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.

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."

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.
