Top Ten Countries that Should Change Their National Flag

The Top Ten
1 Monaco Monaco, officially the Principality of Monaco, is a sovereign city-state and microstate, located on the French Riviera in Western Europe.

I think Monaco have to change their national flag, because Indonesia is the first country that use the "Red and White" flag. Indonesia has known the "Red and White" flag since the time of Majapahit Kingdom on 13th AD and still use it until this time.

Monaco have used this flag for a long time, it isn't their fault if indons decided to copy them.

Just a smaller version of Indonesia's flag

Monaco has the same flag as indonesia

2 Chad Chad, officially the Republic of Chad, is a landlocked country in northern Central Africa. It is bordered by Libya to the north, Sudan to the east, the Central African Republic to the south, Cameroon to the south-west, Nigeria to the southwest (at Lake Chad), and Niger to the west. It has a population of 16 million, of which 1.6 million live in the capital and largest city N'djamena.

Hey! The chad flag came before the romanian flag! It's not their fault if the Romanians decided to remove their symbol on their flag to make it look like the Chad flag!

They stole our flag, the Romanian Flag! Screw you, Chad!

Dammit Chad, going off stealing flags.

3 Luxembourg Luxembourg, officially the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, is a landlocked country in western Europe. It is bordered by Belgium to the west and north, Germany to the east, and France to the south. Its capital, Luxembourg City, is one of the four official capitals of the European Union (together with Brussels, Frankfurt, and Strasbourg) and the seat of the Court of Justice of the European Union, the highest judicial authority in the EU. Its culture, people, and languages are highly intertwined with its neighbors, making it a mixture of French and German cultures. It has three official languages: French, German, and the national language of Luxembourgish.

The netherlands flag but cooler, still they could switch to their second flag to avoid confusion

It's the Netherlands flag but in a lighter blue, needs to be changed

Huh I think it looks awesomne, both this and Netherlands flag are excellent in my opinion

4 Austria Austria was Celtic (Hallstadt) then as Noricum, part of the Roman Empire, Alaric, who took over Rome, studied at a monastery near Vienna. In the Middle Ages, the Holy Roman Emperors moved to Vienna, then Austria became separate. Medieval documents from Eastern Europe as far as West Ukraine were often in German, and referred to Vienna, showing its influence well before the Austrian Empire. After the first World War, Austria became a small country, under 10 million population, but including the world's then 4th largest city. 'A big head on a small body' they said. In 1938 Hitler invaded his home country and imposed Naziism. Vienna was then the World's largest Jewish centre, many famous people, ...read more.

I think it's pretty excellent

5 New Zealand New Zealand is an island country in the southwestern Pacific Ocean. It is situated 1,500 kilometres (900 mi) east of Australia across the Tasman Sea and roughly 1,000 kilometres (600 mi) south of the Pacific island areas of New Caledonia, Fiji, and Tonga. New Zealand's capital city is Wellington, while its most populous city is Auckland.

Looks like Australian flag

6 Australia Australia, officially the Commonwealth of Australia, is a sovereign country comprising the mainland of the Australian continent, the island of Tasmania, and numerous smaller islands. With an area of 7,617,930 square kilometres (2,941,300 sq mi), Australia is the largest country by area in Oceania and the world's sixth-largest country. Australia is the oldest, flattest, and driest inhabited continent, with the least fertile soils. It is a megadiverse country, and its size gives it a wide variety of landscapes and climates, with deserts in the centre, tropical rainforests in the north-east, and mountain ranges in the south-east.

We don't live in the 18th century anymore. The Queen is hardly a influence to the country despite the fact she is the head of state who has no role on governing Australia. She is just an ordinary person who claims to be entitled to be Australia's symbolic identity which is BS

Australia/Soviet Federation's flag, aside from all the Communist Stars, still has the union jack on it. They should 100% change their flag, as the UK doesn't even care about them anymore.

Legit New Zealand and Australia look the same except for 2 stars

7 Tuvalu Tuvalu, formerly known as the Ellice Islands, is a Polynesian island nation located in the Pacific Ocean, midway between Hawaii and Australia.

It looks decent

8 Nepal Nepal, officially the Federal Democratic Republic of Nepal, is a sovereign state located in South Asia. It is home of the famous Gurkhas whose name come from a small district in Nepal called Gorkha. The name Gorkha came from the legendary Indian sage Gorakhnath who did spent later part of his life in the mountain of Gorkha. These Gorkhas later became Nepali who are known as peaceful people until when the country was open for outsiders. Nepal and Nepalese fought few wars with Muslims rulers from India and were not defeated. Later Nepalese fought wars with British India five times in a row but Nepali were not defeated whereas most of the Indian subcontinent was ruled by British.

Why? It's the most unique national flag!

9 India India, officially the Republic of India, is a country in South Asia. It is the seventh-largest country by area, the second-most populous country (with over 1.2 billion people), and the most populous democracy in the world. Its capital is New Delhi. Some other major cities are Mumbai, Chennai, and Ahemdabad. The most spoken languages are Hindi and English, but there are 22 official Indian languages.

National flag isn't your bedroom wall's poster that can be changed on your like or dislike. Maybe for other countries it is but this country's national flag was made after taking into account the history and culture of the country. People who doesn't understand the history and the reason for this flag conception won't understand the prifound meaning of national flag of this country.

It looks like the national flags of many other countries like Netherlands!

It looks similar to Niger's flag but it's still pretty good

Yeah it can be better

10 Fiji Fiji, officially the Republic of Fiji, is an island country in Melanesia in the South Pacific Ocean about 1,100 nautical miles northeast of New Zealand's North Island.
The Contenders

Why? It's pretty good

The amount of stars does not represent the amount of states and there is stupid propaganda behind the meaning

The flag represents its country well. I like it

If one star is good, fifty must be just right!

When a new state is added

13 Pakistan Pakistan was established in 1947 and is located in South Asia. Islamabad is the capital city of Pakistan. Karachi, Lahore and Peshawar are other major cities of Pakistan. Urdu and English are official languages of Pakistan. World's second highest peak (K-2) and ninth highest peak (Nanga Parbat) are located in Pakistan.

Pakistan and turkey flags are almost the same. They just defer in color. If I were they, I would change it. It looks boring and senseless. No offense, people. Just giving an opinion. It might help you a lot.

14 United Kingdom The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, commonly shortened to United Kingdom, UK or Britain is a Sovereign State located of the Northwestern coast of Europe.

As much as I like the UK flag, why is Wales absent from it? Maybe the Wales dragon should be in the middle and it would've been even better!

The diagonal red lines represents Northern Ireland
As for Wales I agree it's crazy that there's no Welsh representation

There is no Welsh representation on it.

15 North Korea The Democratic People's Republic of Korea, also known as North Korea, is a country in Eastern Asia. Its capital is Pyongyang. It is currently ruled by the Juche leader Kim Jong-Un, after inheriting the title from his father, Kim Jong-Il, who in turn inherited it from his father, Kim Il-Sung.

The country is the wrong, not the flag. The flag looks like a peanut butter jar with star on it. It means, it is the best peanut butter in the world. You should try it or you'll die. No offense...

16 Turkey Turkey, officially the Republic of Turkey, is a transcontinental country in Eurasia, mainly in Anatolia in Western Asia, with a smaller portion on the Balkan peninsula in Southeast Europe. Turkey is bordered by eight countries with Greece and Bulgaria to the northwest; Georgia to the northeast; Armenia, the Azerbaijani exclave of Nakhchivan and Iran to the east; and Iraq and Syria to the south.

The Bosphorus, the Sea of Marmara, and the Dardanelles, which together form the Turkish Straits, divide Thrace and Anatolia and separate Europe and Asia. ...read more.

What's with the star and the moon? It is very common on some flags and it is senseless. Did the moon eat the star because the star is smaller than the moon? Come on, people. It looks like a 5 years old child made that kind of flag from a red paper and paste a moon and a star with no meaning at all. No offense. By just looking at it, makes my eyes sore. Where is the effort?

This flag is excellent!

17 Indonesia Indonesia, officially the Republic of Indonesia, is a country in Southeast Asia.

I really like it for some reason

Looks like upside down Poland.

18 Germany Germany was formally united in 1871 under the initiative of Bismarck with King Wilhelm of Prussia as emperor. The previous 'Holy Roman Empire', basically a continuation of the empire of Charlemagne/Karl der Grosse was dissolved in 1806.

Some territory was lost after World War 1 and a lot more after World War 2, basically started by Hitler's Nazi dictatorship. Then the Soviets kept their zone - the 'DDR', East Germany, separate with a wall through the middle of Berlin, until 1990 when the country was reunited. ...read more.
19 Ireland Formed in 1916 after the Easter uprising, Ireland is a small country with a population of roughly 5 million.

Not the best in my opinion

The flag means peace between Catholics and Protestants
Considering that 78% of the country is Catholic and 4% are Protestant
It is a bit strange.
Maybe this flag should be the flag of Northern Ireland
I think the flag of the Republic should become the old golden harp on a blue background or a green background

20 Jordan Jordan, officially the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, is a country in Western Asia. It is situated at the crossroads of Asia, Africa and Europe, within the Levant region, on the East Bank of the Jordan River.

Amman is Jordan's capital and largest city, as well as its economic, political, and cultural centre.

Palestine deserves their own flag :P.

21 Libya Libya, officially the State of Libya, is a country in the Maghreb region of North Africa bordered by the Mediterranean Sea to the north, Egypt to the east, Sudan to the southeast, Chad and Niger to the south, and Algeria and Tunisia to the west.

22 Mexico Mexico, officially the United Mexican States, is a federal republic located in North America. The country is located between the U.S. and Central America, and is known for its Pacific and Gulf of Mexico beaches and its diverse landscape of mountains, deserts, and jungles.
