The Top 15 World Flags
Wikipedia

Think of how many countries are in the world. Multiply that number by 1, and you'll get the number of country flags. Large number, right? How could you pick the best. Well, I'm going to try. After careful consideration, looking through every flag in the more than 50 in the world, I think I've reached a decision. Lets begin our journey.

15. Beautiful Belize

The color combination of blue, white, and red, sets this country flag apart from most. But perhaps its most defining feature is the two baseball players on the front. The left is using an ax, presumably for larger contact surface area. This microcosmic storyline is just one of the many wonders found in the Belize flag.



14. Interesting Italy

Some may say that Italy's flag and Ireland's flag look far too similar. This is ok.



13. Great Georgia

The 5 plus symbols on the flag is more than any other flag. White and red colors are unique among every world flag. What more could you want? Get out there and enjoy the world.



12. Quintessential Qatar

Qatar has the pointiest flag in the world. Additionally, it has the most Olympics-construction-related deaths in recent history.



11. Majestic Macedonia

Macedonia, named after Mao Zedong, has a flag that resembles Maoist propaganda images from the early 1900s. Sometimes, you just have to stop and smell the flowers.



10. Unnervingly-good United States of America

You'd be hard pressed to find another flag that utilizes these three colors, let alone so effectively!!



9. Neat Nepal

Nepals flag is really an eye catcher. The blue stripes, adjacent to the red fill, inserted with white stars, are unique. The shape is, I suppose, maybe different. But red white and blue is a very interesting color exploration.



8. Lovely Lebanon

Everybody loves trees!!!!



7. Crazy Canada

Everybody loves leaves!!!



6. Sweet Saint Vincent and the Grenadines

I do not really know what this country is. St Vincent is a critically acclaimed musical and visual artist. Perhaps she owns this country.



5. Perfect Poland

Red and white look great together--the only thing that ~might~ be missing is a touch of blue. But these two bold colors are an inventive way to say "Hi, I'm Poland!".



4. Innovative Indonesia

Some may say that Indonesia's flag and Poland's flag look far too similar. This is ok.



3. Stunning Seychelles

Abandoning any precedent from any other country flag, Seychelles' flag incorporates a varying color spectrum, with eye-popping angles. The color adjacencies are respectful, and the artist utilized proper proportioning. Seychelles is a very, very new country, and its flag echoes its modern beginnings.



2. Cool Cote D'Ivoire

Some may say that Core D'Ivoire's flag and Ireland's flag look far too similar. This is ok.


1. Unbridled United States, pt 2

This US flag has an extra star, putting it far ahead of any competition. Good job!!



Of course, nobody has the perfect solution to the Classic Top Flag Conundrum. I just hope I helped a little. Remember, a little bit of heart goes a long way.

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
