nice quiz, but I don't know why you're given 10:30 when the time limit should be 4:00 or so

I echo the comment above - just ugly flags for the most part. Too busy, bad design or just clashing colors/symbols in many cases. Canada's current flag is a prime example of a simple striking design being superior to a more complicated one. Of course, we may just be so used to the current flags that any deviation/alternate design looks strange.

Some of the other proposed flags of these nations are much better. For example, Canada had a three-headed maple leaf flag proposed in the 60s with blue banners on either side instead of red. A bit jarring, and worse than the flag we ended up getting, but way better than this 1939 mess haha.

Surprised that Malaysia is the least guessed. It looks very similar to their actual flag.

Love the quiz, but that Australia proposal was made in 1992, not 1900:

the New Zealand flag would be one of the best in the world if they changed to this proposed one.

the Bolivian one also has a great idea, but with bad execution. the Whipala is such a great symbol.
