Ten Best Flag Designs
Yard Flags has a collection of 10 best flags design from around the world and it missed Nepali flag. I wanted to comment on it but one has to log-in to comment so I am writing this post with a trackback to disagree with his list. I believe the Number One design is Nepali flag.
Here is the “Top 10″ list from this page.
10 ) Plenty of world flags contain dragons, but none quite as cool as the small Himalayan nation of Bhutan.
9 ) The flag of Toronto has a pleasing 1970-s style minimalism to it. Looks as if the Canadian flag has fallen down a gap in the giant T.

8 ) The only U.S. flag on the list, this is the famous Gadsden flag. America’s first Marines carried this into battle against the British in 1775.
7 ) Ah, the Holy Roman Empire. It might look as if they’ve placed a mirror down the middle of a normal German flag to produce a Rorschach inkblot test but instead this formed the basis for most German flags for centuries afterwards.
6 ) Kyrgyzstan’s Golden Volleyball flag. Are they any good at the sport? Hard to tell but they’ve blazoned a 24-carat volleyball on their national flag.
5 ) The North Caucasian Emirate only lasted for three years (1918-1921) but its the only flag in the world with a child’s smiley face drawn from Islamic symbols. Very Cheery!
4 ) The Canadian province of Nunavut has a simple, friendly design. Is it a sword? A pile of rocks? An altar? Its hard to tell, but its a cool flag.
3 ) Everyone remembers Sicily’s number one export from “The Godfather” but I bet you can’t find a single person who knows that this is Sicily’s flag or (even more difficult) what it means. A head with three rotating legs? Still, its funny
2 ) The flag of Argentina is probably the most cheery flag in the world. It has a relaxing color scheme and a smiling sun. Makes me feel better already!
1 ) The best flag in the world comes from the Russian province of Yaroslavl Oblast. Its a bear with an axe. What more do you want?

The flag of Nunavut has an Inukshuk on it, symbolic of the native Inuit and is a guidepost to rich hunting grounds. The colours Blue and gold Symbolizes the riches of the land, while the red of the inukshuk is a refrence to canada.
The star is the north star. -

I agree with you. Flag of Nepal is one of the most unique flags in the world with its unique shape, colors and symbols on it. I am not saying that because I am from Nepal, but this is exceptionally pretty.So, It should be in top 10 lists

Yard Flags has absolutely NO CLUE as to what is a good flag or a bad flag. A flag is a piece of cloth that is meant to be flown in the wind…proudly. A flag is DEFINITELY NOT (and this is what most Americans believe) a good-looking graphic design. I also believe that the flag of Nepal is one of the best flags in the world. It looks good, the symbol’s aren’t too complicated, it is unique, and everything on the flag has symbolism. In my opinion, this would probably be on my top ten list.
