8:27 I'm from the Maldives, and no joke they actually used to make us design the flag in MS Paint as kids because it was so easy I still remember that day in the first Grade 😭😂
The red and the green are similar to the mspaint red and green, so …
Palau, Nauru, Marshall Islands, Solomon Islands, Micronesia, India, Pakistan, Argentina, Ukraine, Brazil, Ireland, Saudi Arabia, Greece, Sweden, Israel, Kazakhstan, Rwanda, Tanzania, Gabon, Bahamas, Nigeria...
>white and blue
@@Breach-Clear Fair point, I completely missed the other two 😂
Bahamas
Netherlands when they used orange instead of red in the flag :)
@@GwainSagaFanChannel that was the past tho,
indonesia is independent now
If the flag of Sri Lanka counts, then so does the flag of Lithuania. By law, the "red" is described as "purpuro", which translates to "purple" or "magenta".
The law must be colorblind cause thats definitely red
Sri lankas is closer to maroon but its still res
and Qatar
@@HTV-2_Hypersonic_Glide_Vehicle Qatar flag has white, though
@@excho I thought it was just about the color red. Maybe I missed that.
@@HTV-2_Hypersonic_Glide_Vehicle Title is wrong, he meant red, white, or blue.
The problem with Luxembourgs flag is that they have to color it this way. If they made the blue more like the other blues you see in the UK, US, Russia, etc. you'd just get the Dutch flag.
Didn't stop Chad and Romania!
I personally prefer it for Luxembourg
They probably got them cheap and used from the Dutch then. Sun faded and unusable. Hey guys, I solved our flag problems, we just got em cheap once the Dutch are done with em
Alright so Wikipedia says the Sri Lankan flag is maroon but Wikipedia itself defines maroon as a "brownish crimson" colour and defines crimson as a "rich, deep red" colour, Wikipedia also lists the RGB value of maroon as (128, 0, 0) which means it consists of 100% red
But it don't look red to me 😮
@@crashingdown6924 it doesnt look red but it is red
Is it just me or is Haiti’s flag is actually good with the white background in the symbol.I think it adds some good contrast to the dark blue and red.
Haiti downloaded the wrong type of image
"i'm not a child as best I know" -Toycat 2023. Well let's see your adult certificate then
Hate to break it to you, Toycat, but in art class, we've treated maroon as just another shade of red. If you're gonna make that maroon argument, you gotta make that same argument for the Bahamas with two aquamarine bands and Kazakhstan being turquoise. As for 8:11, that's a legitimate flag. It's not just the flag of the Norwegian Sámi but the flag of Sápmi and ALL Sámi people! It was designed by Astrid Båhl. The red part of the circle symbolizes the sun, the blue part the moon. The colors red, blue, green and yellow reflect the Sámi national costume. Green symbolizes nature, blue for water, red for fire, and yellow for the sun
The thing about the Maldives flag is it used to EVEN simpler! The current flag was adopted when they got their independence from the UK, but when they first became a British protectorate in 1796 (which they did after kicking the Dutch out of Ceylon and included the Maldives as part of their influence, but there wasn't an official agreement until 1887), their flag was red...and nothing else. And before that from 1117 to 1796, they had one similar to Nepal's with just red! They did what Gaddafi did with his flag before it was cool.
DAMN
i see you on mandrproductions videos. how are you everywhere?
About the Lion in Spain's flag:
1. It technically isn't pink, or at least it shouldn't be. The law about the Spanish coat of arms (law 33/1981) states in its first article that the lion is "purple", and the actual official colour assigned to it is commonly described as magenta or reddish-purple. But there's criticism around it saying it's too pink and too saturated, therefore too different from the traditional heraldic purple.
2. The Lion is king because it represents the old Kingdom of Leon. Which alongside Castille, Aragon and Navarra (and also Granada at the bottom if you wanna be picky) form the joint Kingdom of Spain.
I don't think your fix to the flag of Haiti works: it makes the icon less recognizable since there is no c9ntrast between the colors from the icon and thos from the background
Yeah, what they can do is put the Phrygian cap in a corner and encircle it with white or gold and call it a day. Or just don't use any other symbol and let the flag have only the two stripes.
10:40 that flag is actually cool eventhough it breaks the rules of what a flag should look like
It is really high renaissance stuff with a bit of Medieval spice in it, yeah it is really cool.
The very Wikipedia page for Maroon (which you’ve clicked on as it’s purple) describes it as a shade of red.
Maroon could be neither of those colours, Maroon may just be a variation of Crimson (the colour inbetween Red and Purple), still, it's subjective
Eh, maroon is a weird colour in general. For example, in my language, maroon is called "Kastanienbraun", which means "Chestnut Brown".
@@Mattineu i thought crimson was dark red
For whatever reason, red, maroon and pink are different colours but blue, navy blue and sky blue aren't
I prefer if you apply the Luxembourgian red-white-and-blue shades to the Dutch flag. What you get is amazing.
Luxembourgish
WOAH! The Netherlands flag with the Luxembourg colours looks so cool. That would be a good flag.
My mind can't even imagine that insanity
Insert unpopular opinion meme - "I think the flag of Haiti looks better with the white box"
in a real life setting its actually not that bad imo. It makes it stand out and the coat of arms is more visible with the white background. Also the white could represent their history of being a French colony, although i havent been able to find any particular reason to the white square.
Flags have always fascinated me too.. I had a tiny encyclopedia of flags when i was a kid and it was one of my fav books.. i asked for a world map for a xmas gift once.. its cool shit
Maps are the GOAT imo.
@@sizanogreen9900 thanks ..i take full credit for them
I've also asked for a world map as a christmas present too
Oh yeah the older version of the Sri Lankan flag the lion had a whip.
And little known fact the lion in the flag represents the Sri Lankan Majority while the Orenge represents the Tamil minority and the Green represents the Muslim minority. The Christian/Burgher minority however only had a Bo leaf to represent them which downgraded them to a religion than their own ethnic group (which they were at the time.)
If you have a Sinhalese grandmother you might want to ask her about the attitudes towards the Christian / Burgher community post indipendence.
She's a 🍔
as a Burgher I approve of this comment. The Burgher community is not very common knowledge. I am a Portuguese burgher and one of like 1000 people in the world who can somewhat speak the Sri Lankan Portuguese Creole.
@@vihakingwhimsicalflame Wait seriously there are still speakers of Portuguese Creole? Here in Sri Lanka almost all the burghers left are descendents of the Dutch the burgher communities here never truly recovered from the post indipendence migrations.
@@vihakingwhimsicalflame As a Brazilian, I've always wanted to meet random Portuguese-based Creole speaking people to spend an afternoon comparing languages and talking about stuff!
Fun Fact: Haiti and Liechtenstein had the same exact flag (Blue top and Red Bottom) until the 1936 Olympics where both countries they realized they had the same exact flag, so after the Olympics Liechtenstein changed their flag because it was Haiti's civil flag, but Haiti changed it anyway
Kudos to you for showing our flag at 2:18, comrade! Much appreciated. The red on our flag does indeed symbolize bloodshed, the bloodshed of Korean patriots against the Japanese and the invincible might of our people firmly united to support the Democratic People's Republic.
If we include the flags of territories, another flag that includes pink is Turks & Caicos! Within the shield on its flag, there is pink on the queen conch shell! Regarding those Ionian Islands, Britain got them as a result of the aftermath of Napoleon's antics. France occupied them in 1807 and Britain attacked in 1809 and 1810. It has the Lion of St. Mark on the flag because the islands were historically Venetian. They were gifted because after signing the Treaty of London in 1864 with Greece, France and Russia, those who signed wanted to bolster King George I (who was an Anglophile). Plus, the people on those islands wanted to be Greek ever since Greece got their independence from the Ottomans in 1832.
Thanks Kim for the support
Long Live the Workers Party of Korea!
Not to ruin your bit but the colour red on most flags represents the blood shed for the nation.
The Spanish lion is just an early rendition for the pink panther. They wanted to try it on a national level before going global with the cartoons
I absolutely love these nerd topics
Too bad it's a complete lie XD
@@sgt.miltonosiris4490 ??
@@Nooticus look at some flags of the World some time XD
@@Nooticus Yeah, this guy know nothing about this topic. Look up Cocos Island flag or what maroon and orange are, spoilers, shades of red. Also colours are language dependent like how light blue is a shade of blue in English but in Spanish is a separate colour called celeste or how in old german the colour blue was called green.
8:11 it's not the Norwegian Sami flag, it's just the Sami flag or the flag of the Sami people
And he was saying it was a made up flag 😂
@@fightingfinn1503 sometimes he looks looks so happy with himself also 😅
I was looking for this comment. This guy's videos are trash and overflowing with false information.
"quality of the flag definitely correlates with quality of the country" *looks at France*: you're god damn right
Flag that (doesn't) break(s) all the rules:
Flag of Republic of Venice (1659-1675)
WOAH YOU'RE SRI LANKAN?!?!? Why have you never brought this up before???
"I can't draw the flag and I'm not even a child", toycat. Are you sure?
Nepal has left the chat
India too
@@Proplayer69420 how is their flag unique
@@lovecraftianwalrus4490 because it doesn't have red
Whilst I really don't buy the argument for the Sri Lanka flag being an exception to the red-white-blue trend, I will say that the list of exceptions changes depending on the language you're using to refer to these colors. There are languages that don't see pink as it's own color, and merely a shade of "light red", and on the opposite end, there are languages which consider dark blue and cyan to be distinct colors from each other.
If you go by this interpretation, you can exclude a few more flags including Bahamas, Kazakhstan, Palau, Rwanda, and maybe another one that I missed.
I'm counting Bahamas if Sri Lanka counts. That's more green than blue anyway
Yeah, if we use that insane colour logic you could also count Kazakhstan and even if you are not insane like that you still have other flags without any shade of red, white nor blue, Cocos Islands come to mind.
The good old red, white, and/or blue (it's literally nearly every country except those 2)
And so many more, but a lot of them have white because it usually represents peace/hope, red for the blood shed for the nation and blue for usually for bodies of water. All in all an awful video full of misinformation on all fronts.
He is so luxembourgophobic
The Haitian flag looks like someone designed it for them without their consent or input, something I'm sure isn't an issue for them in any other area.
I recently got into argument in internet with person trying to claim infrared is red... Seriously what is wrong with these people?
I don't try to call pink red, even when literally it is "light red" in my mother tongue.
I don't know there's a word for maroon in our language either...
I think that you can make your flag complex. Like get a kid to draw wales' flag & you can see that its wales. Likewise you could probably draw parts of the Venetian flag at least enough to recognise which flag it is since how many flags have those kind of tassels.
you should do a tier list of all the countries' flags
8:11 That is not the "norwegian sami flag" it is just the Sami flag. It also is a real flag for the Sami people, it wasn't his friend who made it
Yeah! How didn't he understand that?!
@@Someperson12532 the same way he didn't "understand" any of the other misinformation in the video, apparently all his videos are like that clickbaity trash overflowing with falsehoods.
Maroon is a shade of red on a digital color square gradient, you can see that maroon is a red
I love flags, now I want to go check on all my Vexiology youtubers I used to watch
"I'm gonna end the video here or else I'll just keep making fun of more countries" Is a very quintessentially English statement.
Maroon is a darker shade of red
I have been to luxembourg last week. It is worth keeping toycat😂
2:20 So there must be a red pixel somewhere in that Finnish flag .... hmmm and Ukrainian flag seems to be lacking from this list ...
It's not 1st of April yet either .....
Great video!
It's cousin is a pink panther.
bro maroon is a shade of brownish crimson, crimson is a shade of red, brainiac.
Make a part two about flags and maps
what a great video about maps

Its lion
@@piyumalubayasiri2642 it’s a liger
@@Khaled-oti what is the difference between liger and lion?
@@Space_and_history a liger is a mix between a lion and a tiger
3:45 fun fact: this is actual Russian flag from the early 90s
its just a lighting glitch, but it looks very similar
If you want bad flags, look at the US state flags. There are a couple of exceptions. New Mexico's flag is beautiful. But most are just very bad.
The lion in the arms of Spain is a standard heraldic lion, save for the crown. If a blazon says just "lion" without any further details, this is what you should draw.
As a proud Sri Lankan I love this
I saw the thumbnail on r/vexillology, what an astute guy.
Haiti flag would go crazy if they dropped the graphics and just had the red and blue stripes with that white square in the middle
but even though the Marshall Islands has a good flag, its sinking
Maroon is a variation of red, its like saying that navy or light blue is blue
omg guys teal and cyan are not blue ugh!!!
what a nice scubject of conversation
if you change to Luxembourgish blue to more of a British blue, you'd just have another Romania-Chad situation with the Dutch flag
I like how the Captions say "High Tea"
Is that really the British pronunciation of "Haiti"? Americans say "HAY-tea," and I'd guess that there are more Haitians in the US than in the UK.
I think it's just the toycat pronounciation
Fun Fact: colors have various different versions called shades! Some darker, some lighter, some cooler, some warmer. Isn’t that just F A C I N A T I N G!?
I completely agree that the Haiti flag is horrible, thanks for bringing it up. But the Sami flag, that you thought was made up, is actually real and you can see it flying all over Norway.
What is that flag north of Tibet?
Thumbnail got me, not gonna lie.
Would like to know what the historical flag is @11:00. Thanks
The colors on the Luxembourg flag remind me of the colors of those red, white, and blue America themed popsicles
that thumbnail is so wrong it's hilarious 😂
There is a another flag without red, white or blue: The Cocos (Keeling) Islands flag which is green, yellow and brown.
Hi Toycat! did you know paint 3d supports transparency? 13:13
I love the passion and humor! 👊🏾😀
What about all the misinformation?
Challenge for you: make all country flags in minecraft banners
Haiti's flag, with its cannons, captures the war mongering soul of the US.
You should make a video about national anthems. Why do all national anthems when played on Wikipedia sound like high school band music? Even from African and Asian countries?
That's interesting
maroon is a shade of red toycat
As a sri lankan my self i didnt know it was maroon
Maroon is a shade of red
Why does ‘blue’ cover so many hues from the ocean to the sky, whereas red excludes pink and maroon?
Fair point.
What a clickbait thumbnail. I thought you had a stroke but forgot to mention white and blue
isnt maroon a shade of red?
The best part about Haiti's flag is that is contains itself, 6 times
Maroon is a type red it counts Sri Lanka has red on it
*Sri Lankan Lion:* i do a bigg attac
*Spanish Lion:* halp picc me upp hooman
*Welsh Dragon:* What the fuck is wrong with you two?!
5:05 The official name is actually the United Mexican States and 6:16 it's called Akrotiri and Dhekelia, and it's overseas territory of the UK
1:10 I'd definitely call the "maroon" on that flag red.
1:35 maroon is red and red is red.
Maroon Is A Shade Of Red
When I hear maroon, all I can think of "that is not a red ball it is a maroon ball"
3:47 the russian flag looks sorta like the flag they used feom 1991-1993 tho the blue being a bit darker
Can I see your UA-cam analytics after you said told us to unsubscribe last video
Saying sri lanka doesnt have red in it because it is maroon is like saying france doesnt have blue in it because it is navy.
I don't know what I should read into more, why Brits pronounce Haiti as (high-tea) because of their obsession with tea or why Americans pronounce it (Hate-E) because our obsession with hating foreign countries especially the central American countries. 👀 👀
And they said New Zealand was forgotten
maroon is red, crimson is red," just different shades
I'd say that Sri Lanka's maroon is definetely more red than purple. I'd say that Qatar would count if Sri Lanka does as it's maroon colouring can be more ambiguous.
the part of cyprus is akrotiri and dhekelia
They missed Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Hindustan.
Also, I consider myself to not be a flag fan, but rather
A flaggot
Fun with flags
So maroon is not red but crimson is?
13:12 Why don't u just save the image and put it into paint if it's not working
I was waiting for the Liberian county flags
