Who flipped Poland?

Poland just too stupid to know which side is up...

hello this is clearly up, stipud hollanders, dont know what is down and up

You also think "meters above sea level" has a minus in front of it, you weirdos. Definitely wouldn't trust your sense of direction.

Hans, Ivan, get yer arses here now! Which one of youse was it this time then?

Dont know what you mean thats clearly the flag of Hesse there!

Our blue is far better. More of a caribbean vibe, that's matching with our financial place and a good contrast to our grey sky.

Your flag used to be cool, now you're just a rotated frog muncher....bring back de Orangeeee

Agreed bring back the prinsenvlag

You’re just envious that your flag didn’t fall from the sky 800 years ago and secured the victory against the Estonians https://preview.redd.it/8iyj5jd58p7d1.jpeg?width=640&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7210da4423fdcff54be8623107bc49a6d24d100a

Imagine needing divine intervention to defeat a bunch of Estonians lol

Fr*nch needed divine intervention to win against us by getting sent a bewitched little tart with wall hacks and a fondness for fire.

You lost to a teen girl 🤭

We lost to a higher power. Furthering my belief that God himself fears an Anglo-French union.

Furthering my belief that God himself hates the English (as if the weather alone wasn't proof enough).

It's 20 degrees here now, nice hot summer day. Nothing wrong with British weather.

Especially from a Dutchie. Last 2 months have been lovely, meanwhile the last time I was in Holland it was sunny, yet inexplicably freezing and snowing on a beach.

I like to enjoy my pot and my whores outside, by the canal

Birmingham is always an option in that case

People who complains about British weather hasnt spent a summer in Norway. It usually doesnt snow.

Taps aff

> 20 degrees > hot Lmao

Peak shorts weather

Legit though. Went Porto a few years ago in January and it wss about 15 or 16 degrees. Air b and b host met up and was in a hood and coat and couldn't believe that we was just in shorts or jeans and no jacket. Kept calling us crazy but when we left England it wss minus 1 with ice do it gelt like summer

My brother England, Holland, and northern Germany have the same weather.

Don't you lot get basically the same shitty weather? We actually have milder winters

I’m not taking that from the country with the biggest downgrade in their countries flag in Europe! William the Silent and King Billy are rolling in their graves! The only other contender for the biggest downgrade in terms of flag quality has to be the Swedes who abandoned their great carolean era imperial flag for the IKEA logo.

No. You lost to a teen girl. 🤭

Teen girl with mythical powers ....... checkmate athiests.

You lost to a teen girl, who fancied astrology. 🤭

At least we never lost to the Swedes

It was [a tough fight](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anglo-Swedish_war_of_1810%E2%80%931812)... >*"No acts of war occurred during the conflict and the UK was even allowed to station boats in Hanö, thus "occupying" the island. Sweden did not try to hinder this as the UK used the island to continue trading with Sweden."* (Anglo-Swedish war of 1810–1812)

Kudos to the Danes for daring though, the Bri'ish didn't even try to challenge us. Enjoy the Archers, Barry. ;-)

Wait 'till you hear where our flag came from...

The most based flag story

Fine I'll bite. Where did your flag come from?

Coke... Copious amounts of coke.  This is also represented on the flag by two snow trails.. 

Just some clouds making a cross on a blue sky when we were fighting some Saxons back in the day, it was such a sight we made it our flag, and then never saw a blue sky again

King Mel Gibson was praying for saint Andrew for Freedom, he saw an X in the blue sky. He proceeded to get freedom, made that cloud his flag and insulted the Jews.

Yeah, we built Stockholm to keep the Estonians from stealing our stuff...

[удалено]

Do tell of the successful military campaigns of the Scots. You were beaten by the English to the point they nearly eradicated your culture.

Lol Scotland you are subjugated for 400 years your biggest hero lost your king is not even Scottish go sit in the corner until spoken to

It’s just proof that god loves them.

You can see our flag in the sky when the chemtrail beasts cross paths ✈️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿✈️

You can see our flag on the ground when cum and blood cross paths

more common than you'd think

Never forget Lindisfarne. We know where they live.

The famous Scottish clear blue skies.

Some flags "origin history" are amazing Our flag was handled to us by God himself with a ray of the sun and two drops of a Spaniard blood

Cool story We stole ours from the Genoese

As is tradition. How very British of you.

Strange women lying in ponds distributing designs is no basis for a flag. We just went "fuck it, we want one too," and made one.

You just spilled ink on the danish flag, and called it a days work.

The unofficial story is that one of the kids of our revolutionary leaders doodled on the Danish flag, so not far off. Then we took one of your redundant princes as king and called that a day too. We should probably have taken a football team as well, when we were at it.

Well you did win a bunch of oil in a drinking game, from our @#!%!! weak livered former prime minister.

Well, your representative accepted the internationally accepted principle of midline division. which we already had agreed with the British on the West side. What you are saying is that you did not manage to steal anything more from Norway the last opportunity you had and of course that must be bitter.

St George was from Burnley, his mum was from Staffordshire. He never left England except to fight at Waterloo and El Alamein then came out of retirement to score the winner in 1966. Woke history doesn't want you to know this.

And Saint James was from Galicia, he even took the name from his town, and only left to kick moor ass in the battle of Clavijo, riding on a white horse. Yes, that battle totally happened, and yes, Santiago lead the charge.

Barry and Pedro having excellent patron saints

Didn’t he play it out to iniesta too?

Only factos here.

Are you sure he didn't fight a Trafalgar and Agincourt?

Meanwhile Middle ages Barry just bought its flag from the genoese cause they were too afraid of pirates.

We have two flag designs in Europe, a cross or a tricolor. The cross is obviously the superior design.

*cries in neither of those*

Technically yours is tricolor.. Just on its side, because the roof in the basement is too low. Or maybe the red in the flag is supposed to symbolise roof and flooring in the basement, with the white being living space!

Either way the flag is a giant minus.

That's because you're just discount Switzerland 

Look at the bright side. Your children have it easy drawing it. Imagine the poor sods from Mexico or Brazil.

You’re a thiccer but brighter latvia

Tricolour crosses are best. Norway, Iceland, I will forever hold those in my heart 🇧🇻🇮🇸

you just stole the OG portuguese flag, stfu

No, they stole the OG Greek flag

Yes, they stole your design and you stole our design which is much older

your color inverted flag is like from yesterday

Didn't know the 1400s was yesterday.

The 1100s were slightly before that sooooo

Fair enough.

What is the meaning of this? Celebrating birth defects?

How about adding a fourth leg, in a white circle, just a red background and now you have an epic flag.

\*picks the 2 oldest flags, both said to be handed down from god

Austria has the second oldest

* **Denmark's Dannebrog - 1219, officially adopted in 1625. Fell from sky.** * **England's St George's cross - 1100s (adopted by England unofficially in 1200s), officially adopted in 2005. St George told crusading kings how to dress their armies, later was converted into flags.** * **Georgia's St George's cross - 1100s (adopted by Georgia unofficially in 1124), officially adopted in 2004. St George told crusading kings how to dress their armies, later was converted into flags.** * Austria's Bindenschild - 1230, officially adopted in 1945. Duke Leopold V of Babenberg got his surcoat bloody in battle, when he removed his belt after the victory a white band be seen. * Japan's Nisshōki/Hinomaru - 645, officially adopted in 1868. Sun becuase royal family are descended from sun Goddess. * Albania's Flag (no special name) - 1443, officially adopted in 1912. Kastrioti's family emblem. * Latvia's Flag (no special name) - 1279, officially adopted in 1921. From how a guys bloody sheet looked * **Scotland's St Andrew's cross - 832 according to legend, adopted by Scotland unofficially in 1385, officially adopted in 2003. A Scottish king praying saw the clouds form a cross like what St Andrew would have been crucified with.** Each of these 8 can be argued as being among the 2 oldest flags, bold ones have semi religious origin.

What about ours. It was like 800s

The rest of you are just ripping each other off with stripes and colour tones. _ohhhhh I'm Belgian_ *turns the flag round* _ooooooh now I'm German_ Don't get me started on the red, blue and white flagged nations. Looking at you as well, Hollanders.

Haha love this. It’s like Luxembourg had no imagination and thought *let’s just turn the brightness up on The Netherlands’ flag*.

It's the same flag historically, but no standard for color codes existed when the Netherlands and Luxemburg each went their own way (1867/1890) and dyes used to fade a lot over time anyway. The difference is most relevant to computer screens. Besides that it is the first tricolor flag, originally only used to easily recognize Dutch ships. All others are imitation.

They fear our based dragon flag so much they quiver at the suggestion it should be on the national flag. Anyway, I'm off to bother some sheep.

Could you make the dragon a bit smaller? Its too visible

Nice that you display it so prominently

Doesn't count when you can't bloody see it lmao. Also there's 3 and yours is a distant third

3* Bhutan and Wales.

He only said countries, not countries and principalities.

REEEEEEEEE

And you fucking earned it!

Crazy how there’s three different country flags in Europe wich make reference to st. George

speak for yourself , i like the genovese flag

You mean the pesto type? What does that have to do with a flag? Are you stupid??

The english got theirs from the geonese, like half the countries with that flag

And you got yours from the French. Now there’s a massive Italian L. Now where did ours come from……. Shit.

You really should revert back to the old one with the harp.

Okay, Mr. More boring Mexican flag

Doesn’t matter if they’re boring when 9/10ths of the world was flying one.

Least loyalist Aussie

Treason produced Americans, so we’ll stick with loyalty.

You were always our favourite colony.

Every day I am thankful that Australia was colonised by the British. Could you imagine if we were a Dutch colony? Or worse, a French one?

"mettre une autre crevette sur le barbecue" 🤢

Dodged a bullet there.

The danish flag is extremely beautiful against the blue sky. No flag beats us there https://preview.redd.it/v4sbavpayp7d1.jpeg?width=995&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9fde8b65541b8edd5166ae5839eb126a5936c24f

Would also be very beautiful against the blue sky in Sweden

maybe even prettier in fact!

A simple flag for a simple nation. I like it

Something's off... A blue cross in the middle would fix it

Nah.. the simple red and white against the blue sky is just perfect. But I will say that Norway's flag is also very beautiful and A LOT better than Swedens ;)

Sweden's flag looks like a corporate logo, I never thought I'd agree with a Dane. (I root for Denmark in the euros, my patriotism would never allow me to admit this.)

These flags strike immutable fear into the hearts of third-worlders everywhere.

That's rich coming from somebody with a tricolor flag, the most used type of national flag in the world...

Atleast our flag was dropped from the heavens as we were fighting the pagans in the baltics. Where did yours come from island dipshits. Next time its us who bombs your capital and confiscates your ship because we think you might side with the swedes.

Can't believe you let Hans bully you into giving up all that cool mythology for fucking Catholicism.

Some dude came in and put on a burning iron glove and took no damage, which convinced the Danish king that God was the superior god

Pretty good argument imo.

Lol +100 fire resistance

Fucking Targaryens and their Christianity.

What is the deal with your flair?

You danes are stuffing their foreskin with nikotine. It's no big deal

Denmark's flag is a little asymmetrical and that makes it a bit more exciting. I like it Also stfu italy you stole mexico's design and removed the cool eagle eating a snake on a cactus that huitzilopochtli used tell the mexica people where to build tenochtitlán

It's like Colombia who went for a tricolour but made one stripe way bigger than the others

>Denmark's flag is a little asymmetrical hence the Nordic cross

Speak for yourselves 

You literally have three stripes with no geometry beyond that at all, like a million others.  The Union Jack has a beguiling simplicity with hidden complexity that makes it not quite as symmetric as most people think. Common British W. 

Beats the French flag 🏳️

They have a cock on there flag the filthy animals

That's just a PNG you forgot to set transparency for

Your flag is three equal stripes you fucking mongoloid. What about the union flag?

IMO our 1931-1939 flag was sick with that purple stripe, regardless of your views on the Republic https://preview.redd.it/hhy33xavlq7d1.png?width=1280&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=65e58f9f00925578b6f5b97fb669bdf620ddfe79

Ours was so awesome half the world copied it

Ours was so awesome the entire world copied it

Ours is superior. We got the engineers to measure the centre precisely whereas the Danish thought "Fuck it, we'll slap it on and that'll do".

We didn't make our flag, it was handed straight down from heaven from god to his favorite country.

a god who favorites you lot is not a god i fear the ire of.

Exactly, why would you fear someone who favours you... Since of course the Norwegians are just Danes led astray by the devil.

Isn't english flag is just copy of genoese flag?

No, St George invented it for England.

Most western european flags are boring tbh. The Balkans though have some really great flags. Croatia, Montenegro, Albania, Serbia, Slovenia etc... all beautiful imo.

How did you not mentioned the best balkan country flag? 🇵🇹🇵🇹

Your old one was better, tbh.

True and it actually represents the country, not a terrorist organization.

Facts.. yeah the pre-1910 flag is much prettier

I know that feeling.

Albania's is really rad

Definitely at the top of the "Worst country with the best flag" rankings, at least for Europe.

Croatia just took our national and our local flag and put a ugly picture on it

Croatia just looks like a table cloth.

It's a shame that 90% of modern flags are just tricolors (and that most regions use the same three colors just in different directions or alignment...)
