Stars and Stripes above the Union Jack? Seriously?

The EU flag should also have been included somewhere in this list:

I love African flags because they tend to be very colourful and creative. European flags are generally rather bland (either three stripes or a cross). Anyway, here are some of my favourites in random order I only picked ones that weren't mentioned yet.

South Africa


European Union


Estonia


Malawi


Tibet


Ghana


Antigua


Venezuela


Friesland (not a national flag but too cute not to mention)


Kiribati

I meant 'national' flags not 'economic organization' flags.

Not the Nordic crosses or the tricolours. Lazy - should have tried harder. 1/10 for effort.

The best flag in the world is the one of Yorkshire:

If they are among the most beautiful and stylish designs, they should be mentioned.

I didn't mention the Irish tricolor, as I don't like the orange color, or the Danish flag, as the cross is too narrow.

I could mention the flag of Turku as well:
