You switched the flag of South Yemen with the Soviet flag. But never mind, people can picture that out for themselves. They aren´t mentally stupid.

Weird, the Rhodesia one looks just like the Nigeria flag. Decent quiz this, some I couldn't get.

You could expand this quiz. There are a ton of good flags in recent history that are no longer used. One could even do a quiz on former colonial flags of the British realm. I disagree on taking current names for countries. Stick with Rhodesia, Zaire & etc.

flixuk....what's the point of naming old countries if you just put their modern names...that's dumb.

I liked Zaire's personally. Mobuto was horrible, but at least there was that flag.

The German flag there could also be Upper Volta, so accept Upper Volta (and possibly its current name of Burkina Faso) for that one?
