Worst Flags of the World

For some reason the list of the Worst Flags of the World includes a lot of somewhat new Oceanic countries. I am not sure if that means I hate change or new ideas but I think their flags are gaudy, weird messes. I understand that they have a lack of outside historical sense. Most of these countries have never had the need to have themselves represented to the outside world. However, that means there is no excuse for bad flags. There are plenty of symbols that would put them in Top list like---whales, sharks, cannibalism, white/black sand beaches, palm trees, tropical fish. Use them, please! Also, I could not upload the Ukrainian flag properly but trust me there is really no need to see it. It's boring! I present the Worst Flags of the World.




SEYCHELLES
---Busy nonsense. Presumably a sunrise or sunset exploding over the horizon but this may be the new flag of the LBGTG.







ST. LUCIA
---Star date Jan. 15th 2008. On this voyage to St. Lucia we find that it has been taken over by a large group of trekkies and one day they hope to use this island as a launching point to start the new federation of planets. And this is their flag!













UKRAINE
---Not much to say about this flag. This two-tone flag is a boring, bad color piece of nothingness. Sorry Ukrainians but Blah!


VATICAN CITY
---I expected greater things out of the Papacy. After all it is one of the oldest, most influential little nothing nation to ever exist in history. The up/down two-tone just doesn't work. The yellow is ugly but the crest almost takes it out of the Ten Worst catagory. Could've done better Popes!







ZAMBIA
---Unfortunately it looks like a late-era Nazi Afrika Korps battle flag. I don't think that there is any lingering German influence in Zambia but it is sad that they took for inspiration such a checkered historical nightmare. That said, I don't care how it makes me look...the Nazi had some excellent imperialistic and heavy-handed cultural motifs for its flags.





BARBADOS
---This is apparently home to the sea god Neptune's new kingdom and this trident proves it. Great place to score mermaids, though.







CHILE
---Wow! The South American equivilent of Texas. This can only mean they think they are an autonomous entity within a larger political system hellbent on thinking that they are the best, the biggest, and the fattest people in the land (and everyone else is either fucked or stupid). I hate Texas and now I have to hate Chile.






KIRIBATI
---Obvious ocean theme, bad colors, wavy lines. Not the worst but does it inspire anything? Does it mean anything? Will that bird ever land?






MARSHALL ISLANDS
---I almost didn't include this in the Worst list because I think it may signify what could possibly be the worst thing to happen to this group of islands. Once a testing ground for A and H bombs, the island pays homage to the atomic future by crafting a flag depicting a nuclear blast or a apocalyptic, creepy, futuristic version of a bomb-happy world.






NEPAL
---The worst flag ever! No rectangular shape and bad coloring. Sorry Buddhists, I know this flag is very important to you but I much prefer the colorful prayer flags to this sawed-off ode to bad flagmaking...could be a lack of textiles but I have seen their extravagant clothing. No excuse...hands down WORST FLAG IN THE UNIVERSE
