Oh wow! The flag of Germany was so cool that it inspired half of Europe through out 1939-1944!

Edit 1: You can mention other errors in this comment, I might've left out some. Since I've got so much time, I will point out all the errors: Lithuania wasn't added It's "North Macedonia", not "Northern Macedonia" PRE WW2 1919~1927: Poland's flag has a different shade of red. 1927~1939: The Second Polish Republic changed the shade of red used. 1929: Vatican got their independence in 1929, but the flag was already there since the beginning of the video. 1931~1939: Second Spanish Republic 1939: Bohemia and Moravia was a partially annexed territory of Nazi Germany and had its own flag. 1939: Slovakia was given its state, under a puppet regime of Germany, thus having its own flag. WW2 1940~1941: The British occupied Iceland to prevent it from falling to the Germans. 1940: Vichy France had its own flag, despite under a puppet regime. 1941: Croatia had its own flag as well despite being split into 2 occupation zones. The Independent State of Croatia (which wasn't actually independent) consists of lands of the modern territories of Croatia and B&H. 1941~1943: Montenegro was actually occupied by Italians, later occupied by the Germans when Italy surrendered. 1941~1943: Same goes for Greece, which is mostly occupied by the Italians. 1941: Moldova was actually under Romanian control. [Operation Barbarossa] 1941: Iceland is occupied by the Americans. 1942: Monaco was occupied by the Italians. 1943: Italy surrenders, a new puppet regime is formed. Italy is known as the Italian Social Republic. 1943: Greece, Montenegro, Monaco and Albania are now under Nazi occupation because Italy surrendered. Albania has its own flag though. 1944: By the end of the year, the Soviet troops only entered and liberated the modern day parts of Serbia, Montenegro and FYROM. 1944: Albania was liberated, however I couldn't find a source of the hammer and sickle being on the flag. Wikipedia states that Albania is known as the Democratic Government of Albania. 1944: Most of the Italian Peninsula is under allied occupation, thus changing to the flag of the National Liberation Committee. 1945: Luxembourg isn't liberated until early 1945. 1945: Poland was liberated by the Soviets, they used the flag from before (1927~1939). 1945: Germany is occupied by the British, Soviets, French and the Americans. The flag of allied-occupied Germany should be shown here. COLD WAR 1945~1969: Slovakia should use the Czechoslovak flag. The flag shown was used only after 1969. 1949: The modern German flag is used. [East Germany doesn't have its own representation] 1956~1957: The flag was reverted back to 1946~1956 version. 1975~2021: The French changed its flag to a lighter shade. 1980: The modern Polish flag is used. 1990: Lithuania gained independence before the other soviet republics. 1991: Georgia used a flag similar to 1918~1921 until 2004. 1991: Russia's flag has a lighter shade of blue until 1993. POST-SOVIET ERA 1992: Serbia's flag shown was not used until 2004. 1994: Montenegro's flag shown was not used until 2004 too. 2004: The Serbian flag shown was a standardised version, not used until 2010. 2021: France changed its flag back to the darker version.

Yes. Definetly "ALL" countries. I loved the Lithuanian flags

In 1992, Bosnia got another flag -a white cloth and a shield in the middle of it, with 6 golden lilies and an oblique white stripe diagonally.And the star-triangular flag appeared in BiH in 1998

Funny how, just in 1940, most flags are from only 2 countries

The flag of Spain definitely did not start with that design until 1945. Since 1923 it underwent up to 3 changes until reaching the flag of the Franco dictatorship.

The one in Spain is poorly done. Spain in the 1920s had a round shield without the eagle. In the 1930s it had a shield divided into 4 with a mural crown and a purple stripe on the flag. And from the 40s to the 70s the two-color flag arrived with the eagle on the shield.

1:25 They keep changing to a funny shape

Poland may have been under German occupation, but it never had a Nazi flag, like later under Soviet occupation it did not have the (hammer and sickle) like other countries, the film suggests that during the war Poland was part of the Axis powers while it was on the side of the Allies

Denmark's flag didn't change. It was occupied, not annexed. It's not the same thing.

Turkey: 🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿

Didn't Georgia have a different flag in the 90s?

Turkey: Hey Switzerland! Want some 🍿? Switzerland: yeah bro... İ like that show

2:10 europe worst nightmare

Nice video, but didn't france change the shade of blue of its flag in 2021?

I find any mistakes 1: Spain Don't use the 1939 flag in 1923 - 1940 stage, Spain used his 1785 - 1931 flag, in 1931 changes his flag to a Red/Yellow/Purple flag 2: Italy in 1945 Don't used his today flag, Italy used the Kingdom of italy flag, he chaneg his flag to today flag in 1946 3: Germany was Occuped in that time , he don't used his today flag, he used other flag , he changed to that flag in 1949 4: Romania not changed flag in 1964, he changed in 1965, 1 year later 5: Bulgaria had the same case liken Romania , not changed flag in 1968, he changed in 1967, 1 year earlier 6: Greece continue using his Greek Junta flag, he changed to actual flag in 1978 7: Serbia used in 1992 a Blue/White/Red flag,not his today flag. The today Serbia flag was used in 2008, not 1992

You focused so much on the tiny nuances in the Andorran flag but failed so miserably at major changes in the Spanish one...

There was another flag of Georgia after the Soviet times and also you missed one flag of Macedonia that started the dispute with Greece because they put a Greek symbol on it. - the star of Vergina.

Did any one else realise he missed the new French flag with a different shade of blue?

There was made a mistake in Georgian flag. In 1990-2003 Georgia had a tri-colour flag, the flag of Democratic Republic of Georgia (1918-1921). 5-cross flag 🇬🇪 was only adopted in 2003, after the Rose Revolution.

Montenegro gained independence in 2006 Georgia had this 🇬🇪 in 2004

Georgia creo que tuvo una bandera diferente entre el final de la URSS y la actual, una de color rojo con dos franjas negras y blanca horizontales en la esquina superior izquierda

Lithuania left the chat Edit: and if you did add Abkhazia, why are you didnt add South Ossetia

Super video❤, thanks!

Unless I'm mistaken Spain had a civil war from 1936-1939 in which they changed flag

Czechia occupied by nazis from 1939 had own flag (look at Protectorat Bohemia and Moravia). Same Slovakia during 1939-1944/1945 has own flag and did not use svastika.

Based on preview, I thought that the author was afraid, but after watching the video, I understood. The author has balls! Keep it up!

It was Italy that invaded Albania, not Germany.

Switzerland hasn't changed his flag over the last 100 years, that's impressive

The current Georgian flag appeared after Saakashvili came to power in 2003-04, and not in the early 90s.

Where is Lithunia?

The post WWII French flag changes are missing, one where the darker blue was replaced by the lighter EU blue and then the one where it was changed back very recently...

If Albania did not instantly have the italian flag stamped on top during the WW2 phase, why did german collaborator states like Slovakia or Croatia have it? Additionally, Moldova was under romanian administration during that period, not nazi.

Switzerland: First time? Sweden: yes, you? Switzerland: Not the first time

Whoa! Lithuania had so many changes!

Awesome video! 🎉😮❤

Meanwhile Iceland:🍷🗿

Nice video

I've never seen anything more chaotic than this video in my life...

2:21 Now i realised how big was *NAZI GERMANY*

It's not "Czech", it's Czechia. Also, North Macedonia instead of "Northern Macedonia".

Thanks for including Portugal.

A nations flag did not change because of occupation that is not how that works a nation has to officially choose to change it

Actually Slovakia had her own flag.

I don't like how all flags are the same aspect ratio. I get it's for visual style. But the stretched Vatican City is cursed. The Belgian flag is meant to be almost square. The Swiss flag is valid, but the square flag is the more common one. But what I do like is the consistency of the modern countries. So if countries were merged in the past, they have the same flag in this chart. It doesn't mean they were independent at that time. But it's "Czechia", not just "Czech", just like it's "Germany" and not just "German".

Thanks for telling witch flags changed

6:49 heartbeats be like:

Abkhazia was and is a region of Georgia, not an independet country.

As a Georgian i am not happy to see Abkhazia 😡 Btw from 1991-2004 georgia had another flag

1939-1944, Slovakia was actually free until 1944 when Germany annexed all their allies excluding Japan, and also, Yugoslavia didn't fall until the Early 2000s, and also, France made a small change to their flag in 2020 making the Blue part darker.

Nice video, but shouldn't Bulgaria have a coat of arms or something on their flag during the 40's? Or am I confusing it with WWI? Or just Hungary?

Some of the flags between 1939 and 1945 are wrong. For example, Slovakia had identical flag to today's Russia. Croatia was, at this time, The Independent Croatian State, and they had different from III Reich flag. Also France, the northern part was under german occupation, and southern was a dependent Vichy State.

1:12 Based

From 1949 till 1989 Germany should have had two different flags. One for the federal republic of germany and one for the democratic republic of germany. They had different ones

The flag of Ukraine and Russia was different Flag of Ukraine: light blue-yellow. Russian flag: white and azure scarlet.

5:03 Κυπριακή Δημοκρατία! ❤

Swisterland is chilling

Great work!

The Germany transformation was literally a jumpscare bruh

This is outrageous!!! Poles NEVER became part of the nazi regime! They fought till the end!

As a Lithuanian, why? Out of all countries, Lithuania?

Awesome video!

Good work!

Kazakhstan changed its flag in 1992 not 1991

France flag was never a nazi flag , it was a French flag with an axe at the center

Lithuania deadass said “____”

Switzerland: no change since 1848. Seems like a pretty stable country

This is quality, excellent job!!

Really nice video but where are Kosovo and Lithuania? Why was Abkhazia there?

I hope you do some for Asia.

1943 Europe like: "a lot of windmills going up!"

GIVE US MORE VIDEOS LIKE THIS!!!!

Evolution of ALL Asian Flags Over Last 100 Years (1923-2024)

Can you please do the same thing, butt with the others continents!

Mistake: Vatican City’s flag should be Italy’s flag in 1923-1929. Vatican City didn’t gain independence yet, until 1929, Vatican City is a new city and has gained independence.

Bruh, why's almost no one talking about how in 1941(and 1942) that half of the screen was covered in Nazi flags?

Fun fact about ussr: Kazakhstan was all of ussr for 4 days

6:56 Georgia wrong It will turn at 2004 I saw at Asia

Slovakia: I CAN EXPLAIN Russia: NO YOU CANT

Germany in 1943 🗿 Germany in 1944 💀

Finland🍷🗿

Croatia had his own flag during WW2 including Bosnia

This video has an Error! The flag of Georgia was at 6:57 was NOT the first post-Soviet Georgian flag! It was this one first: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flag_of_Georgia_(country)#/media/File%3AFlag_of_Georgia_(1990-2004).svg and it was used 1990 to 2004 where it was replaced by the modern Georgian Flag. See here: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flag_of_Georgia_(country)#/media/File%3AFlag_of_Georgia.svg. I would also like to note the first post-Soviet flag was first originally created as the national flag of Democratic Republic of Georgia from 1918 to 1921 BTW. Source: Wikipedia.

I love it European from Bulgaria 🇧🇬

Интересно как европейские страны в 1939-1945 не путались во флагах, если они были одинаковые 🤔 ❓

2:10 The more flags is N@zi And Switzerland flag

Turkey, Switzerland,Portugal, Vatican city and Iceland : Enjoyin......

*vichy france left the chat*

1. Abkhazia is not a country. 2. Russia has changed flag in 2007. 3. Georgia has a first democratic flag.

WW2 France had 2 different flags (xountry splite) And few years ago the blu changed

portugal never change the flag since 1911

It's funny that in the 1940s, most flags belonged to only two countries.

Turkish flag has never changed

1923-1939 Czech Republic: WHY ARE YOU COPYING MY FLAG SLOVAKIA!? 1923-1939 Slovakia: Oops 😅

Every country: getting infected Meanwhile Andorra: 🗿

0:42 Oh naw this is the worst year almost everything is turning into n@z1

My reactions when watching this: 1923 - 1940: I'm crying...😭 1941 - 1950: NO NO NO NO NO 🤬 1951 - 1970: Yes yes yes yes yes...WHAT? 😄/🤨 1971 - 1990: I'm getting happier... 😃 1991 - 2000: Keep growing 💪 2001 - 2024: YAY! I'm not crying anymore 😍 I felt that. You felt that. We felt that. The world felt that.
