Fun Fact: the Spanish Flag actually is a "Union Jack" because the coat of arms that is in the flag is a combination of the Kingdoms of Castille, Aragon/Catalonia/Valencia, Navarra and Leon
And the Kingdom of Granada represented by the pomegranate at the bottom of the shield.
But its a very ugly flag still
Don't forget Plus ultra from Charles V
@@alexandrecudre2947 "plus ultra" (further beyond" used to say "non plus ultra", and refered to the Strait of Gibraltar, that was believed to be the end of the world.
When they discovered that there was something "further beyond", Charles changed the motto

Fun fact: The circle flags are called roundels
okat
Wow
Circle flags arent roundels... circle flags are flags and roundels are more of an insignia like a shield
@@kh2b573 well I mean no actual flags are circular so those are technically roundels.
Thank you for the knowledge sir
Points at the jedi order flag
« I don’t know what flag that is »
Me: It’s treason then
At least he recognizes the rebel flag
@@LuunieTuunie from my knowledge ,I might be wrong, the Jedi flag is the same as the rebel flag
@@benkerem5517 no it's not it similar but not the same
@@benkerem5517 no but similar. The rebels took inspiration from the Jedi.
@@TrippaMazing87 In legends its the Marek family symbol. They chose this to honor Galen Marek who was Vader's secret apprentice and also helped form the rebel alliance.
Drew:
"Some of these countries needs to update their flag"
Denmark:
*Starts sweating as the flag hasn't been changed since 1219*
Lol
Technically, it has. There was another flag during the Kalmar Union.
Their Flag haven't Been updated since 1500 (523 years)
Why change something that is perfect.
9:13 That's the symbol of the Nordic Council, which is a cooperation organization for nordic parliaments and governments. The biggest problem with using that symbol, is that most Nordic people associate it with another symbol called the Nordic Swan mark, which is based on it, but is used to label environmental friendly products such as recycled paper.
Thank you i was looking for someone to explain though i already knew-
"Terrible color choices....why yellow and green?"

Australia, being green and gold:
13:17 That character 食 in Japanese flag literally means "to eat"
What was this guy thinking when he/she made it???
Maybe sushi should be their new flag
They probably made it just before lunch.
I saw it before and ikr?!
In Chinese it means food. Still doesn’t make sense
Eating is important.
"Why yellow and green?"
*sad brazillian noises*
😔
It is the only flag Ive ever seen that makes a good combiantion of yellow and green
@@thegoldenpyro yeah, it’s amazing
What about Australia? They use those colours as their colours but not in their flag just saying.
@@cobravideoss Australia?
Fin fact: the Mexican Huichol flag is actually inspired by psychedelics.
The Huichol culture uses the peyote cactus as a religious practice. This cactus is a powerful psychedelic, making you trip and see crazy patterns and colors, and is commonly depicted in their art… The green side of the flag shows the peyote cactus as a pattern.
4:48 “I don’t even know what this is.”
Me, a hard-core Star Wars fan: *JEDI ORDER*
wait is that jedi order or republic flag?
My guy looked through the comments to find someone pointing this out
@@fatty2194Jedi order
Normal flags: some colors, maybe symbols, shapes...

Did you just declare war against Brazil?
Não
And Jamaica Too
4:46 was the jedi order flag
Yes
Yes
Thaught it was the Brotherhood of steel at first, got da when i realized its the Jedi order
Hello there

Multi-coloured binding on passports is an anti-counterfeit measure. The Finnish passport also has blue and white binding so other countries should have them too.
9:11 The symbol that is showing is the flag/design for the Nordic Council. It was developed by, you guess it, the Nordic countries
13:52 all i could think of was just hungary, romania, and greece combinded with the kiribati symbols.
15:00
If I recall correctly, paraguay has two different designs on both sides of their flag as well.
Just checked, and yeah. One side has their coat of arms, and the other bears a lion and their national motto.
@@YourLocalArabian Oregon does
I don't think he realizes that the Japanese-style flags aren't in the style of the Japanese Country Flag, but of its Prefectures. So it doesn't matter if it's pre-1999 or post-1999, it's using the current style for the Japanese Prefectures.
He's only joking

8:17: The Circle is supposed to represent the rising sun I think, because Japan translates to Land of the rising sun.
9:59 Italian passports have that too (but red instead of orange, obviously)
Drew: Pokes fun at Mexico over their constantly changing flag
Also Drew: Doesn't mention all the obsolete American flags
Just remove few stars
To be fair, the only changes to the National flag is just adding stars for every new state admitted.
Afghanistan: amateurs
2:41 YES! New York and New Jersey need flags like this! And interestingly the only one here that hasn't changed is NM. NM is consistently said to be one of the best US state flags.
UK Flag : Exist
Wales : Where Am I in the Flag?
When the Union Jack was formed, Wales was considered just a part of England and not its own separate entity, hence why it is not represented
@John Conquest It would look terrible with yellow, just change the blue to black in that scenario
Putting a dragon on it would ruin the symmetry
@@gaz9434 Or how about in bad situation if Northern Ireland gets annexed by Ireland that time the Union Jack will be like the old one, to prevent the looks of the old union jack, we can use the cross as the cross of Wales like you said, then the Union Jack will still stay like the current one
@@prathamprabhu9403 how is that a bad situation?
Fun fact:
A "union jack" of Spain and its provinces already kinda exists, and it's that little thing in the left part of the flag (in Spanish it's called a shield (Escudo), and many places have one, even if they don't have a propper flag, it being an important identity symbol (and also some families had one in like the middle ages, and prob. still retain it to this day)).
The Chinese flag in 13:13 means "Serving the people" 为人民服务 - A slogan of the CCP since they took power in 1949 which they never practice.
The Japan one says 食 which means "food"
Drew: So we have Spain who controlled Mexico for a 'little bit'
Spanish Mexico: 1521 - 1821. 300 Years
Present day mexico: 1821 - 2020. 199 years

The Hungarians also did the same thing around 5:25 during the Hungarian revolt of 1956

3:33 Badger gets called a beaver. Angry Wisconsin noises.
Thank you excactly what I was thinking
As a wisconsinite, I am very angry
Mexico: “Spain controlled them for a little bit” 😂
Longer than the US has been a country.
"In 1989 the supporters of of German reunification in East Germany simply cut out the the middle of their flag."
Hungarians: 'Scuse me?
Romanians: excuse me?
Nah they just adopted west Germany
The Romanians did that but did the Hungarians do that?
6:31 "You have Spain, because Spain controlled them for a little bit"
*300 years*
Spain controlled them as long as they are independent

I know nothing about this besides the fact that my brother did it in elementary school that my brother did it in elementary school but it’s this thing called a young padwagon I think and it’s basically like this company that helps kids play instruments, for my brother was the recorder and he did the recorder karate thing
I Love Learning about country and you make it fun 🤩 so I watch your videos daily about 4-10 videos a day keep it up 👍🏿!
"Terrible choice of colors. Why yellow and green?"
Brazilians hearing this: 😥😥😥
The DDR flag is so godly. If only they kept Auferstanden aus Ruinen as the anthem of a unified Germany. A much better way to represent the new Germany. A Germany risen from the ashes and moving in a new direction
Hi president I salute you
Just kidding
That is so true! I just listen to it, to get sure it isn't socialistic at all. It is not. It actually fits perfectly to the German zeitgeist!
@@joze838 it's socalist cause it is about progress and welfare of the people,about the beauty of Deutschland which ddr had,today's Germany is just America 2.0
@@zurdddtk3025 There is nothing about welfare in that song and if progress is socialism than socialism looked quite weird in Mainz 1450AD. Please educate yourself what socialism means, you have obviously no idea. Man, did you ever been to those countries you are comparing? They are worlds appart.
@@joze838 the song is literally about rissing from the ashes into a great cooperative society without hate or extremist nationalism, about not repeating the past mistakes and moving on into a bright future,if it isn't progress then wtf it is? Not to forget this song was composed and written by a Socalists like hanns eisler,this song was banned in west especially in west Germany cause the bourgeois government of west didn't like Socalist and progressive bright German future songs
14:50 Drew: "FLAGS HAVE BACKSIDES?!"
Me: *sad Oregonian noises*
9:15 just Reform Scandinavia but with Finland and Iceand
What if every flag was like the United Kingdom?
Use 3 out of 4 flags
The thing on the Oklahoma flag is a Osage Nation buffalo-skin shield with eagle feathers
Cool SPARE SLOT
We also have two peace symbols, an olive branch and a calumet. And the crosses on the shield represent native american symbols for stars. (I had to research this.)

4:56 "Star Wars Day"
May the Fourth.... be with you.
'Mexico changed its flag every couple of years for a while'
The United States: 👀
I’m confused.
Portugal switching there flags like every decade 😐
Fun Fact: The Gif-format was introduced in 1987 (and wasn’t the first format allowing for transperancy), thus of course the East Germans had image transparency. (They also had their own TLD: ".dd"
15:31 golden wie unser Bier, rot wie das blut das wir vergossen haben und schwarz wie unsere vergangenheit
"Does (the Union Flag) look evil to anybody?"
Well yeah, a lot of people, but not because it was modified here.
“Why yellow and green?”
Me: Cries in Meath
cries in Brazilian
Laughs in German
Cries in CNW
As a person from Meath I agree
@DaGe PaPo jesus might be the spanish spelling
Huichol are the indigenous people of mexico who continue to revere peyote, as it is associated with their blue deer god. Their art is legit.
The "but it's realistic" would be easy to do for Australia and New Zealand. Just a picture of the night sky with the UK space station "Empire" in orbit

7:44 I’ve been doing this but on a smaller scale and only with national flags. I have to say, I feel outshined.
At least can u put greece? Lol
9:27 yep but Louisiana, when we are here, was a half of usa ;)
@4:35 officially you don't fly flags at night unless you are a vessel and then you really ought to fly the naval insignia
4:47 That's the jedi order flag lmao.
Execute order 66
oh and there is a flag of the rebel alliance on the right corner
7:40, the Union Jack always looks evil when seen form the Irish perspective
5:24 same thing happened in Hungary after the Hungarian uprising in 1958
and to Romania in 1989

13:00 belarus had a austrian flag but with inverted colors
2:10 look like an optical illusion

No no drew. You’re triggering English people.
Durnil: "Chechia"

As a German I think they could bring back pre 1933 flag icons. I mean I relly like the eagle from the HRE wich was later used in the time before the unification of germany
The same thing also happened in Hungary in 1956 (but with the Hungarian flag of course)
6:03 As a Tennesseean myself, I feel entirely ecstatic that we’ve been mentioned
I feel ya
6:39 fun fact: you say that “...some of you need to be updating your stuff...” Scotland’s flag is actually 500 years old! There is also the story that it was actually around for more than that by a lot. 60AD is roughly the time, that Saint Andrew was crucified. You can learn more just by typing up “how old is the Scottish flag” on google.
That Louisiana flag is kinda pog, ngl.
I mean, a fleur de leis that's also a pelican? clever AF
Imagine if the USA did the same flag design thing as the UK. That’d be chaos.
Now I kinda wanna see that
4:48 is from Star wars as Well, its the Jedi sign i think
They gave Norway a fireman's axe. Dude. There's literally an axe on the national seal, use that one.
13:02 when you forget you have an assignment due
Drew said my state flag was one of his favorites, I'm so happy rn
Lol UK flag DOSENT include Wales like wtf were more UK than northern Ireland
ikr poor wles people
Imagine the us flag up style, it would be so messy with all the states

6:31 Drew: "So we have Spain because Spain controlled them for a little bit"
New spain: 300 years of history
All other flags: 199 years of history
Never change Drew. Not that I think you could.
Mexico's age changed, though.

Drew: "Thats A Good Looking Flag i know I'm triggering the brits"
Scots (ME): Hahahaha you got that right that is a Good Looking flag!
Actually the flag of Spain does have the flag of Castile, Leon and Aragon. They are on the shield of the flag. In addition, the first flag of Spain was a mixture of the flags of Castile, León, Aragón and the two Sicilies (the one that is in Europa Universalis IV).
Imagine demonetizing a channel not just for historical flag depictions in an educational manner and setting, but for depictions of current official state flags
1:00 but... Spain's flag is already a mix/combination of the Kingdom of Castile, Kingdom of Leon, Kingdom of Aragon, and the Kingdom of Navarre.
THANK YOU
1:21 The colors on the flag of National Trash Services could vary depending on the color of the truck. For instance, the trucks in my hometown are red and black.

3:15 as an Ohioan, I would like to combine the style they show, and our current flag
hey drew how you doing?
Wholesome yet simple comment. Liked.
Simple but gold
The spanish flag represents the kingdoms of Castile, Leon,Aragon,Navarre and Granada as part of the coat of arms.
8:14 isn't that just the 2019 rugby world cup logo
4:14: The mistakes are:
2. stars pointing outwards of the ring
3. stars pointing downwards
4. stars rotated by 15°.
Correct would be:
1. stars at the 12 o'clock, 1 o'clock etc. positions and pointing upwards.
7:40 If it looks evil it is telling the truth
