blue flags are boring...because everyone copied Brittain's flag..which is cool.
But the easiest on the eye for me, is the one i have tatooed on my right arm...
Obá!

Italy of course
Canada's flag is the best. Maple syrup anyone? If you voted otherwise NO BACON FOR YOU.
From the list, i vote for Canada. Who blame else than Canada?
But generally i vote for our old one! Its form the K&K monarchy around 1900! We were a huge empire, conquering the world!

Klopstokia!
USA - got it tattooed on me with E.G.A. over layed ---- OORAH
pfft... The british flag is just a lame ripoff of the Icelandic flag (Anyone saying vica versa will get an axe stuck in his skull)
Wales wasn't a seperate entity come the union, it was a part of England, and therfore got no special mention. Have you seen the different flags they were going to use to symobilise it? The Commonwealth of England and Ireland flag was quite snazzy.

Italy for the win.
I've always been partial to the jacks, I'm hard pressed to decide between UK and AUS though, but for the poll I went with UK just for the sake of it's simplicity
Many people choose flags according to their origines or country of citizenship...many, not most..but it still ruins the fun. I am of Armenian descent and this:
isn't actually my favourite (although the definitions for each colors are kinda cool)
My favourite are the American and Swedish ones (in that order)
but Albania looks cool too:

You posted an archaic flag featuring the standard of Ireland. I wasn't talking about Wales.$teiner wrote:

norway!!!
I'd have to say United Flag (or Jack), apart from it having 4 flags merged into it it is on more other flags than any other.
noooooooooorway!!!!
