Please vote for the best flags; you may choose up to six flags. The top six will be moving on to the next round. This is NOT a vote for which country is "better". We are strictly voting based on the aesthetics and the design of each flag, not taking into account any geopolitical issues. Below each flag you'll find a link to the Wikipedia article about that flag, if you're curious to find out more about its history and symbolism.

Again just four: Botswana, São Tomé and Príncipe, Egypt, and Malta. Botswana has an interesting design and catching colors.

As I noted in another thread, Chad's flag is almost identical to Romania (slightly different shades), as well as Moldova and Andorra. There are a few of these "sets" in the world, such as: Poland, Indonesia, Monaco, and Singapore.
