Gibralter is in a special or rather spacial class of places to reside in a proverbial "Continental DMZ" or "Continental Twilight Zone." In between 36 degrees north to about 37 and 1/3 degrees north - Africa and Europe are parallel to each other. Thus Gibralter is both south of Africa and north of Europe, whilst being on the continent of Europe.
The flag design is known as a Cycladic Space Ensign, since the Cyclades are mostly in this spacial geographic sweet spot.
