Dinant City. Belgium.

How did Poland get through over so many of the other great acts? Not to even single them out but actually, calling that shit out. Denmark didn’t get in with their tiktok song so why did we allow Poland the same????  At least the 90s gay beat from Belgium got in amongst many other greats. I’ll tag you Poland. This is an unserious post, no one cares actually. It’s just fake Eurovision beef to keep things spicy.

from /r/vexillology Top comment: The municipal flag of Affligem is (official description, from the municipal website): Twee even lange banen van rood en van wit met op midden een lelie met twee uitkomende gesteelde rozen van het een in het ander, begeleid links van een gesteelde en gebladerde roos en een abtsstaf, rechts van een omgewende sleutel en een gesteelde en gebladerde roos, alles van het een op het ander (Two red-white vertical stripes of equal width, in the middle a fleur-de-lis with two counterchanged roses emerging on each side, on left a leaved rose and an abbot's cross, on right a key and a leaved rose, all counterchanged). According to Gemeentewapens in België - Vlaanderen en Brussel, the flag was adopted by the Municipal Council on 31 October 1989, confirmed by the Executive of Flanders on 9 Octobre 1990 and published in the Belgian official gazette on 25 September 1990. Red and white are the traditional colours of the abbey of Affligem. The municipal arms of Affligem shows the elements described above in white on a red shield (official description, from the municipal website): In keel een lelie met twee uitkomende gesteelde rozen, begeleid rechts van een gesteelde en gebladerde roos en een abtsstaf, links van een omgewende sleutel en een gesteelde en gebladerde roos, alles van zilver.

And instead of the star in the corner, like the Congolese flag, I replaced it with a lion, the national animal of Belgium. So basically, it’s like if the Congo colonized Belgium instead of vice versa. Hope you guys like it.

from /r/vexillology Top comment: So basically it's just the flag of my childhood town in Belgium. It's not the best design but I like how it keep it simple and kinda unique, I'm not sure many flag use that pattern. Just thought you might enjoy. Edit : from what I could understand, the flag is a simplified version of the coat of arms of the town. It symbolizes the bridge that cross the river and unite the north and the south of the communes.
