It kind of looks like an Othello game. This flag is for the region of the oceans under protective rights for South Korea. This is an international flag.
It is also a birthright flag, as any person born in this area has a right to fly this flag.
International spaces are often weird, especially Exclusive Economic Zones. In this case by established maritime law, North Korea too gets an exclusive claim on the oceans that border her shoreline 200 nautical miles out to sea.
It is in this area that fishing and mining rights are under the exclusive domain of North Korea.
As this is an international flag, any person born in the North Korean EEZ has a birthright to fly this flag. Also note just being born here does no guarantee North Korean citizenship.
This is a special flag for international waters, where North Korea retains certain rights. North Korea like all nations to border the ocean has certain reserved rights 12 nautical miles beyond their sovereign waters. This area of Earth is a bit tricky since it is in fact an international space, yet North Korea retains policing and security rights.
Luckily North Korea has a distinct flag that can easily be modified with contiguous colours.
Also note this flag is for any person, North Korean or not, who was born in these international waters which are reserved for North Korean Security Forces.

The flag for the Maritime Exclusive Economic Zone of Panama conserves the pattern, yet the colours are altered to EEZ colours: black, white, and green. Although EEZs are international waters, nations that have oceanfront property have an extended area of sea and land underwater that is the envy of landlocked nations.
This flag is important since Panama is a powerhouse is registered ships. Amazingly this relatively small nation is behemoth with respect to its registered commercial activity.
Additionally this flag is a birthright flag for persons born within the Exclusive Economic Zone of Panama, which is 200 nautical miles directly out to sea.
The flag for international waters reserved for Australian security and police forces uses the colours black, orange, and white. It conserves the essential essence of Australia but the 'contiguous colours' indicate that this is in an international space where Australian security forces have authority.
Additionally this is a birthright flag for persons born in this area, be it they are Australian nationals from birth or later converted to Aussie-hood.
The Exclusive Economic Zone flag for Australia maintains the classic version of the Australian flag but modified with EEZ colours: green, black, and white.

Additionally Chilean Nationals born in the area have a birthright to fly this flag.
International waters have certain degrees of separation. In this case a certain part of the high seas is under the security jurisdiction of Chile. This area overlaps the Exclusive Economic Zone as well, but it give Chile extra coast guard and police duties.
Additionally Chilean nations who happen to be born in the twilight partially-international and partially-Chilean border zone have a birthright to fly this flag.
The colours orange and black relate to the orange and black colours of the standard international contiguous zone flag.
Another flag legally speaking for International Waters, yet these International Waters have rights reserved for Japan only. In this case, Japan's security forces and coast guard are allowed to function with near immunity.
Additionally Japanese nationals born in this special space of International Waters can use this flag as their birthright.
The Japanese Exclusive Economic Zone maritime flag uses the EEZ colours of green, white, and black but the old naval flag pattern is used since Palau and Bangladesh also uses discs on a field. Subsequently the connection to Japan is irrefutable.

The French Exclusive Economic Zone flag uses the set heraldic pattern of the international Exclusive Economic Zone flag. But only the colours white and green are used. The pattern of the national flag of France is conserved and repeated.
Switching the colours of the French flag with green or black would naturally confuse persons as to which flag it belongs to. France's colours and pattern are distinct when combined but her pattern is rather common place as many nations follow that vertical tri-bar pattern. But in this arrangement it can be more easily discerned that this flag is in some way connected to France.
Likewise French nationals born in the France's Exclusive Economic Zone can use this flag.
Exclusive Economic Zone flags typically conserve the pattern of the host nation, but if a nation should have a distinct flag then the application of EEZ colours is appropriate. Here we have he United Kingdom Exclusive Economic Zone flag.
The pattern denotes that this area is related to the United Kingdom. Although an free international passage is legal, matters of economic capacity are reserved for ships and boats flagged with a UK flag.
Likewise any British subject born in this area can use this flag as their sub-national born at sea flag.
The Canadian Exclusive Economic Zone, Maritime Area Flag uses the Exclusive Economic Zone colours: black, green and white. This flag is an indicator flag that although a ship is in international waters, the economic rights for the sea are totally under Canadian cotrol.
Since the Canadian flag has distinct recognizable pattern, thanks to the maple leaf the pattern is kept intact while the colours have shifted.
Finally this flag is for persons born in Exclusive Canadian Economic Zone. Persons who have Canadian parents can fly this flag and are Canadian citizens. However those without Canadian ancestry have a reservation to become Canadian citizens after a certain economic requirement is met.
The Price is Right is a trans-generational, trans-demographic show that any American of any colour, creed, or capacity can enjoy. Everyone shops! Gen X, Baby Boomers, Gen Y, Millennials, and the Greatest Generation have at one time or another put their 2 cents in and on this show that gave us a double dose of commercial fun. The timeless theme and sparkly colours have given this show a long life, that has prospered.
One of the most popular flags that has flown in the face of the public since 1972 are the unique golf flags found on the Price is Right. This game is called Hole in One... or Two, and special flags mark the putting point. Basically the person playing this game has to put in increasing price several house hold items. The more accurate the order, the closer to the hole a person gets to putt. Likewise the player gets two chances to putt.
The vexilloids in this game are made of either plastic or metal. The price of the product is hidden under a sheath, and revealed after the prices are placed. In the photo here the person correctly put the products in order and was able to putt at the line closest to the hole. She received a $500 dollar bonus, as indicated the golden bonus $500 flag.
Vexillology made a cameo in the film Frailty 2001, starring Matthew McConaughey and Bill Paxton. During a flashback scene the starred "WORD OF THE DAY" is "Vexillology." You can see it in the upper right hand corner. Although the movie has almost nothing to due with the study of flags, several flags do indeed make an appearance in this biblical thriller of sorts.
In the boys' bedroom a Houston Oilers football pennant hangs above one bed. The Oilers are an NFL team no more. When the Oilers moved to Tennessee they underwent a name and mascot change, to become the Tennessee Titans. You can also see a homemade pennant that the boys made on the post board.
Both lead movie stars are from Texas and exude that "Put-ter there" doing things my way, in that confident Texan Lawman strut. Bill Paxton was born 1955 in Ft. Worth, Texas while McConaughey was born 1969 in Ulvade, Texas.
Unfortunate unexpected occurrences hit the fan all the time. Long ago people took it as sign that you deserved it, were under a curse, or somebody sent you some bad energy. But accidents happen at a set statistical formula, and a whole industry of Emergency Relief Entities have come into existence to deal with these 'random' events.
Nationwide Mutual Insurance Company headquartered in Columbus, Ohio is one of the these many organized groups who deal with these trying situations. Of vexillological note, they usually open their commercials by waving their corporate flag. It has a sky blue background, with a large white capital letter "N." On top of the "N" is an eagle - a bald eagle completely coloured white. It is a vexillologically sound flag, that is easily identifiable.
In this commercial Nationwide playfully puts children into poor customer service situations. You can read into the commercial that Nationwide promotes customer compassion, satisfaction, and service first. In the picture here the US national flag can be seen in the background. Another flag to the left is indistinguishable.
The story of the 54th Massachusetts African-American infantry unit was portrayed in 1989 with the epic film Glory. This 'colored' military unit saw extensive service during the US Civil War. Here their unit flag can be seen with yellow stars along with state flag of Massachusetts.
Matthew Broderick honors young Robert Gould Shaw. Glory effectively illustrated Colonel Shaw's youth, abolitionist political views, and valiantly illustrated his bravery during his final command at Fort Wagner.
It was in Glory, that Morgan Freeman became a household name. Freeman rose to stardom late in life. Consequently his star has burned steady, smooth, true and bright. Freeman's real world character and rich experience of life's knowing shined through as Sergeant Major Rawlins.
Here the several US flag can be seen flying as the troops of the 54th march in parade formation after successful training.
Lovely things are always being made. On the cover of April Chorba's book Mini Pom Pom Pets, make your own friends published by Klutz, an adorable little baby chick can be seen holding a flag. It is a pink pennant with a yellow star.
A unique flag appears on the Steven Colbert Show, the Muffins National Flag. In a parody sketch in the CBSVault of Television, "lost episodes" of the Twilight Zone a man awakens to new world order where their formerly deceased dog is now the leader of the world.
A picture of the dog with flag can be seen in a photo. The colour is impossible to make out, but it most likely is red with a white disc with a black paw print.
Yugoslavia is a nation no more. However there are persons who identify with Yugoslavia by heritage, language or ethnic dimensions. As communist Yugoslavia no longer exists, there are a minority of modern people who still identify in someway being "Yugoslavian" more so than Croatia, Serbia, Bosnia, Montenegro, Kosovo, Slovenia, or Herzegovina.
The Cherokee Language Flag is based upon a modified Cherokee Flag upon a language field.
The colours of navy blue and sea green reflect that language
is the water element of a persons identity. Like water that fills a
glass, whatever environment your early mind is shaped in you will take on that
identity. Learning a language is like learning to swim, and it takes time
and practice. Eventually an ocean of information overtakes the
mind. Many people can only swim or sail in one type of ocean. Some
persons who are native to the English Ocean in the United States can paddle a
little bit in the Spanish Ocean. But nearly everyone in the United States
can splash around in the kiddie pools of France, Japan, or China since they may
know a few words: like Bonjour! Shay Shay? Oui!
Domoarigato! It takes time and a lot of practice to sail in different Linguistic
Oceans, especially if you are a native to the English Ocean of Speech.
Remember that most people in Canada and the United States may speak English,
yet are not English. Thus one should not confuse language with ethnicity as is
often the case with Spanish speakers, since there are many people who sail the Spanish
Ocean their entire lives, yet do not have one drop of Spanish blood in the
heart. Likewise, there are many people with English names in the USA who
live their entire life in the English Ocean and have absolutely no
English blood flowing their veins.
Likewise many people in India learn to sail the Ocean of English at
school, yet have zero English Heritage.
