seems like years ago chess.com would list the country name next to the flag of members? There are so many players from around the world im always curious which part of the world thier from. anyone else think it would be a good feature to have added?...hmm..

 There arent too much flags, most of them are from well known countries, altho some people like using flags from countries which are out of the solar system.

Also, flags may be fake, just so you know....

It's said Carlsen learned all of them when he was a toddler. Not a bad start.
