The symbol in the Togo flag ratio is the golden ratio, a natural phenomenon shown in spirals, such as sunflower seed formations or galaxies, it is represented by the Greek letter phi.
Another Fact is that Denmark has the oldest flag that is still in use! From the Year 1219 all the way to now! But,Japan has the oldest flag that has been used at some point in history,with the first use being in the 7th Century!
7:20 is he stupid? That’s the flag of the Colorado Party in Uruguay. They’re not even socialist, they’re liberals. Like, bro, if you’re going to make a RUclips video at least get your facts straight.

Belgium's flag is proportioned 13:15 for some reason, which is almost square, but not quite. Qatar's flag is the proportionately longest country flag in the world, with an aspect ratio of 11:28. It is also the only country flag with a more uneven proportion than 1:2
about nepals flag, couldnt you just treat it like a rectangle while making the ratio? so like im guessing its a 1:1.5 ratio. meaning the height is 1.5x bigger than the width
0:57 The shape of the flag of Togo is what we call "the golden rectangle". Oh, and that φ (phi)? That's the golden ratio, with the defining property that φ²=φ+1; if the short side of a rectangle is to its long side as 1 is to φ, that rectangle is called the golden rectangle; if you cut such a rectangle into a square and another rectangle, that rectangle will be a golden rectangle.
I actually like Togo's ratio, it's the number phi = (1+sqrt(5))/2 and it's a very beautiful number because phi-1=1/phi and phi+1=phi^2. Personally much better than even the USA. Mauritania's flag has red.
Hey, you should change the thumbnail for corrections: 1. The flag of Nepal's ratio is equal to approximately 1 : 1.219, simplify that. 2. 1 : 𝜙 is approximately equal to 1 : 1.619, but it doesn't need it anyways. :)
There is a Mauritania flag from 0:18 - 0:20, look carefully at the left, the flag is in the middle alignment. You guys are not dumb, but forgot some of the informations.
φ basically means (1+sqrt(5))/2. It is not silly at all actually. φ is considered to be a beautiful number, it is everywhere in nature and the greeks even built many temples in 1/φ ratio and considered a 1/φ ratio rectangle to be the most beautiful of all. X3
That's the golden ratio,it is one of the solutions of the quadratic equation x²-x-1, it can be written as (1+√5)/2 and can be used to find the nth term of the Fibonacci sequence using the formula which is the first solution of the quadratic eq to the power of n minus the second solution to the power of n all divided by two,it can also be represented as the limit as n approaches infinity of a(sub n+1)/a(sub n) where a is the Fibonacci sequence

“And what is this goofy symbol” oh god who the hell doesn’t know that
As a flag addict I can tell you every ratio is perfectly ok!
I even like how different they all are, makes them more unique
Togo’s flag ratio: φ = 1+√5/2 ≈ 1.618034
0:59 It's the golden ratio. It's an irrational constant that is very useful in many equations.
Mauritania flag appear that until 2017, but, it changed their flag for this: 🇲🇷
