Zimbabwe is the only country whose flag features a chicken on it, so it gets my vote.  It' s a pity that the tiny flag here at Apolyton doesn't do it justice.

The chicken should have been fried/grilled - THEN the flag would hit  .

Re: Which country has the coolest flag???
The flag of the Union of the Soviet Socialist Republics rocks!
How can Canada have so many votes? They have a leave on a red flag....that is so ugly...Even the US flag is better.
The UK flag rocks. It's just so beautiful and eloquent as it flies through the wind.  But it doesnt bea thte Soviet Flag.

If I had to pick the worst flags, I would go with Germany and Belgium. For a red/black combo is persistently associated with a funeral in my mind.

Well, i happen to find it a very nice combination  and i'm not being patriottic because hell I'm not! honestly! The flag... you always notice a belgian or german flag in between the other flags, and that's handy

I personally think that the south korean one is cool-- the yin yang is neat. However, I've always felt that, for some reason, Iraq's flag was one of my faves.

Oerdin, whites are as welcome in Zim as they have ever been. The forgiving and reconciliatory nature of the Zim government is a testament to Africa's genorosity and kindness. Ian Smith, the former white minority ruler has lived in comfort in Zim since independence in 1980. No whites have been run out of the coutry. The government is simply proceeding with a long overdue land reform program whereby stolen land is being returned to its rightful owners.
Thank You.

definitely korea. one of them, at least.
quite symbolic, really, what with the selection of the four elements and the two opposites on a field of white, representing a lot of philosophy in a little package..
