Very interesting site indeed! :)

I like the Lithuanian coat of arms. Also the lithuanian cities have nice ones.

Oh, I'll have to agree with Lithuania being the country with the nicest flag, but I am biased, so don't mind me ;)

My world just turned upside-down.

Come on... Latvia is nice. At least unique. How about having a "basic flag" with the common three colours, blue, red and white ;)

Might be, but the Danish one could be said to be even older.
The only thing that has happened to it is its dimensions have changed a bit. The square-shaped basic form of the Danish flag was the first one out there.
In our schools the Danish flag is taught to be the oldest one.
