Flags I least like:

  • North-Central America would be Haiti (I feel like it would’ve been better if they put a national symbol instead of the coat of arms over a white background)
  • South America would be Colombia, Venezuela and Ecuador, which mutually make each other worse by being the same (though I see why they are and I respect it)
  • Europe would be Kazakhstan (still fire, but the one of the worse among the good ones)
  • Asia would be Maldives (good, but the color contrast bothers me a bit)
  • Oceania would be Fiji (I don’t really like the use of a smaller Union Jack as a canton)
  • Africa would be Zambia (I love the symbolism in this one, but I feel like it’s a bit awkwardly arranged)

Least favorite out of all of those would be Haiti.

What happened to the Antarctica flag?

buddy that’s not— Freedom House is a trustworthy source

Maybe “authoritarian” is a little too harsh but there’s limited freedoms in Singapore.

Anyways, if you want to have this conversation then it’d have to be in DMs because Chess.com doesn’t like politics.

Antarctica doesn’t actually have any countries so I didn’t include it. But ok.

Best Antarctica flag:

I feel like alot of ppl think we're strict but tbh, it's not. Irs a free, nice, clean and fun country, as long as you follow the rules, you aren't cooked. Our rules aren't too hard to follow, and social media always spreads rumours that aren't true (like "you can't sing in public" BUD I SING EVERYDAY AND I HAVENT BEEN IN JAIL YET)

I don't think it's politics
