For South Africa, the current flag still has some features of the Dutch flag aswell as of the British flag.

Hello from 🇫🇷 I always learned that the blue and red was for the colors of the capital, Paris and the white for the monarchy. We have to read "the capital of Paris surround the monarchy".

An interesting video could be to look at patterns that exist in some areas: - dominance of red, yellow and green in Africa - lot of blue-yellow-red in South America - lot of black, white and red (+ green at times) in Middle East - lots of crosses in North Europe - etc

I like how Egypts flag was all yellow and Libya flag was all green (And French all white at some point) Have there been any other with just 1 plain color? Edit: Forgot to add the Afghanistan flag of course HAHA

Each color in south africa flag has a meaning Black:for black(Indian,colored people) White:the white people Green:the vast land Blue:the sky Red:the blood from youths day (june 16th ) Yellow:the gold

Interesting video - looking forward to more of these. For the section on Egypt, it is worth noting that there were some quite distinctive transitional flags historically. During the Ottoman and British colonial periods, for example, and immediate post WW2 dynasty (before the adoption of the pan Arabic colours). This included the use of Turkish influenced red flags, as well as green and white in some subsequent ones.
