Sychelles:

Bhutan would have had the best flag if someone colored it in.
Seconding Seychelles, such a cool flag.
Vietnam:
Angola:
Nepal for originality:
I thought the Angola flag looked bad ass so I looked the country up on Wikipedia. This struck me as a bit odd.
“Angola achieved independence in 1975 as a one-party Republic, but the country descended into a devastating civil war the same year, between the ruling People’s Movement for the Liberation of Angola (MPLA), backed by the Soviet Union and Cuba; the insurgent National Union for the Total Independence of Angola, an originally Maoist and later anti-communist group supported by the United States and South Africa”
The flag of Switzerland is always a plus.
The flag of the Chinook Nation is one I recall seeing and thinking it was very unique, memorable, and aesthetically pleasing.
I also like the trident on the flag of Barbados.
Edit: fixed link
Someone else mentioned Seychelles, so I’ll also throw in the rather awesome, Jamaica:

Albania 🇦🇱

Antigua and Barbuda 🇦🇬

Kiribati 🇰🇮

South Africa 🇿🇦

Portugal 🇵🇹

Wales 🏴
I agree these are good, the others were not though. I’d like to add to consideration:
-
Argentina 🇦🇷
-
Canada 🇨🇦
-
Japan 🇯🇵
In particular, Argentina is, if not the best national flag, at least my personal favorite.
. Argentina, bog standard three stripes and something in the middle design no different from El Salvador’s, Guatemala and Honduras’s.
. Canada, same as the Argentinian flag but worse because of its use of a leaf. By far the cringiest flag.
. Japan, it’s just mid.
I agree that Argentina could be improved. Maybe make it five stripes instead of three? Just add a bar of white at the top and also the bottom. The red symbol in the middle is great, but maybe we need more than one, let’s make it four in a horizontal row. Since there are more now they’ve got a be a little smaller and therefore also simpler, something recognizable but cool like a brewer’s star.
Oops, just made the Chicago flag again. Unbeatable.
Iirc this was designed by a committee somewhat recently, yes? Now it’s on bags and walls and flying proudly. Good job, Chicago.
April 4! But, uh, of AD 1917, so not that recently.
The Canadian flag is not a “bog standard three stripes” design. It even introduced a new vexillological term; the Canadian pale.
I don’t understand why you think the maple leaf, a symbol which has been associated with Canada ever since there was a “Canada” to speak of, is “cringe”.
The Canadian flag is a vexillological masterpiece and I will die on this hill. I wouldn’t bother dying for my country, but I would for its flag. It’s instantly recognizable, simple yet symbolic, and honestly such a massive glow-up from the previous Red Ensign flag.
You want to see a cringe flag? Look at this atrocity:

Cringe flag for a cringe country
Say what you will about the country, I have my fair share of criticism regarding Canada and would agree that we are, on the whole, cringe. But our flag? It’s a good flag. I don’t care what you think.
The flag of Canada is perfect.

Japan, just a red dot
U mean design and style? If so then I like north macedonia
Must be the Dutch one since half the world copied it in some way 🇺🇸 🇮🇩 🇷🇺 🇫🇷
The colors are great there, it works surprisingly well.
I like Canada 🇨🇦, Wales 🏴 and Bhutan 🇧🇹

I’ve always liked Libya’s old one. Real green flag.
