Title: National flags Post by: WarBwastard on August 29, 2008, 01:49:31 AM Let's play a "who's national flag is this" game. Let's start with this one as I saw it hanging up in the Vic poker room this week and didn't know which country it belonged to. No googling. Whoever gets it right can post a new one. This is fun for all the family.
