The ancient Spanish flag was so unique and peculiar 👌🏻

You left out Canada, in 1965 they adapted the Maple Leaf flag used today but from 1892-1965 the flag had a red background with the Union Jack in the upper left corner and the coat of arms on the right side. I kept watching this video expecting to see it but never did. Good video otherwise!

Fun fact, ancient Egyptians _invented_ flags, flagpoles, banners and standards.

You left out Canada which changed its flag from the "Red Ensign" to the Maple Leaf in 1963.
The Red Ensign was red with a British Union Jack in the top left corner, and the Canadian Coat of Arms in the bottom right.
The flag was changed to show Canada's independence from Britain. In 1956, Canada' foreign minister, Lester Pearson, put together an international peace keeping force to end the Suez crisis. Egypt would not let Canada participate, because our flag signified that Canadians are subject to Britain. When Pearson became Prime Minister, he changed the flag.

Changing Kyrgyzstan’s flag 🇰🇬 was one of the worst decisions ever 💀

The description of the Chinese flag in the video is wrong.
The five-color flag of the Republic of China was adopted on January 10, 1912, and was replaced by the red flag with blue sky and white sun on the ground on December 29, 1928. After 1949, it was replaced by the five-star red flag.

Formally, the US flag has changed many times varying the number of stars and, in the first few decades, the number of stripes. Small changes but if you include changes in the color shades in some flags the US changes are at least as great as those. It’s been over sixty years since the last change which is the longest such stretch in US history.

germany's old flag is literally yemen but upsidedown

Why the white ''fleur de lys'' used in France before the Revolution has been forgotten?

[hfdennycheng]

THE CHINESE 5 COLORS REPUBLIC FLAG WAS USED FROM 1912 TO 1927. FROM 1927 TO 1949, THE CHINESE FLAG WAS THE NOWADAYS TAIWAN'S FLAG（IT IS CALLED "BLUE SKY WHITE SUN RED GROUD FLAG"）. THE CHINESE FLAG IS THE 5 STARS RED FLAG AFTER 1949

Why only Georgia from former USSR? What about other former republics which gained independence? The video isn't complete.

As some previously marked in German and French, the Swiss flag has always been square, not rectangular.
This is also visible in front of the UN building in New York even if flags are supposed to be equal in size and format to underscore the equality of single states in the body of the UN.

Some nations have underwent more than two flag changes in their history too...

[Sanjee-ownq]

Sri lanka changed its flag in 1972. It replaced 4 "Bo" leaves on 4 corners, for 4 throne legs.

[قمرالظلام-مط]

The red flag with a yellow crescent moon and yellow star was not one of the ancient flags of Saudis at all.

[nicholassilverio]

The UK flag, the Union Jack, is the most beautiful of them all, and the most noble and historic. 🇵🇭✝️🇬🇧

[mgk]

In the mid 20th century, the USA went from a star pattern with 48 stars to 49 and then a year later the current 50 to mark that addition of new states to its union

[cuzzybrozain]

Bangladesh has changed flag too. I don't know when but I know what it looked like before. They added the land in red circle until it wasn't there.
