Okay, let’s see how geeky you are, vexillologically speaking.  Answers next week.



#20  The only non-4-sided flag





#19  The only flag with a different back and front





#18  The only flag with a green background





#17  This flag is basically another state’s flag with a seal added to it





#16  This flag features the Confederate battle flag





#15  This flag features the Confederate national flag





#14  Lots of flags have the sun on them.  This is the only one with a moon on it.





#12  Lots of flags feature stars on them.  This is the only one that features a real constellation.
