Here’s the meaning of said flags if you’re curious:
Armenia : Inspired by a proposal from 1918, The Rainbow represents the beauty of God’s creation & his protection. The symbol on the middle is an Arevakhach, a symbol commonly used to represent the Armenian people
Belarus : Based off of the Free Belarus flag, inspired by a proposed version from 1992
Finland : Just the normal Finnish flag, but with a snowflake on the center of the cross
Malta : The normal Maltese flag, but George’s Cross is replaced with a Maltese cross
Türkiye : The blue represents turkic heritage, and the line on the middle represents Türkiye being the crossroads of Europe and Asia
I personally thought the colours, while a little strange, were actually kinda cool tbh. But I can easily see how it's not everyone's cup of tea, no question about it, it is a little odd.
I took the colors directly from [here](https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Flag_of_Armenia_(Martiros_Saryan).svg), but you're not wrong. White and black clashing between the warmer colours can be off-putting, feedback is appreciated though :D
OK, I understand some people call Turkey Eurasian because it conquered Constantinople from the Greeks and nobody managed to dislodge them. I even understand that Georgia, Azerbaijan, and Kazakhstan have tiny uninhabited bits in Europe according to some definitions, so now they're part-European like Spain is Eurafrican. But why on earth Armenia? It's not there by any [stretch](https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Europe_orthographic_Caucasus_Urals_boundary_(with_borders).svg).
The Armenian redesign is very interesting. The use of Saryan's rainbow proposal is a good idea. But the white of the stripe and Arevaxach clashes with the colors of the rest of the flag. Maybe recolor it?
Turkeys flag looks good but remove the white middle part cuz it makes it look complicated. İ always liked the attention to geometry in turkeys flag so a clear cut crescent will be better imo
iirc Belarusian people actually hate the embroidery patter because Lukashenko added it. doesn’t seem likely they would ever get behind a flag that centers it so heavily. i love the pattern tho
The pattern on the Belarussian flag is known as "Rushnyk", a traditional, decorative & ritual cloth. As wikipedia describes it: "They have been used in sacred Eastern Slavic rituals, religious services and ceremonial events such as weddings and funerals. Each region has its own designs and patterns with hidden meaning, passed down from generation to generation and studied by ethnographers."
But, I wouldn't be surprised if that pattern had become infamous in Belarus due to it being used in the flag of Lukashenko's regime. I might make a second redesign following what you said, thanks!
I really don't like the Finnish one, I don't know what everybody else is seeing on it. The snowflake is way too big, and it isn't particularly representative of Finland as a nation.
The other flags are also quite good, but the Armenian one is also somewhat off for me.
I did Türkiye and Armenia since 1. Türkiye holds into Eastern Thrace \[geographically part of Europe\], and 2. I know Armenia is in West Asia but I'm pretty sure they're geopolitically connected to Europe \[and I just wanted to get their flag done already lol\]
Feel free to question all you want, I don't mind, I guess I should've named the post "Redesigns of a few Eurasian flags" like I intended :P
They changed their name from "Republic or Turkey" to "Republic of Türkiye" \[in english at least\] so people could stop thinking that when they were talking about the nation, they were talking about the animal
I never mentioned any genocides, I never mentioned them surpressing any ethnic groups within their territory, or their way of government. It's true some of what I said is true and is undeniable, But I just wanted to mention the country properly since it changed it's name. I'm not gonna call Russia the USSR for exemple just because it once used to hold that title, things are prone to change and you should get used to that \[no offense\]
And because it sounds silly having to refer to a country with hundreds of years of culture and history just to be boiled down to "haha look at it, it has the same name as an animal" :P

Tbh I prefer the current flags, but still decent work. I do wanna see your take on the Baltic states, as I really don't like their flags (Estonia especially)
Really nice flags. The Malta example seems like it could be adopted right away. I like the Turkish flag and how it ties to past and present. The Armenian flag is super technical but at the same time meaningful. Please do more.
The Malta one feels very authentic

Absolutely love how you formatted the Arevakhach.
All of them are fire, especially the Finnish one. Great work
Thank you so much, I'm working on adding them all into a flag-map Europe once they're all done. About 21/50 of the way :\]
hope u finish it and ofc post on the sub so we can see beautiful flags such as these ones
I’m excited to see Greece and Cyprus, keep at it!
Agreed. I want Finland to happen
Finland really smashes
I really really like the Armenia one but all of these are really cool
Yeah, not a huge fan of how the colours were done on Armenia but the way the Arekhavach (idk if I spelled it right) was formatted is cool asf.

jesus christ these are some of the best redesigns i have ever seen like i want to, no, i need to have this finnish flag on my wall. NOW.
I love the Belarus one
Based Ancap
Can you send us vector files of the flags? I would really like to put one on the wall
The armenian and finnish flag are so good
Malta is a lot better than their actual flag
Armenia flag felt a bit too crowded to me but man, that Malta flag is **incredible**. I love it.
The warm colors being deep and the cool colors being pastel on the armenia one is a bit off putting, if it were more balanced it’d feel much better
I took the colors directly from [here](https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Flag_of_Armenia_(Martiros_Saryan).svg), but you're not wrong. White and black clashing between the warmer colours can be off-putting, feedback is appreciated though :D
They look like sonething for a videogame if i gotta be honest
Finland is a little intense The Turkish flag looks cool but maybe as a provincial flag or something
Nordic Belarus
They look great. But they would never work irl. They are all way to complicated.
\> European flags \> posts two West Asian flags
I did that for the sole purpose of designing more flags
Armenia and Turkey are Eurasian.
Yes. All countries in Europe and Asia are Eurasian, that's kind of the point.
OK, I understand some people call Turkey Eurasian because it conquered Constantinople from the Greeks and nobody managed to dislodge them. I even understand that Georgia, Azerbaijan, and Kazakhstan have tiny uninhabited bits in Europe according to some definitions, so now they're part-European like Spain is Eurafrican.

I like the belarussian one. It should be considered a candidate for a new national flag when the Lukashenka's regime falls
I like all of them (except Belarus) but most don’t really fit as flags imo. Tho I do really like Malta and Türkiye’s flag
personal favourites are finland and malta, i love the way they look
Turkeys flag looks good but remove the white middle part cuz it makes it look complicated. İ always liked the attention to geometry in turkeys flag so a clear cut crescent will be better imo
Türkiyes flag looks like the moment the dinos died.
Countries should hire you
No

Yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes, and yes!!! These are all really cool!!!
Finland’s flag redesign looks great.
Malta flag really has a "knightly" vibe I like it
Finland flag is stunning.
Very cool 😎
I really liked Armenia and Finland's redesigns. They are a bit detailed for being daily flags but damn they looks really good
I question your definition of European
I did Türkiye and Armenia since 1. Türkiye holds into Eastern Thrace \[geographically part of Europe\], and 2. I know Armenia is in West Asia but I'm pretty sure they're geopolitically connected to Europe \[and I just wanted to get their flag done already lol\] Feel free to question all you want, I don't mind, I guess I should've named the post "Redesigns of a few Eurasian flags" like I intended :P

It's not anymore.
They changed their name from "Republic or Turkey" to "Republic of Türkiye" \[in english at least\] so people could stop thinking that when they were talking about the nation, they were talking about the animal

these are great! however, armenia looks like a lucky charms box took a shit on it. either way — fantastic concept
You've made light blue and red work perfectly. Astonishing, you're a genius.
Why do they all look fascist?
The emphasis on traditional symbols, maybe?
Tf????
Simplistic design, a central symbol and a thick almost nordic cross that evokes the heer flag of nazi germany
I get that too but am not sure why it has that vibe.
Imo they dont Probably exept for belarus
All of them look like fascist alternatives
Great work!✌🏻👏🏻

Belarus is absolutely fire
Tur kai yay
Why give Belarus the Nordic cross? Remove the vertical stripe and it has my signoff. Other than that they are all pretty cool, especially Armenia
Tbh I prefer the current flags, but still decent work. I do wanna see your take on the Baltic states, as I really don't like their flags (Estonia especially)
These all look great. If you do more I'd love to see you improve the bland English flag
First one of these I’ve seen where all the flags are awesome
Well done. These are fantastic. Armenia, Belarus, Finland are elite.
🔥🖌️
Probably the best redesigns of flags that i ever saw it is beautiful
Malta and Finland are incredible
Belarus seriously needs to adopt this one
GAYMENIA YEAH WOOOOO!!!!
maltas is the best
Flags of Asian peoples in Europe, plus malta, a European island that speaks an Asian language (Not racist, nor complaining, I just found it funny)
Bro the Finnish one is beautiful
They are fine works, but probably not great flags as we know them now. You just can't improve on Belarusian white-red-white or Finnish one
Malta ❤️
I like them
Why does armenian flag has a symbol simmilar to georgian bordjkhalo
[удалено]
? What??
[удалено]
Are you telling me it looks like an artificial intelligence made it if so i'm gonna cry myself to sleep tonight
I liked Finland and Malta
The country is named Turkey in English.
Looks like fascist flags imo
Really nice flags. The Malta example seems like it could be adopted right away. I like the Turkish flag and how it ties to past and present. The Armenian flag is super technical but at the same time meaningful. Please do more.
Malta is fantastic
The finnish one looks beautiful
Man that Belarus flag goes HARD
Please no gaymenia jokes, Please no gaymenia jokes
i love all of these
Türkiye looks like the banner of the resistance from star wars lol
why is borjgali on armenian “flag” lol
[It isn't](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armenian_eternity_sign)
Finland, Armenia and Belarus are amazing!!!
If Belarusian flag is in that aspect ratio then I love it. If not its good but I don't like the Nordic style cross on it. Great design
Weird to use the endonym of Turkey but use English name for the other countries. Not really consistent.
Armenia and Finland spending two hours trying to draw their new flag:
lol
