[SunWuKong]

(hint: it's an Asian country. :lol: )

[nonamerasian]

(Can't there be two answers, though. Isn't the Switz flag a square?)

[golden_buns]

Here's another question;

Bangladesh.

Golden buns, Korea and Japan's flags are nothing like each other other than that they have a white background, and have a circle in the center.

However, the superior Korean flag has more significance and meaning because of the alternating stripes and the Taeguk, it is also a challenge in itself to draw the Korean flag from memory, and most Koreans actually can't remember what it looks like exactly. Try it! Japan's simple sun flag is weak and boring and not complicated at all.

Blah blah blah Korea is superior blah blah blah Japan stole it all from Korea blah blah blah. :lol:

This reminds me of Cambridge, when all my English friends would say "Who d'you think invented America, you ungrateful cunt!"

[BeTheReds]

No no, I'm just joking with you Yuhei.

Now, I didn't say anything about Korea inventing the Japanese flag or that Japan stole something from Korea.

Besides, the Hinomaru hasn't even been recognized as the national flag of Japan until 1999. Lots of Japanese people hate that flag and want it and the national anthem changed.

bangledesh, with an off center disc, so when the flag is hoisted, it looks centered.
