Interesting!

But Albania? With that monster? Okay...  LOL!

I do recall that one criteria mentioned at the time our flag was being decided 
upon was "drawability". Something simple and easy for schoolkids to draw was 
desirable. Makes sense to me.

Of course these lists can be silly but are fun, and if nothing else spark 
debate and discussion.  

Thanks for sharing!

Cheers,

frank
