South Korea: It's like the flag of Japan, but with more symbolism, notably the trigrams, which represent the four elements. And the taijitu is more interesting than a simple circle (you can also spot one on Mongolia's flag).pic.twitter.com/xUIB0rtssz
Seychelles: How can you not love this one? The rays symbolize "a dynamic new country moving into the future." Way better than their flag under colonial rule.pic.twitter.com/NXu4FCfbwC
Brunei: This is my personal favorite. I love the angled stripes, the bright yellow, and the especially the hands, which symbolize benevolence, and the inscriptions read "Always render service with God's guidance" and "Brunei, the Abode of Peace."pic.twitter.com/j1yGoHsW6s
Okay, time for my least favorite flags. Apologies in advance if you live in one of these countries! First up, Bosnia and Herzegovina. The colors are fine, but it just looks like the design got cut off, like they misaligned it in the copier machine or something.pic.twitter.com/ZQSIGHfocg
Maldives: Really hate the nested boxes. It looks like badly-framed abstract art. And come on, at least do something interesting with the crescent, like Brunei or Iran!pic.twitter.com/xBD8Lqq9bz
Haiti: This seriously looks like it was made in Microsoft Paint. The coat of arms is so tiny it's illegible, and the red/blue stripes hurt my eyes.pic.twitter.com/LTknBy7LwE
Turkmenistan: Turkmenistan is renowed for its carpets, which is why they put one on their flag. That's fine and all, but it makes this flag way too complex. What do Turkmeni kids do when they have to draw their flag in crayon?pic.twitter.com/YB2fcEfttL
Malaysia: Looks straight out of an alternate-history novel, like The Man in the High Castle but if America was conquered by Muslims instead of Nazis.pic.twitter.com/PhgFQfIJ0o
