Yeah, the moment I pressed 'submit', the penny dropped and I realised what the binding agent was.

Yup. Them are opposing colour. It can result to greatness in a flag such a Italy's, but it can also result to horror, such as the Wlesh or (horror) the Bulgarian flag.

We didn't have much of a choice anyway. All the other great powers were content to have a small bufferstate. I think it was meant as a temporary solution too, but that turned out differentlywhat Im saying is that, having rebelled against the Netherlands, they COULD have attempted to join France, rather than found a new state. I presume this indicates EITHER A. They werent all that francophile in 1814 B. They had become less francophile between 1814 and 1830 or C. They WERE serious about the Catholic thing, and were repelled by the relative anticlericalism of the new Orleanist regime in France."An archaeologist is the best husband a women can have; the older she gets, the more interested he is in her." - Agatha Christie

Black or white are a fine pick for a flag. They combine with any colour. I'd even say either of them must be present in a flag.Originally posted by Traianvs

I know that's your opinion, but I simply think white in a flag sucks
Hell name me 1 beautiful flag with white in it except Japan.

That's not an opinion. Black and white are non-spectral colours. They're neutral. That's why they always combine.DISCLAIMER: the author of the above written texts does not warrant or assume any legal liability or responsibility for any offence and insult; disrespect, arrogance and related forms of demeaning behaviour; discrimination based on race, gender, age, income class, body mass, living area, political voting-record, football fan-ship and musical preference; insensitivity towards material, emotional or spiritual distress; and attempted emotional or financial black-mailing, skirt-chasing or death-threats perceived by the reader of the said written texts.Comment

If you guys knew anything about heraldry, you'd see that the metal colours silver (white) and gold (yellow) are
1) Never to be placed in adjacent fields to eachother
2) Always required to separate fields of any other colour
So while Belgium's flag, small as it is, passes the heraldic conventions, Germany's does not.Comment

It even took me a few seconds to get it, so I really doubt many others will.

It's a bridge that temporarily crosses a busy intersection in the centre of Antwerp. "temporarily" since it will be replaced by a tunnel underneath the intersection. It's just that this state of temporariness has been lasting for 3 decades already, despite many (aborted) plans to tear it down. It's really ugly which is why it has been such a major pain in the ass.DISCLAIMER: the author of the above written texts does not warrant or assume any legal liability or responsibility for any offence and insult; disrespect, arrogance and related forms of demeaning behaviour; discrimination based on race, gender, age, income class, body mass, living area, political voting-record, football fan-ship and musical preference; insensitivity towards material, emotional or spiritual distress; and attempted emotional or financial black-mailing, skirt-chasing or death-threats perceived by the reader of the said written texts.Comment
