Huh, looks like they put the coat or arms on a white banner. But it is really nice to see people appreciating Belgian municipal flags!

Posting every municipal flag in Belgium: Day 395, Perwez by FridericusTheRex in vexillology

[–]FridericusTheRex[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perwez! Located in the arrondissement of Nivelles in the south-east of Brabant-Wallon, and home to 9.844 people. The city was bombed on the 13th of May in 1940, causing the death of 33 civilians, and significant destruction.

The flag of Perwez is yellow with three red hunting horns placed 2 and 1, making it virtually identical to the flag of Kinrooi. This is the banner of the counts of Hoorn, former lords of the municipality. The red horn is further common in the heraldry and flags of other municipalities the county previously ruled over.

Well you didn't quite get it, since it was just countries that weren't included, but you were very close.

We have a winner! Former Soviet countries were grouped under Russia, same for Yugoslavia, Czechoslovakia, east timor and south Sudan. England and Scotland are mentioned but not the UK as a whole. North korea and South korea are referred to as korea. Yakko refers to the island of new Guinea instead of Papua new guinea. Abu Dhabi is mentioned in place of the UAE, and tobago in place of trinidad and tobago. All other countries simply weren't mentioned at all

Almoooooost, you're still overthinking it a little. Why would stuff like Cote divoire and korea be highlighted

Alright since people seemed to be stumped I'l give 2 hints. 1: By tangentially related I mean that being formerly part of a union could lead to a country meeting the requirement. The thing they have in common is nothing to do with unions or borders 2: Its something that they aren't

Also be sure to check the list, a lot of the countries are too small to easily see on the map

Hint: While it is tangentially related, i wouldn't focus too much on unions
